Brick in the wallet
LEGO has been a popular children's toy for many years, and we'll happily admit that we still play with it on the odd occasion because, ahem, we have younger relatives.

Review Mickey's Wild Adventure (PSone)

Miniature marvel
Over the years, the LEGO video game franchise has expanded into something of a phenomenon.

Review LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (PlayStation 3)
Blockbusters
Even the Dark Knight needs a little help now and then.
