Lego Indiana Jones whips up 4-player co-op

As for game mechanics, the whip on Wii will function similar to the lightsaber waggle and not have "1:1 remote-to-whip synchronized control." Though the Nazis have been removed from the game, the producers say the movie plots will stay intact. They also say despite puzzles being designed for two players, the console versions will support up to four players simultaneous. Lego Indiana Jones should be ready for discovery June 3.

No Nazis? No Sale! ;)

The removal of Nazis is a corporate decision by Lego, a European company that sells its products worldwide. While I am disappointed by the games and toys not staying true to the original films, I also understand Lego's desire to not provide toys with Nazi imagery. As a parent and an adult, I can respect Lego's decision, and still enjoy their products.

Regardless of what JayVe said, removing original content because of sensitivities is a sad trend. Why rob your children of the joy that is killing Nazis?
MarkHawk @ Feb 18th 2008 8:15PM
There are plenty of E titles that have Nazis... like ... Red Alert one had Hitler... right?
Is just the removal of the logo? Will I be fighting grayed uniform soldiers from a German WWI style tank?

No Nazis means no Indiana Jones and, therefore, no Lemmiwinks.

Is it 4-player online co-op for the 360? Otherwise I'll have to pass.
Scott @ Feb 18th 2008 2:45PM
Read the original article. All console versions will have 4 player co-op.
Anticrawl @ Feb 18th 2008 2:49PM
I read the article, read my post. I said 4-player ONLINE co-op. The article neither confirms or denies my question, don't be an ass.

So it shall be, Rollins.

Reading these LDF comments is like watching a rubber-band powered rocket trying to leave the atmosphere.
BJ Moneyheffer @ Feb 18th 2008 2:52PM
Haha, no truer words have ever been spoken. I wonder if they realize the joke wasn't funny the first time.
A @ Feb 18th 2008 2:58PM
wait- how can there be no Nazis???? Are you kidding me? That's like Star Wars without the Empire! Lord of the Rings without Mordor!
Is the German market so important that they need to take the essence of the IP away from it? Complete BS. How about to ritual cult sacrifice while we're at it. Then we can rename it 'National Treasure' and forget about it.
I was pumped for this game. Now I don't care.
Travellers Tales... I hate these guys...
Jeff Williams @ Feb 18th 2008 3:02PM
Agreed. You can't do Indiana Jones without Nazis. Political Correctness has now invaded video games. Sad.
Pimliconite @ Feb 18th 2008 3:08PM
How the hell is it politically incorrect to include nazis? All Indy does is either kill them graphically or allow them to melt themselves by incurring the scorn of god. Are they the Badds now? Who the fuck is he keeping the Ark away from, who the hell is trying to steal the holy grail? What! the! fuck!
Mr Khan @ Feb 18th 2008 5:21PM
Germany would be the problem, of course. It wouldn't be legal to sell a game with Nazi imagery (which is legally censored speech in Germany)
And Business, sadly, is about making money in more markets
SKI @ Feb 18th 2008 6:36PM
It's just the removal of swastikas, they are still German Nazis.
jman @ Feb 18th 2008 7:54PM
I agree a second time....even if the nazis were bad they still existed....ppl just need to grow up these days and learn to move on....and you can barely call it indiana jones without nazis!!!
Hyams @ Feb 18th 2008 3:01PM
No sodomy? :(
Nic Bell @ Feb 18th 2008 3:08PM
I believe the removal of the Nazi's is not tied to this video game or even video games in general, but rather to Lego. The real Lego toys also have the Nazis removed. I believe it is their company policy that forced the removal, not Lucasarts or Traveller's Tales.
Pimliconite @ Feb 18th 2008 3:12PM
Hmm. I guess the kids might stage a "Lil' Liquidation of the Ghetto" with a bunch of nazi legos. Still, it fucks the indy trilogy without them.
BJ Moneyheffer @ Feb 18th 2008 3:20PM
Of course no sodomy. *over expressive ;)*

Also announced: Shortround is no longer a young Asian stereotype. A young Shia LaBeouf, as seen in the early episodes of Even Stevens, will be put in his place.
A @ Feb 19th 2008 3:34AM
first off- short round is amazing (no time for love dr jones!)
second- your icon is almost as amazing as short round. fizzgig ftw.
