This period of home-console-version porting continued on PSP through 2008, with the arrival of LEGO Indiana Jones and LEGO Batman. It's actually well worth checking out even today, as it's a very enjoyable game, but sadly it's one of the few titles in the series that is currently unavailable on PSN. It was ported by the team that had handled the main release and proved that the PSP was more than capable of handling the console versions of LEGO games. And what a debut it was - the game was a full port of the console release, merely with toned-down graphics and sound effects. It wasn't until the game's sequel, LEGO Star Wars II in 2006, however, that the series would make its debut on Sony's line of handhelds. The LEGO games have existed in one form or another since the mid-90s, but it was 2005's LEGO Star Wars that served as a breakthrough for the franchise, laying the blueprint for all future games as collectathon platformers with light puzzle elements that adapt part of a film series into a hilariously oddball retelling.

The Birth of a Franchise and Full Console Ports on PSPĪs with any good history lesson, it's best to start at the beginning. Both handhelds have been relatively powerful for their time, but as we'll see this hasn't necessarily translated into the games taking full advantage of their capabilities.

In this article I'll be looking back at the history of the franchise on Sony's handhelds, from its origins on the PSP right through to the latest releases on Vita (which sadly dried up after 2016), but in particular the quality of the ports on these consoles. Ever since the appearance of LEGO Batman 2 in 2012, however, Vita fans have been left baffled - the powerhouse handheld has seemed more than capable of handling the full console versions, yet owners have often had to settle for disappointing stripped-down ports.

The first game showed up just after the console's western launch ( Harry Potter) and releases continued well into 2016 ( Star Wars), each bringing us a different spin on the core gameplay ideas. If there's one franchise that's been a consistent presence on Vita - more than any other in fact - it's the LEGO series. By Adam Cartwright, posted on 11 March 2018 / 6,971 Views
