The character select screen in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is, frankly, ridiculous. A sea of tiny portraits and question marks swims up the screen, so massive that it seems almost counter-intuitive - is that Sakaar Hulk, medieval Hulk, or Maestro, the evil Hulk from the future? Ah who cares, let's give them all a try. Hearing the developers speak about the game, I wouldn't be surprised if that roster started a lot smaller, and they just got a bit carried away.
The best LEGO games have been more than the sum of their plasticky parts, and it's that line-up, and the love that's gone into assembling it, that looks like it'll make the difference here. LEGO Marvel 2 is still a game designed to be a totally smooth ride for kids - I played through a boss fight against burning Norse demon, Surtur that amounted to a series of "square peg in square hole" puzzles; The Witness this is not. That means most characters have an ability or two at most - which is when having a retina-scrambling number of them comes into its own. It's tough to get bored when there's always something new to try.
