It’s hard to give a true review when this product was bought to be given as a Christmas present. Review is based upon other reviews, not my own.

In a nutshell we have a 2001 computer which does not meet the required video card requirements (as well as 2003 Laptop, the same lack of requirements). After spending time with Dell, on-line and finally at the EIDOs Chat Rooms, it is apparent that this is not an isolated problem. In fact may people in the EIDOs chat room were much harsher in their criticisms of EIDOS, Star Wars and Lego.
In short the game did not run at all. In order to so, we would need to buy a new computer or invest in a new card which might or might not run the program properly.
A game being produced for the mass market, and age group, by a brand name such as Lego, should be making a bigger issue of the need for state of the art hardware. Our nine year old selected this after doing on-line research (all glowing, see the rest of the Amazon reviews) as well as the school yard buzz.
We are now stuck with a $30 opened package (not returnable to Amazon or anyone else) and no way to play. Well at least it is an attractive box and will look good on the shelf.

Don’t buy this game unless you are absolutely positive that it will work on your system. On second thought, just don’t buy this game at all. I spent $30 on this game for a birthday present and now have a heart broken son because it won’t work on an almost new Dell computer. I can’t believe that a game would be sold without warnings on the box if it won’t run on a new computer with Intel graphics. I’m sure alot of us don’t know the exact numbers and specifics of all the innards of our computers. I’m going to look closely at who makes any of the games I purchase in the future and if it’s from Eidos I will not be buying it.

I can’t get the game to play because I don’t have a graphics card that supports Pixel Shaders v1.1
So I bought the game for $20 but now need to pay $75 for a graphics card and get it installed somehow????
UGH!
