During the Holiday break, I had some time to sample most of the PS4 games I had already bought for my new PS4 Pro. I also rebought LEGO Dimensions for the PS4 because I was attracted to the PS4 exclusive Supergirl LEGO mini-fig. Now, I've played a couple of stages on the PS3, but I've restared my game on the PS4, and the best I've encountered so far is the Doctor Who stage. If you're a Doctor Who fan, you've got to check this out.
Here in the States, we're starving for a good Doctor Who video game. I heard that the Wii Doctor Who releases were horrible renditions and were better off staying on that side of the Atlantic. But having played LEGO Dimensions gave a very good taste of what a good Doctor Who game could have been. You control Batman, WildStyle, and Gandalf while all three meet the 12th Doctor voiced by Peter Capaldi himself. It was great seeing the Doctor and the TARDIS interior in LEGO form. It even has the same charm as a Doctor Who episode when interacting with the Doctor. Clara also made an apperance as you have to rescue her. During the gameplay part of the stage, you're battling Cybermen, Weeping Angels, and of course the Daleks. Of all three villians, the Weeping Angels were utilized most effectively when trying to solve puzzles while the lights flicker off and back on. You Doctor Who fans know what I'm talking about.
I don't think LEGO imensions itself is worth the purchase just to experience the Doctor Who stage, but it's a solid incentive to help justify the cost if not already. Then, there is the open Doctor Who world to explore if you have one of the Doctor Who mini-figs which gives you access to that world. There is also the Level Pack in which the storyline is Doctor Who specific. I'm still on the main LEGO Dimensions campaign. So I've yet to explore anything else.
