![]() has published that has a significant physical aspect to it. We missed the initial September 2015 release for logistics purposes: this is the first title that Warner Bros. Website: LEGO Dimensions is a year old already, but it’s new to the South Africa market. ![]() Platform/s: PS3 / PS4 / Wii U / X360 / XBO It’s smart, hilarious, and it does new and very clever things with its portal. While it does do that, it also turns out that the actual GAME is brilliant. Pessimists would say it’s a game that sells itself safely on the LEGO brand. Depending on how you look at it, it’s either the safest new IP in the genre, or the most ingenious. Marketplace segue aside, LEGO Dimensions is the new undisputed king of the toys-to-life genre. for the inevitable LEGO Dimensions sequel, and then sit back and let others do all the hard work while the cash piles up. Or maybe it’s entirely the point? Maybe Disney Infinity got canned because Disney knows they could just license LEGO Star Wars to Warner Bros. The fact that heaps of Disney’s franchises are already part of the LEGO brand ( Star Wars, Marvel, etc.) is beside the point. Disney Infinity is dead not even the largest entertainment company’s massive stable of franchises can stand up to LEGO. You want to know my theory? When LEGO Dimensions arrived on the scene (rather late in the toys-to-life genre’s existence), Disney took one look at it and pretty much bowed-out of the marketplace. How anyone can expect plastic, immovable figurines from Skylanders and Disney Infinity to compete with actual LEGO sets for a kid’s attention is laughable. The “toys” part is being handled by LEGO arguably the best toy brand on the planet. Eventually, the automaker removed the game after being unable to officially license it from Namco.Alright look, here’s the thing about LEGO Dimensions: it was always going to have an ENORMOUS advantage in the toys-to-life marketplace. In the past, Tesla made news for offering the game Pole Position, initially created by Namco and marketed by Atari, in its collection of games for its centrally mounted entertainment screen. Tesla has been known for references and "easter eggs" sourced from science fiction and other pop cultural works, Electrek notes, the rights for which may or may not have been as free to use as Tesla had expected, so it's not surprising that the automaker will make a change once again to remove an image or IP owned by another copyright holder. That's because HAL 9000, as a fictional character, happens to be intellectual property owned by MGM Studios, which produced the 1968 sci-fi classic. Tesla introduces 'Dog Mode' to keep pets coolīut a recent update to the sentry mode means it will no longer feature HAL 9000 Electrek now reports that the image of HAL 9000 will be replaced with something a little more generic-a glowing orange eye-in response to a possible copyright issue. Needless to say, Tesla makes life rough for those who engage in retro, 1970s types of crimes like breaking into a parked car or trying to steal its wheels and leave it up on concrete blocks. In cases of break-ins, the system blares music on full volume in addition to recording video from inside and outside the car. When the system detects a minor threat to the vehicle, it displays a message on its central screen warning that cameras are recording. The system used HAL 9000, the sentient computer from 2001: A Space Odyssey, as the default screen setting in Tesla vehicles when sentry mode is set on standby. The system uses the car's array of cameras, which are a part of the semiautononomous Autopilot driver assist system, to monitor movement around a locked Tesla when the mode is activated, recording video around the car if different types of threats are detected. Tesla's sentry mode has been a curious piece of tech its drivers probably didn't know they needed, but has become one that some now can't live without.
