I do like the LEGO games. I did not have the right consoles when the Star Wars games started coming out (so I just saw them at a friend's), but I got some of the more recent ones, including the first Batman on the PSP.
I like the gameplay (collecting things, solving puzzles by destroying and building, dying no matter how many times). I also loved how the portable versions used to be the same as the home console versions, just with downgraded graphics.
Now I accept the new portable versions as different and "lesser", but I would still rather have the full versions ported to the portable consoles.
About the Marvel Super Heroes game... It is very different from normal LEGO games. There is very little building and puzzle-solving. However, its vast character selection (even on the PS Vita, although the PS3 has tons and tons more characters) and its defeat all the enemies the game throws at you make it seem more like a Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 (ignoring the fact that MUA 2 was bad, in my opinion). Since I love MUA, this being non-LEGO-like is forgiven.
Also, my only platinum throphies in the PSN so far are from three LEGO games: Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, Marvel Super Heroes, and The Lord of the Rings.
I may someday buy the "Hobbit" games (I would rather have a single game with the whole story than one for each movie, but perhaps some day they will release this), and the LEGO movie game. I would buy this since I liked the movie.
