    Compulsions? My compulsion to collect each and every lego canister in Lego Batman is driving my 5-y.o crazy!

    “Max, just do a double-jump here and then switch over to a poison-resistant character and pull that switch!”

    “Daddy!! It’s hard!”

    Eventually he said, “Daddy, you’re no fun!” when I realized that I was going a little overboard.

    Geez, all the kid wants to do is punch some bad guys and break some stuff and I’m ruining it for him.

    Lego Batman is a great game for kids… once you get daddy to behave…

    any Rare platformer from the n64 era
