6 M-rated Lego videogames coming out soon

Following the success of "Lego Batman" and "Lego Indiana Jones" this year, not to mention the "Lego Star Wars" series the past few years, it's no surprise that developer Traveller's Tales is sticking with the little colored blocks.

But it's taking them in a new direction. Dateline Hollywood has exclusively obtained information on the next six Lego-branded video games in the works, and they're not the kid-friendly franchises that gamers have come to expect. Instead, Traveller's Tales has licensed a number of adult-oritented movies and is adapting them into its first slate of M-rated Lego videogames.

Torture porn is actually a better match with Lego than you might think. "You use the Lego blocks to build all sorts or gruesome weapons that you use to inflict brutal, unending pain on the people who have wronged you," a source working on the game tells us. The game's design documents mention a three-pronged Lego razor blade that can be inserted in all of the body's orifices simultaneously, as well as a rusty chainsaw that descends on a pendulum toward a trapped victim, though our source tells us there are hundreds more possibilities to use Lego blocks for torture.
