    Man I had SO MUCH Star Wars lego. We had, if I can remember correctly...

    - Jedi Starfighter
    - A-Wing
    - Cloud Car
    - Slave I
    - Tie Advanced and Y-Wing set
    - Landspeeder
    - Droid Starfighter
    - Anakin's Podracer
    - Imperial Shuttle

    I'm pretty sure we had more but oh man those were the days.

    We also had all six of the original Toa from Bionicle, and the Exo-Toa, and all the Borahk, and all the little guys (Matoran they were called I think).

    And I can't even begin to name all the random ones we have.

    I really need to go play with my brother's Lego now...

    When F-Zero was first out, me and some friends built our own concept F-Zero cars out of Lego. Mine was pretty rad.

    LEGO Batman seems to be just LEGO Star Wars with more vertically-oriented levels. which is not a bad thing, mind you

    LEGO Indiana Jones is trying a lot of new things, especially the physics-based whip mechanics.

    Olaf Trygvason was a cunt, all christianising Norway and such. Canute/Knut is a far better Viking name, because it looks like you misspelled cunt and got the n and u the wrong way around.

    Yeah he's a fucking cunt for that. It was the first Vikingish name that came to mind though.

    You know which lego pieces are awesome?
    The tank threads.
    I only had one set with them but oh god I made variations on that tank.
    The best was when you combined the cyberslam thing or whatever cannon with it.

    Oh shit just thought of something that they would never do but would be awesome.

    Bionacle figures. Like, the old-school ones, not these new crappy ones.

    But they'd be giants, see (compared to the LEGO folk) so they would be giant boss type things that people would have to use vehicles against and coordinate attacks on and shit.

    the sets from things you build in game will probably cost way too much

    BUT HOLY SHIT YES

    Oh shit those.

    Those are actually what I meant when I said "old-school". They were called Throwbots here, I guess. I just misremembered them as the earliest Bionicle figs.

    I had most of the original run of Slizers.

    Anyway, I made some pretty bad-ass customs with them before. I should take a picture of the figure I made.

    I am envisioning my LEGO airship made out of wild-west pieces (the log-cabin walls) and bristling with guns drifting slowly over a doomed landscape with the Super Mario Brothers 3 airship theme playing on loop.

    I'm trying to figure out if this game is going to bother having a currency or if they'll just use bricks. I don't MIND the gold coins and plastic greenbacks but I'm hoping this game is going to be a lot different from the majority of MMO games other than the LEGO spin.

    People on the internet who want to fit in? I don't know. It's hard for me to compare. I'm sort of like a LEGO elitist.

    I have friends who put me to shame, but when I tell other people about my involvement with LEGO, they sort of get wide-eyed and back away slowly.

    Also, be absolutely assured that the profanity filter will be quite tight, and TLC will stop at nothing to destroy your floating dongs the second they are made. If other policies in the past are a good indication, then a "Report as Inappropriate" button will be affixed on your UI somewhere.

    i can't think of a way that this could be good

    there will be be block limits on anything you build

    and retards ruining it for everyone

    and i wouldn't be surprised if they implement a micropayments system like magic the gathering online

    basically, i would put money on it being expensive and limited

    You're probably wrong, bongi. It won't institute a micropayment system because they are marketing to kids. If any disappointment happens, it will be based on the lack of complexity.

    The game will be mainly aimed at the 8-12 set, but much like the Star Wars games, Hanson expects that quite a few adults will be interested as well. But the main goal is to create a safe space MMO where kids can go to play comfortably without all the nonsense that many adult MMOs bring to the table. Regular chat will be a moderated system with canned questions and responses, but there will also be a free "friend list" chat that will be available to players with parental approved friend's lists.
