It’s a well known fact that LEGO is one of the best things ever invented in the whole sphere of existence across every single plane of reality. Get LEGO bricks and build a car, a plane, a hotel, a killer robot, a fish, whatever you like. Incredible.
Then LEGO made the bold leap into the world of computing, and it made this bold leap well. LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Indiana Jones and now LEGO Harry Potter have all been megasaurus maximus prime.
But what madness could be next? An online LEGO MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game, that’s what! Observe this trailer and sob at just how good this game could be.
Unless you’re missing a vital piece of your brain, you’ll be all excited at the prospect of a LEGO multiplayer game now, where it seems that a brave LEGO Knight can battle alongside a sturdy LEGO mechanic to defeat some curious purple LEGO baddies.
Well Eurogamer report that it’s due for release in October, which means it’s another game to add to my seemingly insurmountable list of ‘Games being released around the end of 2010 and the start of 2011 that I want to play lots’. I, for one, shall be looking forward to the build up…
The build up? BUILD up? Build? LEGO? See what I… did… there?
Not wanting to toot my own horn too much (ahem) but I’m actually in the closed beta for this, and apart from running like an asthmatic fat kid on a treadmill on my laptop, it is indeed pretty damn hella mega awesome.
Only trouble is, I’m under NDA so I can’t talk about it…
*hears knock at the door*
Toot away my friend, toot away.
I’ll try to accompany you with some tooting of my own horn.
OK I’m confused now.
