Lego Factory - Online Lego Building Game

Lego's planning to go online. Can the magic of Lego really be captured by an online game?

Although this sounds kind of neat, and it makes sense that Lego would go this direction to stay in the game and toy market, it just seems...well...empty. The great thing about Lego is having the pieces in one's hand and manipulating them. When the structure or contraption is done, it's a real object to play with and enjoy.

But who knows, maybe they'll hit a sweet spot that can't be replicated in real life. In any case, I'm sure my hubby and the kids will at least want to give it a spin.
