Some time ago, in a galaxy not far away (this one actually), gargantuan play material producer, 
Lego, hired the game development company 
NetDevil to create a new Massive Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG). Today, some updates and screenshots have been announced.
Quote:
-
The LEGO Group is working on a group of initiatives which in the coming
years will offer young and older LEGO fans all over the world new ways
of play and experiences with the LEGO brand. The famous brick and the
minifigure will come to life in the virtual world.
- The new LEGO Universe will combine both gaming, building and the opportunity for social networking on the very same webpage.
- The whole development process is happening in tight synergy with the dedicated LEGO fans. The fans try out the ideas the professional game developers are creating.
- According to the plans the LEGO Universe will be to experience on-line for a larger group approx mid 2008.
- Ultimately the LEGO Group want to offer the unique experience to play with the LEGO brick both virtually and physically together with your friends from all over the world, and you can even change from the physically to the virtual play as you like – “You are in control”.

Here at devotii we're particularly excited about this one. Because half of us still play with lego, and numberz has always wanted to level up his lego men.
