    Re: LEGO name branding (was: Re: Stuff I'd like to see...) —Steve Bliss
   (...) Except for those bricks that either (a) never existed or (b) haven't been produced for years, so the kid doesn't have any. While I think Ice Planet, Royal Knights, etc. are great, why did LEGO think it a good idea to include long-gone themes (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

    (...) He'll (...) Don't you think they have the "classic" characters to appeal to those of different Lego generations? Maybe it's in hopes of pulling former Lego fans out of their dark ages, and sell as many as possible? Markus (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: LEGO name branding (was: Re: Stuff I'd like to see...) —Scott Edward Sanburn
   (...) Hmm... maybe. I know I am not going to get it, I think it is just a plain awful video game. I would much rather see a space series Star quest or something. You could build your own ships and have different weapons for it and such, now that (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: LEGO name branding (was: Re: Stuff I'd like to see...) —Markus Wolf
   (...) I don't have it either, but i've played it before with a little kid from church who just had to show me. I rather like being able to put King Kahuka in a car against Redbeard the pirate. I didn't spend too much time on it, so I don't know the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: LEGO name branding (was: Re: Stuff I'd like to see...) —Scott Edward Sanburn
   Markus, (...) Oh, I am sure kids would like it. Being a gamer longer than I have a LEGO maniac, (I got an Atari 2600 in 1980, I started going crazy with LEGO shortly after!) I guess the game itself is pretty lame, the building and stuff is good and (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

    (...) Oh I spent hours on Atari, but the Commodore 64 was even better. With C64 you could get tons and tons of games just by making copies of all your friends.

   Markus, (...) Oh, yes, the Commodore 64. I had one as well. My first programming experience! :) There were tons of great games, Chopper Attack, Moon Patrol, that G.I. Joe game, etc. Russian Attack, there was one where you were a US Pilot and it was (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
