I hadn't heard much about this other than the announcement trailer, anyone excited about this? I figured I'd give it a shot.
I was also wondering if anyone knew how far along in beta they were. I got a Starcraft II beta invite the weekend before it was released, likely because they were sending out mass invites to stress test the servers in preparation of release day. Anyone know if this is the case for Lego Universe? The release date seems to be in October, so it looks like I just got semi-lucky.
EDIT: Ah, crap. It has an NDA on it. Not sure exactly how binding it is, I don't speak legalese. Here's an excerpt:
Quote:

So it looks like no screenshots or anything of substance from me.
