Lego Universe Delayed Until At Least Next Year

 
Don't get your hopes up for Lego Universe coming out this year. In fact, you might not want to count on 2010 either. Kotaku is reporting that the "strategic decision" has been made to delay Lego Universe into at least the next year. But Lego director of business development Mark Hansen was also coy on whether LEGO Universe would be hitting in 2010. All we know is that they still intend to release it. "This is something Lego is very committed to. We see it as a major growth," Hansen said. (link)
