Yeah, I played in the beta for several months. Resisted my family's urging that I try it out....and once I did, I was hooked. The game is a lot of fun. I played a summoner for Assembly, and thought that was OK, but was very happy when all the ninja gear and quests came up.
hmm 10 bucks a month, per account; bit much for a kids mmo considering most people have more than one kid that would want to play with their brothers and sisters (like mine). I didnt see the specs for what is needed to run it either.
Took a bit to find these on the lego site; so am posting them here for all of our convience:

We just have the 1 account, and my wife, my son, and myself each have a character. Sure, it'd be neat to play as a family, but honestly, we only have one computer capable of running it right now. Multiple accounts are lost on us.
If you want to play together in some MMO game with your kids, try Wizard 101. Free, and not terribly heavy on the computer resources.
I've been looking in the stores lately, but I haven't found the game anywhere. It looks so cool.
