LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 - An Ingenious Game Idea From LEGO


Who doesn't know or never heard about LEGO? It's one of the most associated brand names when we're talking about kids toys.Moreover, if we're talking about bricks construction toys, people tend to say it's LEGO, no matter what the brand is.That's the power of association developed by this famous toy manufacturer.The only problem that it currently faces is the preference changes.Kids, nowadays, prefer to spend hours shooting their enemies in Halo Reach than playing with the colorful bricks to construct a hospital, a firemen office of even a city.Some of them still love the construction process (the main idea behind LEGO), but prefer to do it by playing the video games, not the real bricks.Of course, LEGO may answer their needs by making its own game title.However, it has recently launched an even better idea to strike back.LEGO combines its traditionally famous building system with a microcomputer brick and intuitive programming software.The combination resulted in ingenious game named LEGO Mindstorm NXT 2.0.Mindstorms NXT 2.0 let kids build an interactive and programmable robot that can see, speak, feel and move.The performance of the robot greatly depends on the program embedded in it.Don't worry about the complexity, since a comprehensive manual is included in the package.Even better, a website dedicated for all Mindstorms NXT 2.0 players are available.Kids can visit this site and see various LEGO creations from players all around the world.They can see both the design and the program.They could also discuss with their friends about how to build the best robot, or even compete against each other.It's an ideal toy to promote social interaction.This toy is suitable for kids from wide range of ages.Simple robot can be easily and quickly built.However, to build an advanced robot may require longer times and involve more complicated programming.Mindstorms NXT 2.0 is truly a great answer from LEGO to re-capture kids' heart and interest from playing digital video game.Many parents are complaining that their kids spend way too much time in front of the TV to either watch the movies or playing video game.They're afraid of the negative effects that may arise from this bad habit.However, parents do have the solution now, the Mindstorms NXT 2.0 from LEGO.The only question remains now is whether or not you, as parents, willing to invest in your kids mind and social development?

This review is from: LEGO TECHNIC Mobile Crane 8053 (Toy)
I bought this kit for my son, and he's had a lot of fun with it, many hours of entertainment.
None of the Technic series Lego's come with the electric motor with them, that has to be bought seperate.
