    Lego Star Wars II Sells Like Mad

    Lucas Arts dropped us a line pointing out that their Lego Star Wars II game, out for one week, has already sold more than 1.1 million copies across the eight platforms it was released on.

    Yeah, but you might as well say that's for only seven of the platforms since the DS version has got to be generating negative sales. As in returns.

    "There's definitely something for everyone in LEGO Star Wars II, and the sales and reviews so far are proving it," said Jim Ward, president of LucasArts. "This is the type of fun, accessible game everyone in the family can enjoy. It appeals to so much more than just the traditional gaming audience."

    Best part? The press release quotes my Rocky Mountain News review of the game. Ammo for that inevitable conversation in the corner office that always seems to be looming over my head.
