Remember a few posts ago I was singing the praises of the Unity plug-in for Flash games? Well all that fancy 3D magic has been used in the latest Lego Star Wars mini game, The Quest for R2-D2.

This is the first major brand I’ve seen using Unity, and it’s a bandwagon I would like to see the Disney’s and Nickelodeon’s of the world jump on, at least for a game or two. The Quest for R2-D2 looks polished to the point where it compliments the other Lego branded games like Batman and the recently released, Indiana Jones, but it still has the instant playability of a good web game.

I wonder what might be possible if this kind of Flash technology is used in an MMO. Perhaps we’ll see soon.
