Your Favourite Bionicle Website?

My favorites were the 2004 and 2005 designs. Mainly because of the Metru Nui skyline (which I've always loved) hanging in the background whilst you try to figure out those weird disc-codes and how to participate in "Ask Greg"

My favorite is the 2006 site, mainly because that's when I first heard about Bionicle, and the website had always been one of the most fun parts of Bionicle to me back then. I liked the 2006 site because it had the Piraka animations, and it had all of the older online games. The character bios were the main thing that got me started on liking the story of Bionicle.

The two very fist versions were simply amazing. But it might be nostalgy that makes me talk right now.I must admit that the early 2007 and 2008 websites were great looking.

I really liked the 2001-2003 sites which blended in-universe storytelling with out-of-universe news and product advertising. The collectible charts in 2001-2003 were excellent (the Krana chart perhaps most of all, with its many variants, official color names, and descriptions of each Krana's powers at each level). The site got frequent "story updates" throughout 2001 (in the form of MNOLG updates) and 2002-2003 (in the form of flash animations).Overall the Ninjago site is the one that's come closest to the 2001-2003 BIONICLE site's appeal for me. Part of this is the dense story info, which goes above and beyond what's really necessary by describing each weapon in around the same detail as was used for the BIONICLE collectibles in 2001-2003, and each character in around the same detail used for the old BIONICLE character pages. However, Ninjago's site suffers slightly in that its online games are a lot less compelling for me than the MNOLG was, and its interface is slightly more time-consuming to navigate.

I really loved that mahri website that wasn't exactly the official bionicle website, but was still official.
Do you mean the 2007 version of Bioniclestory.com?My personal favorite was....the 2007 site. I also really enjoyed the archive section.

BIonicle heroes website was one of my all time favorites because of it's good layout and stuning musical theme, if you haven't heard it yet you have missed out. 2006 was great, 2007 was better and the 2008 site was almost gold. Then I lost intrest in the site.

I have no Signature,

Why?

I personally don't remember each BIONICLE site, and I never used it much. I did like the Voya-Nui-era site, but that could be that that's the only one I remember visiting much at all.

I never paid much attention to the BIONICLE websites beyond '05 ish. Before that, I'd say it was at its peak before the massive redesign for '04. That's based on content more than anything else, because that redesign got rid of lots of epic stuff, in particular the Bohrok animations.

So, we all know that in each generation of Bionicle, there has been different website designs, with different games and features.But which was your favourite?My favourite was the early Barraki website.I first discovered it when I was about 8 or something. I was roaming around the Lego website when I noticed it. Curious, I went in on it. Not sure how I got there, but IIRC, it was hidden or something.Cue my 8-year-old self being scared to heck by the old mini-game where you shine around a flashlight underwater as Barraki fly at your face and screech. I remember how much it made me jump. No-one else here ever seems to mention it, though, which is weird.
In the depths of the ocean...no one can hear you scream.

Unless you are drowning there yourself. :fear:I remember that teaser. :P Never scared me as much as the laughing Makuta from the Defeat of the Bohrok-Kal flash episode. Seriously, that freaked us out. :blink:-Gata signoff.png

I too have fond memories of the 2001-2003 site. I think it was the best the site ever was. I like how Aanchir put it - as a blend between in-universe story telling while still clearly being made to advertise sets.And those flash animations were pretty good.~|ET|~

E-T... Phone home.

I barely remember the original 2001 site. My favorite was Bionicle story, just for the story. The layout was weird. :P
Bioniclestory.com, in my opinion, failed to tell the story and introduce it to newer fans. I think it's just a confusing site. o_O
It did a pretty good job at summarizing all the story years, but I think it fails to explain the entirety. It's like "this happens and then this happens", but BIONICLE doesn't work like that. Things like why Makuta overthrew Mata Nui aren't explained there.-Gata signoff.png

By story, I meant the serials. XD

That's not really the website's fault, though. :P-Gata signoff.png
