Minecraft

Options
So, my fiance was playing this game on our big screen (60") the other day it was in 8-bit form and it looked kinda cool so I asked him what it was. He stated that it was minecraft. After bugging him for a week to get it for me he finally has and I've falling in love with this simple game.

Anyone else play? What are your thoughts on it? :D

    I play it on my phone only at the moment. Its a bit restricted in what you can do so I was getting a little bored with it. However, the latest update this week has added crafting and more things in the environment, so I am back at it.

    I think I'll end up buying the PC version as my Xperia Ray is just a little small to play it on... but the huge glass wall (with ramparts and walkway) that I built around MY part of the island has got the zombies more than a little pissed. I'll have to see if I can craft some trebuchets and mangonels to fire across the wall at them :)

    I might get it for Xbox live when it comes out, just because I prefer lounging around when doing games like this.

    I refuse to touch that game until my school semester ends and it's summer. It's ridiculously addicting.

    It is very addicting. I love to play and while I wait for things to be made (stone and glass mostly) I like to watch yogcast on youtube. Those british guys make me giggle! XD

    For those of you who asked, Minecraft is basically a block world you start off in the middle of no where and your goal is to survive (make your own axe, shovel, sword, pickaxe, etc). :) it's a simple yet very addicting game. go to youtube and watch some videoes...my friend has made a few of his own it's fun.

    When I first saw Minecraft I thought, "How silly, why is this ugly game so popular? What is everyone raving about? I guess I have to check it out." So I started playing... I lost the next few weeks in a mining-induced frenzy, but did end up with a cathedral, viking lodge, extensive tunnel system, and Death Star. ::One more block::

    That's exactly what I thought about it at first!

    nah you dont need to buy the version, theres only a small difference ie: the ability to get on servers, its pretty much an offline version.

    I don't know what features the free version has, but I bought the full one for playing with friends. I find it's a lot more fun than playing alone.

    Minecraft is an amazing game. I've never played it on the PC but I have it for the 360. My fiance, my brother and myself play it constantly. I never thought I would be interested in a game with such horrible graphics. But there's so much to do and so many places to mine. It keeps me very occupied. ^__^

    ive seen the captainsparkles one and all of the yogscast.. the yogscast one was the greatest. it was hilarious and great to see the game from several others points of views.
