An acquired taste though. http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/minecraft/critic-reviews http://www.tomshardware.com/news/PC-Gaming-minecraft-Markus-Persson-Commodore-128,12532.html http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/16434...ecial_Award.php There's free demo to try out, and if it hooks you, it hooks you hard..

Cworth Member Registered: 06/30/04 Posts: 1003 Loc: Pennsylvania	Originally Posted By: peppergomez meh...isn't minecraft one of those stupid phone farmville type games? No...far from it. I love the game.Never thought I would just based on screenshots. I started watching Paulsoaresjr's Survive and Thrive videos on Youtube and then some of his other Minecraft videos and bought the game.Now I am hooked on it. http://www.youtube.com/show?p=1TsL9_2_Qy4&s=1 It is simply a very fun basic game that just proves that graphics do not make a game good...gameplay is the number one factor.

I can not wait for his alpha release. _________________________ *sigh* http://agw.bombs-away.net RoF: =AGW= Master Blood, Guts and Oil, My youtube channel

JMark Member Registered: 04/20/05 Posts: 240 Loc: Oklahoma City, OK	Game name has been chosen! Quote: After several weeks of trying to come up with a good name for the game, we finally decided not to learn from previous experiences and pick a name that's already kind of in use by a huge existing franchise. After playing around with names like "Elight", "Wind Commander", and "Steve Online", we finally settled on the very catchy name "Mars Effect". - Notch marseffect.net
