That was pretty funny.
I've actually been addicted to this game since beta. Now I can't stop playing FTB packs. It's the ultimate sandbox game.

Our school district is looking to start using it in some of the elementary classes for instruction.

:biggrin:

It's true, but MC is the best game ever as far as I'm concerned. I too started playing in Beta(1.5)and now play FTB/Technic Mod Packs. There's so much variety in MC that there's a never ending things one can do with it.

Minecraft looks really crappy and I don't get the appeal.

Pure vanilla I go through pretty quickly. I have a custom FTB server that I play on with some friends though and there's a lot of content to mess around with and try different ideas. Oh and for the looking crappy part, well there's only so much you can do with it but there are some texture packs out there that make the game look better.

 

[Paratus]

That was great!

The Skyrim one is funny as hell.

Portal was good too. But the end of the video, where he says stupid stuff in his epic voice was Gold Jerry! Gold I tell you!

Funny, but the bigger deal here is that I learned Digg still exists.

There are shader mods as well.

If you haven't seen minecraft, the story of mojang, it's a pretty cool documentary.

I just finished watching this about 5 minutes ago. Fantastic film! Definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it.

When they were digging the obsidian they should had it fall in lava under it.

 

[waggy]

i enjoy playing it at times. My kids though love the game. they spend more time on it then they probably should.

it's no suprise. he would would sit and play with his legos for hours

That trailer is amazing, and spot on. Had some relatives want me to get in playing with them as they were visiting over the 4th weekend. Minecraft is such a throwback to some of the old games where you're given a map and can just go do whatever you want, without any missions, checkpoints, cutscenes, etc.

But, beyond the initial exploration curiosity, the game is definitely geared towards the kids who have endless quantities of free time to waste. I just can't do that with this game...

 

[Red Squirrel]

Haha that's awesome. I play on and off, it's fun, but being Java I find it starts to get really laggy as the map gets too big. I need to move the server to my new vm host though might get better performance.

Been a fan of Honest Trailers, and now by Honest Trailer Voice Man Voice, Honest Game Trailers.

So true on many aspects.

Trailer is 100% honest. :thumbsup: It's a game you get for the exploration and creation potential, not the graphics.

Was gifted a code during Beta 1.2_02, it paid for itself several times over. Haven't played much lately, though...they keep adding too much new stuff.

The Modern Warfare trailer is a riot.

Minecraft looks really crappy and I don't get the appeal.

Here is a short excerpt from the documentary Minecraft: The Story of Mojang. It's a two minute clip of Peter Molyneux describing why Minecraft is so popular. He also compares Lego to the modern gaming inustry.

If you don't understand the appeal of Minecraft after watching this I doubt you ever will.

You'll never understand the appeal until you actually play it for yourself.

You never liked legos?

 

[Red Storm]

You never liked legos?

This. If you like Legos you will like Minecraft. If you don't like Legos then you're an asshole.

 

[Rakehellion]

You never liked legos?

Yes, when I was 8.

Minecraft looks really crappy and I don't get the appeal.

People either get obsessed with it or don't like it at all, I don't know any casual players. I was told if I played it I would get addicted and fall in love. I played it and it was lame *shrug*

and yes to everyone else I loved Legos, and no this isn't damn Legos. Legos >>>>>>> Mindcraft, don't fucking even compare the 2.
