     IRC Nickname: Maxrobinsun Group: Emeritus Posts: 152 Member No.: 2095 Joined: October 16, 2009 Total Events Attended: 0    | Just wondered if anyone here owns/has played Minecraft. For those interested the site is here. It's an amazing game which is basically a sandbox game to end all sandbox games. Whilst the free version is limited in block size, if you pay the map is limited to 8x the surface area of the earth (ie effectively infinite) The multiplayer is a bit buggy but it's by far and away then best, most entertaining game I have played in a long long time (and it's only €10). Picking it up now gets you half off and all future updates and expansions free. Some of the stuff he plans to do is amazing. (Linking servers via portals to make what could essentially become and non-subscription based,distributed, sandbox MMO). It's platform independent, heavily modable and incredibly lightweight (or at least as lightweight as Java can be  ). Also if you find the 8 bit graphics a little bit poor, you can download textures packs which make the game a whole lot prettier (requires ability to open a jar but that's about it). --------------------  Joined September '04 | ||

| IRC Nickname: Spicy63 Group: Emeritus Posts: 785 Member No.: 50 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 0 | I picked it up a couple months back after finding out about it on reddit. Here's the subreddit for anyone interested: http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/ It's definitely entertaining, you'll find yourself saying that you may play some Minecraft for half an hour before your shower then find yourself in front of the computer a few hours later. I haven't played it in a while or kept up with the updates, though, --------------------  | ||

It's not quite working in SMP yet though however it's his top priority apparently. Redstone works in SMP which is nice and he has added a few new features and blocks. -------------------- Joined September '04 | ||

They'll run away and aggressively accuse you of "attacking" them and their "beliefs". I'm sorry, please, keep teaching our kids that they'll burn in hell if they don't believe.
