Minecraft continues to boggle the mind. Is there anyone left that does not have a copy?

I've never played it and I don't understand it when I see it.

That's OK. I've bought 3 copies so I got your back.

Me. Don't even know what it's about.

I have bought it twice, PS3 & 360, then $5 to upgrade to PS4 & XB1.

My kids love this game.
My younger son made a Hunger Games world where the two of us battle it out. He slaughters me everytime. I have a 65" screen at home and I still can't decipher what's happening on the screen.
It's like I have a Flux Capacitor and someone sent me back in time to play Atari 2600 games.

I find it fascinating that this generation of new gamers has the best technology and graphics at their fingertips and yet they'd rather play tablet games which have graphics that would be chastised on an NES.

[Rudy]

I don't care for it but the kids love it. Build a virtual Lego world that you can interact with.

NCAA would be on that list if they ever bring it back. And it'd be so easy to do too.

Now I am hooked again on Minecraft. Working on my largest creation yet. Building a fortress in the sky. Only one way up and double fenced so no Creepers destroying everything. Hate those fuckers.

Yeah soo.... easy to write those checks to the lawyers and losers who did not take advantage if their free education
