    why is MINECRAP in this? because of the sales volume?? please. first of all, minecrap sux for the pc. especially if you have an embedded gpu. what, you're gonna go out and buy a new pc JUST so you can play this fat piece of shit's game? because if you bought an incompatible pc/laptop BEFORE the game was released, you are pretty FUCKED. LIKE ME. worst 27 dollars spent EVER. i bought it for my son thinking, "oh i have this." what a fucking joke. and the forum is FULL of people complaining that they can't play the fucking "game" because it LAGS SO HARD. More than 90% of those "happy gamers". i'm selling my account for twenty usd if you want it. wanna make some of my money back. my son is miserable because i can't get this piece of shit to work. i mean, work out of the box, will you? i shouldn't have to alter code or download this or read that for this shit. And i most DEFINITELY should not have to spend more money on a compatible system JUST to be able to play this horse shit. this is america goddamn it and i like being the lazy, remote control holding woman i am. i have put more into trying to get this fucking joke of a JAVA PROGRAM to work than i had to reading Kant's Critique of Pure Reason in college. oh yeah i went there. bring it on.

    Minecraft in my opinion is actually really boring at first but after you get settled and start mining to the point where you get diamond thing it gets really fun. I didn't like it at the start too, but it grew on me, and if your like "Tobuscus" you can really have fun with it. I personally love the creepers, they can actually help you out if you need to dig a hole.

    For some reason a lot of people i know hate minecraft. never found out why though. sham my computers to crap to run it.

    The hilarious thing is that I can only play Minecraft on medium/low settings on a pc that can handle TF2 on high on a 100% crits server with no problems. On Minecraft, it chugs a LOT, especially at night, during a rain shower, and the Nether. Its even hard to play in sandbox mode because flying makes this thing go soooo slowwww.

    So, is the console version as expansive as this? And if it's NOT, is it available on Mac?

  • Person5 - December 16, 2011 4:54 p.m.

    the console version isn't nearly as expansive as the pc version (though this is the game you MUST play on a computer) there isn't a download client for mac OS that I've seen but you should still be able to play it in the browser until one is made

  • lazer59882 - December 15, 2011 8:36 p.m.

    i don't get this game. its literally just a sandbox for you to build your own game. how this could get a 9 is beyond me, but then again i shouldn't expect any better from the same media that thought little big planet was some kind of gaming revolution, when all it was was tools to build your own game.

  • huntreilly25 - December 15, 2011 9:18 p.m.

    have you tried the game? I would respect your dislike for the game if you had actually played it and were able to give concrete reasons for your dislike rather than just "not getting it". I understand that not everyone is going to like the game, but don't judge something before you give it a try.

  • gamebrain8505 - December 15, 2011 11:08 p.m.

    Well, actually it's not about making your own game like LBP, there is a story, there are many things wich you can not control, there are monsters, dungeons and such things to stimulate you. So, rest asured, this is not the "infinite resource, infinite possibility" thing, unless you specificly want it to be that.

    I literally play Team Fortress 2 with no frame rate lag whatsoever however the recent Minecraft keeps crashing. That's why this game deserves a 7. If he would've stopped the updates at 1.7, it would be an amazing game. The enchantment tables and the end, are two of the worst things about this game.

  • Cwf2008 - December 15, 2011 5:49 p.m.

    I think I'd enjoy it a lot more if the recent updates didn't make it lag like a bitch on my computer.

  • Net_Bastard - December 15, 2011 8:14 p.m.

    Optifine mod. I had the same problem until I downloaded that. Also you can allocate more RAM. reCAPTCHA: Igothe Original What original thing did I get?

  • BIOSback - December 15, 2011 4:09 p.m.

    Minecraft=Skyward Sword?

  • MetroidPrimeRib - December 15, 2011 2:17 p.m.

    But Minecraft is was better beforeit's release and it has more gamebreaking glitches then any game I've ever played...

  • talleyXIV - December 18, 2011 10:38 p.m.

    Name one gamebreaking glitch. Seriously, you can not.

  • MetroidPrimeRib - December 19, 2011 12:15 p.m.

    Major Chunk problems Creepers have terrible explosion distance (For instance, you could be 5 feet away one time and be safe and 5 feet away another and die. With fully enchanted explosive resistant armor)

  • MetroidPrimeRib - December 19, 2011 12:21 p.m.

    By "Chunk" problems I mean a part of a map can contain 100 creepers and grow so large or grow to a certain capacity it destroys the entire game. Or atleast makes a void. In the middle of your town or hunting grounds.
