Minecraft Alpha
Anyone play this game? Sort of a simple fun little game, that basically can be summed up as legos for adults. I'm sort of getting a little bored of it since it is pretty repetative (its only in alpha stage so I'm sure things will be improving), but I've only played single player so its basically me having to do all the work. There is a multiplayer version to this game where you can join a server and build shit with your friends. Some people have infact built some crazy shit.

What is the purpose of the game? Do you build things or is it like a puzzle style adventure game?

Ok, I'm at work atm so can't watch the vids, but is this for PC, xbox live or ? Looks intriguing for sure!

It's for PC. It's kind of a build your own FPS but not really. It's definitely intriguing.

Not really a FPS, unless all you do is go around shooting monsters with your bow and arrow, and that is both the least done thing, and could be easy phased out. |

I would suggest viewing a couple of the first video I posted (he basically has a series). I gives you some good insight on things to do when starting espically if you haven't played it before, it might get confusing and hard if you just jump right in.

I don't know a lot about it but have seen clips on tech and game sites. This one is my favorite because clearly this took a long time to do and went horribly wrong. lol

Havok are you looking to play the multiplayer part? What would you want to do.

Well I purchased it last night with a friend and I plan on setting up a private server sometime tonight to use the Multiplayer function. After watching a bunch of Youtube videos and browsing the interwebs, I got hooked.

By the way the graphics suck because if they were like realistic your computer would fry, or the worlds would have to be smaller. There are some map packs that will change the textures to better graphics (though nonrealistic). |

Wow, soooo hooked to this right now. Started playing on Saturday, didn't move from my computer for 5 freaking hours! Dangerously addictive! I'm having to set some objectives for myself each time I play so that I can pry myself away from the PC That and the girlfriend has standing orders to intervene if she feels its necessary.
