Minecraft players are insane. Not Lannister insane, but still.

It's a good Series for sure... one of my favorites but then again I read a lot & have lots of favorites


-Wheel of time (1/3 of the way through last book atm)
-Game of Thrones
-Malazan Book of the Fallen
-Peter F Hamilton Books (Void Trilogy & Nights Dawn Trilogy)
-Brent Weeks "Night Angel Trilogy"

The list goes on but those my favorites atm.  I'm probably reading 25 different series though.  If I get to the end before a new book is out I start another..

Been thinking about reading it, been thinking about watching it, been doing neither.

That is one hell of a piece of work man, unbelievable! I can't imagine the obsession that went along with creating that.

I have an extremely hard time seeing why so many people are addicted to that game.  My little brother is so darn hooked on it though, that it's a little frightening.  

Guess it's all relative considering my UO addiction.

It's like playing with legos but with no cleanup, all kinds of cool add-ons, and infinite blocks at no additional cost.

My kids love it, I think it's one of the coolest games created in a long time. Extremely creative and amazing design opportunity. Their last series of projects were to create their own Wipe-Out (the show) zones then challenge each other to run through them. Then it was creating amusement park rides. Now they're on to building mansions.

I'd much rather see my kids playing Minecraft over WoW or UO TBH; although I prefer even more that they unplug instead.
