If you know any friends with it, make a server for usage, then you can use server mods etc. to make REALLY cool things with a bit more ease.

My one hope to find one other person who is not bewitched by Minecraft, dashed... I don't think I've played a game quite this pointless since "The Sims". I'm truly disappointed in you Mr. Croshaw. You're the only person who could have given this game the spotlighted drubbing it deserved.

You've gone soft, mate.
Yahtzee is too much of a creative person to NOT like minecraft. So he would have been the last person to find minecraft boring.

A big thank you to Yahtzee for furthering the world's knowledge of the existence of New Zealand.
OT: always nice to see a review of a game/creative device with more substance and innovation than simply sticking a hat on a storm trooper clone and calling it a revolutionary gaming experience.

You can make a c(l)ock with it though, which is infinitely helpful but that's about the only thing that's helpful that you can make with gold.
Fixed it for you. :D

Actually, gold is excellent as a vanity item. I'd like it to stay the way it is. If we could build mannequins, perhaps, it would make a bit more sense to use gold.
It has a very realistic portrayal, I think... You spend dozens upon dozens of hours trying to acquire fucktons of material that is, not only found very deep underground, but also very rare (not to mention useless), to build a giant cock.
I like that somehow. It should stay as it is because I think it's quite unique to Minecraft. You have this useless thing you're supposed to bust your ass to get, with which you get nothing, yet everyone strives to stockpile it and do shit with it.

Retardinator once tried to build a golden tower, but couldn't find any gold.

Being an American, I actually did know about the flooding in Brisbane (even donated what little I could to help out). Not saying much, and even I think most Americans are xenophobic self absorbed assholes. But some Americans are kinda alright. Although that might just be my bias of being one.
Now I hate xenophobia as much as the next guy, but I just think some of these things should be taken with a grain of salt. I know America isn't full of arrogant prats, hell some of my good friends are American, and I think most rational people are probably aware of that. I just think things like Yahtzee says are intended as being humorous without malicious intent. For example, i get annoyed when someone puts down New Zealand with malice aforethought, but I just laugh it off when we're jokingly referred to as hobbits or sheep shaggers. It's just lighthearted jabs. All I'm asking of those willing to listen is please do not be too offended by quips and gags which are intended harmlessly. Perhaps learning to laugh at ourselves is the first step towards resolving so many of the needless conflicts in the world today.

I used to frequent a server with shit-tons of servermods, but I got bored of even that. Nothing can keep people entertained forever.

I love Minecraft its so fun and worth the money...its a game that's constantly changing and evolving and has so much custom stuff for it...its better than paying 60 bucks for regular games that have like 6hours play time.

woops that was the reply button and not the quote.
anyway, seasoned minecraft players will probably realize I'm talking about how to avoid spawns in your buildings

Wow, Minecraft? I've only heard of it, never bothered to download it though I might now (sort of like fable with fanboys :))
Anyways I thought if he ever did a free mmo that he would hate it, but I guess not... Now I'm actually wondering if he would hate runescape or not?
(crowd of people) Noooooooo! runescape sucks. I can't believe anyone even plays that.etc.etc...
Anyways, I still think he would hate it, but it might be funny.

p.s. I'm I still the only one that thinks it'd be funny if he reviewed a pokemon game?

Yeah this game is pretty awesome. Me and my friends payed for it and have a server that we just mess around on. We turned monsters off and use give [name] [resource#] quite a bit lol, but then we couldn't really do the stuff we wanted to do if we had to actually get the resources. I find making shit to be the funnest part of this game, like my 2 way automated minecart ride.

And blowing up large sections of land with TnT is always a hoot.

Yep, those creepers are a curse sent from the bowels of hell to be sure. :p Just wait untill you're digging for the near impossible diamond and searching great caverns the size of switzerland just to find said shiny minerals.. only so you can make a pickaxe.. to mine the hard to make and not die Obsidian.. only to open a gate to hell itself you have to make precisely.. and then step through to die from giant flying ghosts that cause you to combust when they greet you. :p

Ah minecraft furthering the borders of epic epicness!

Been playing since the alpha and finally, finally got my hands on some of the rarer resources (I freakin strip mined a couple worlds to the frakking bedrock till might Notch had pity on me).

So now I'm taking the reasonable route and making and obsidian portal to the nether..... in the shape of a stargate.

.....it's just how my mind works.

Also I would like to jump on the "the america jokes are getting old" I've been able to laugh at a fair few of them, but at some point it just hits "oh... good another one". Like a crappy top 10 list from letterman or some such. Like any other joke, it's best when it's well timed. The COD:BLOPs bit about the US having a war hard on? Well timed and amusing even to a veteran, on a subject even I joke about when I find a way to make light of it (see avatar). Repeating it every week kills that timing and just makes it tired and lame.
