But that's different. They're both very fun, but Minecraft is only a sandbox game, and (most) DS games have storylines.

Yeah, but then the game ends, and you get bored. Minecraft though, can be played for virtually forever.

Minecraft bores me eventually.

And Minecraft is made by around 10 people, whereas DS games are made by pretty expansive companies who hire lots and lost of pro programmers, so technically Minecraft developers are getting much more money than other programmers.

Command blocks will be so useful on Bukkit servers. You could make "scripts" using command blocks and redstone repeaters for timing lol.

But if someone were to somehow get it, by like, finding one that an op placed, you could pick block it, then spam a command. And you might even be able to run op commands with it. Which would be bad.

@werd I want regular clothes and a paintbrush or something so that you can make your own clothes (and armor too) without any PVP advantage.

I dont think pick block works like that   roll

Uh... Yes, it does.
BTW, I am still soft, on my test account.

Well a lot of times you can restart it. With some games, you can choose a different way to do your game.

The price of Minecraft is excessively expensive, since the money goes to such a small group of people.

I think it's a good price for a game that's ever-expanding, has countless FREE mods and texture packs, and comes with 4 game modes (including hardcore/adventure). It has a massive community, with FREE help on the website. The only thing not free is the files to the game. No need to pay monthly, or with every update. It's a pay-once deal. If you think it's too expensive, don't buy it, simple as that.

No, when you defeat monsters, they have a chance of dropping their headshmm  These can be placed like blocks. While I see some of this as just plain WRONG, I certainly will not object to a creeper cranium hanging over my fireplace.

But I don't have a fireplace...

I know what it is.  I've played it.  I just want to clarify.  And I probably won't play it.  For two reasons.  First, it's not free.  Second, I already play Roblox.  It has more variety.

That wasn't my point, no matter how good it was, Mojang doesn't need that much. If I was Mojang, I'd make it much cheaper. Actually no, I wouldn't because that would be unfair on the people who'd bought it before, but if I could set the original price, I'd make it cheaper.
