Anyone here play this? http://www.minecraft.net/
Seems there no way to play it free, except for some "cracked" versions of the software and servers, probably full of nasty malware. So you have to fork out 15 Euro for the game.
I'd like to try it out, but it's got a certain FarmVille feel to it, so I don't want to play alone. I'd like to do it with people who are willing to Skype voice chat while we play.

Great way to waste time and doing a bit of socialising but as far as 'games' go it's looks about as entertaining as drawing phallic objects in MS Paint.

I would enjoy a Wii bodybuilding contest entitled Mein Kraft!

It's worth watching, the guys are pretty funny.
I can't see the point of playing this alone, ever, but in a 'social setting' with people chatting and taking the piss, it might be fun.

Originally posted by CrowleyHa! I take it back. I'd only ever seen people playing it on their own, but the multi-player does look like a bit of fun.

Everyone screams like a girl when they spot a creeper!
Anyone else interested in playing with Daemon Sin and I, just PM me for details for our Private Network.
