Minecraft

So Minecraft... I am still not sure about the Mojang game that came out a couple of years ago. I tried it out back in 2011, when I heard of all the hype about it. Figured I would be hooked one the game instantly, but to talk you the truth... I wasn't. I played it for maybe a week but, kept going back to LittleBigPlanet to unleash my creative juices. Plus, I am not much of a PC gamer. Console all the way baby!

Recently I bought a iPhone 5 and was surfing he web for some good games to get. Came across a review for Minecraft Pocket Edition, and it intrigued me to give it another try. This time I was hooked. Played for over eight hours straight, building a baller two story house with a creepy Evil Dead basement. Any spare time I have, like waiting in line, a bus ride, sitting in the doctor's office about it get a STD check or taking a massive shit, I am mining the fuck out the side of a mountain. Even just walking around destroying zombies and slaughter pigs or sheep is fun.

One thing I have to mention is that I am bad at Minecraft. It took me forever to learn to play it, I still don't know how to farm. My building skill are sub par at best. I have seen some awesome shit from other people online. My creations looks like a three year old threw some Legos together. None the less, I am starting to see what the hype is about. Don't think I will ever get the PC or Xbox version. I know there is more features, but I really like having this little creative sandbox game in my pocket at all times.

Just a few thoughts for anyone looking to get into Minecraft. I suggest giving it a try.
