TIME Magazine Lists Minecraft in a Top 10 List
TIME Magazine recently assembled a "Top 10 Games of 2011" list, and named Minecraft in the #1 spot! They note the games' nearly endless, player-driven complexity and open-ended design as major draws, adding that "[Minecraft is] so great, it should be on the list every year." The game was lauded for its replayability and overall "fun" factor:
Quote fromThe complexity comes from you: the Minecraft universe is so endlessly, pleasurably reconfigurable and customizable that it rewards you for the zillions of hours you sink into it by becoming a reflection of your imagination.
Minecraft's popularity is already well-known in gaming circles, but with each passing day, it becomes a known and loved fixture in more and more places; it is, in many ways, a cultural icon - one which is embodying a new generation of gaming. Who will be next to discover this amazing game? Time will tell!

Posted Dec 7, 2011It is one of the greatest games I have ever played, and it has made my life awesome. It is truly a sandbox game, with the endless possibilities of things to do. It's your world, your own, your story, you wrote it...
And you get to blow stuff up and burn whatever's left. That's fun too.
With that said, I have two words to say: I approve. Of this game, of it's community, and everything. Minecraft is my story and I wouldn't have it any other way.
So, finally, I have one question for you... how will you write yours?
