Weekly Roundup - You're in the Jungle

We've got some exciting news from around the gaming network this week! This Roundup talks a bit about the recent weekly snapshots - which feature ocelots (and kittens!), dense & lush jungle, smarter skeletons & zombies - as well as LEGO's official announcement of the all new, 100% official Minecraft LEGO sets! Elsewhere around the network, we talk about the now-absent Blizzcon for this year, some rather significant changes to WoW's system via a new update, and more - take a look!

3D Printing, Revisited

Awhile back, we talked a bit about printing 3D models from Minecraft constructions, and had a chance to show off a particularly interesting village that was printed using this method. Today, we're giving you a look at the in-game village that the model came from, giving you a side-by-side perspective of what an in-game wonder becomes, block by block, when printed in real life - take a look!

Occasionally J represents other sounds, as in Hallelujah which is pronounced the same as "Halleluyah".
recieving many interpretations in foreign matters, such as the Taj Mahal, and going far back into history stemming from words such as hedge, the DG in hedge is a commonplace found before the acceptance of the letter J not being used as an I.

I do wonder what the proper pro noun is for Mojang, though I can only speculate that the owner of Mojang can indulge.

Mojang is pronounced like Moyang in swedish language, it's just their pronouncation of the J. For example, Jens Bergensten' name in swedish is pronounced almost like "Yens".

this whole advertising for Blizzard thing is out of control, thanks for removing my first post sach, but the opinion of the public still stands, this whole Curse invading our forum is out of control, and deserves its own section, not the Minecraft News all News related to Minecraft found here.

That 3d printing is so cool. I can't wait until they're as common as regular printers are now!
