I got Minecraft in Beta 1.5. I understand nostalgia because right now I have it for a certain texture pack that hasn't updated since 1.7 and I haven't used since early 1.6 *cough* Gurugamers *cough*. But tell me, what did Alpha have that Beta 1.6 doesn't? or 1.5? or 1.4? Only since 1.7 have the "controversial" updates been out, and in my opinion, 1.8+ have been the only irksome ones (because Jeb is now mostly in charge of updates vs. Notch). So, yeah, just get Beta 1.6. It's like Alpha, but with more features (ie new items, not hunger bars or new mechanics like 1.8+).
Alpha, I think it was more fun when I first joined... Or maybe I'm just getting bored with MC and the version has nothing to do with it.
Exactly, most people who like Alpha more than early Beta only do so because they were a noob! I had the most fun in 1.6 because I got it in late 1.5 (like a week before update), so I was just getting the hang of it and I could learn new stuff. If I decided to downgrade though, I would downgrade to 1.7, because I think it was a better version, i just had lost the noobness!
I joined in Beta 1.6, roughly about the time when sheep needed shears. Looking at all of the versions, mini-updates, bugfixes and everything, I personally find Beta 1.4 to be the best, followed by Beta 1.7.3. I just like selecting a world of my own, but dislike tall grass (UGLY!) and like punch-sploding TNT.
I like beta better, and beta was when I started, and I think it was that sense of being a noob that made the game a whole lot of more fun than now (all those adventures I had). I have only tried alpha in the new launcher recently and because I know so much it literally feels like I have downgraded Minecraft to alpha, not reliving all the "noob days".
Finally apart of the Team!

It was a mess that today is semi-fixed.
