And finally...

1. Old Pain Sound(Indev?-1.0)

me too

Zombie pigmen dropping porkchops instead of rotten flesh (Alpha 1.2.0 - Beta 1.7.3), even though I've only played since 1.3.

The only things I miss from Minecraft is:

1. Old Gravel Texture
2. Old Biome Generation (Before Beta 1.8)
3. Old Mobs
4. Old Pain Sound

That's all I can name.

Just off the top of my head

- When redstone took 30seconds to mine
- Having to make your house walls 2 blocks thick, otherwise when you sleep you'll be awaken by an agro mob
- No draw on a bow, could click and do a machinegun effect with arrows
- Regular apples could only be found in chests
- Chests had no sound or graphic animation
- Animals could not be bred
- Zombies drop feathers

I havent been playing long (B1.6.6) but I have to say the changes to what causes BUDs. Getting real into redstone and its not that consistat now.

I kinda miss the beaches formed when I was playing Alpha back then,,

Also for some weird reason, old Minecraft always had a 'sunny and cheery' vibe to it's look back then.

I can't remeber if this was before 1.8 or not, but the creeper explosion noise sounded like an explosion irl.

I miss the old grass texture when it was really light back in alpha.
other things I miss:
old friendly mob spawning
old bows( you could rapid fire)
old terrain
no hunger bar
no beds

old exploding sound indev to beta 1.8

Oh, and I forgot to say that I liked how Spiders couldn't climb walls until Beta 1.2. There was no danger of ambush until that version.

1: Old pain sound big time
2: Autofire Arrows
3: Gravel beaches ;-;
4: No hunger bar
5: Enchanting to Lv 50.

1. Nerfing endermen extremely

3. Old pain sound(was a classic, never understood why they changes something everyone liked it a random sound)

enchanting lvl 50 sucked big time, why would you want that?

It takes the exact same amount of time to get to 30 now as it was to 50 then. I just thought 50 was a better benchmark than 30.

Those WERE awesome.
