Apple

Stands for something probably really boring.

I don't know why everyone is so excited... if you want to play it on the go buy a laptop. This is going to be like the earliest alpha version, it will get boring real fast. And the fact that you will probably spend twice as much time building something you could than if you did it no the computer. They are going to be starting this from the very beginning stages, and update it like the PC version has. Except the PC version has Notch and Jeb so it's going pretty good. These other versions will probably take longer to update, bug fix etc.

iOS is a little like Android, except it's used on the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad/iPad 2.

But, This is awesome. I can't wait to try it out! =D

It's about damn time.

@lobstilops The reason playing Minecraft on a laptop isn't the same is because you can't pull a freakin' laptop out of your back pocket.

The one thing we need is an iPad compatible version.

Will the game be free for Alpha buyers? :smile.gif:

Was the Android version free to Alpha buyers? If not, I'd assume your answer is no.

I imagine it'll be exactly like the current client... you need a paid account to log in. If so, it should be entirely free, 99 cents at most.... but I can see it being $2.99.

I probably won't get it until I have some spare money on my account, it's not exactly worth it and it'll only reinforce me parents' opinion of me being addicted to it.

...Not denying it either. :laugh.gif:
