Minecraft News!

Lindsay brings us some great Minecraft news this week; Mojang announces that they are selling prepaid Minecraft Gift Cards at retail stores, 4J Studios tweets that the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft has sold over 4 million copies, and Mojang gets a new office, and is nominated for Hottest Office in Sweden!

Minecraft Easter Eggs!

We take a look at the Minecraft-flavored Easter Egg in Borderlands 2, including a detailed walkthrough on how to see them, how it works, and more. SPOILER ALERT: if you don't want to ruin parts of the BL2 story, or reveal the easter egg's inner workings too soon, be warned that the video reveals these things!

I saw the office pictures at The Escapist; it's still one of the ugliest kitchens I've ever seen. The one thing we all agreed on there is that it looked less like an office & more like a furniture showcase store, like if Ikea made sweet love to a Home Depot & they had a baby.

For anyone who doesn't already know about it, you can get the 12w40b snapshot right off the Wiki snapshot page, just go find the "snapshot" link on the main Minecraft wiki page and download it from there.

it is awesome and hasn't crashed for me yet!

Cheers ...

Um, is this an easter egg? It must be some typo. That's no easter egg.
