I got Minecraft (Alpha) yesterday. I played for a few hours. I made a castle, a dungeon, and a house. I realized that's pretty much what the entire game was. It's like Legos, but slower and you can kill stuff. If you're thinking about getting it, the free version is almost exactly the same. The weapons/enemies don't really add anything to the game. Don't waste 9.95 Euros on it.

Endermen have now been thoroughly confirmed by Notch, and if Minecraft wasn't ruined already by now, imagine lots of mobs eroding the entire landscape over time, by removing random blocks and then dying without putting them back again. Notch implemented mob griefers for people who don't play on Peaceful Mode. How was this a good idea?
I mean sure, Notch gets all sorts of stupid ideas put into his head by the underage community, but somewhere you'd think he'd go "Hold on here! Griefer mobs? This is a pretty stupid idea! Maybe I should NOT make this mob.".
