Minecraft: 8-bit fun for everyone!

Whether you are new to video games or an experienced gamer, Minecraft is an amazing game that caters to every skill level. It may not have flashy graphics or realistic gore like much of today's top video games but it makes up for that with it's multiple play formats (like on creative mode or on survival) and its ability to let you use your imagination. Not many games allow for this sort of freedom and that is why I think that it's top Notch (lol pardon the pun)! I have been playing Minecraft with my husband for 2 years and every time I play it, I am still amazed that I have the freedom to build anything I want and play any way I wish. Lets say I wanted to build a massive castle with 100 rooms and a Mage's tower. In any other game, I wouldn't be able to unless I was the one creating it but in Minecraft, I can. What about a tree top city that spans an entire continent? Minecraft says "but of course"! How about the Sistine Chapel? Sure, why not. Anything is possible in Minecraft. It is just like playing Lego, without accidentally stepping on the pieces! The best part about this game is being able to turn off the spawning so you don't get attacked by those pesky Creepers or Endermen while building your fantastic creations! This game has such versatility and replay value that I'll be playing this for years to come with my kids and even my grandchildren! 
It is also wonderful for allowing people from different skill levels to partake in the same game (great for any geek couple or family who want to have something to do together). I seriously think that this should be a staple in every gaming family home. Notch has done a fantastic job with this indie game and I am glad it's pushed its way into the mainstream market. I give this game 10/10

Up Next: Guild Wars 2 and Minecraft!

Hi all! Sorry for not being able to post for a while, life has been very hectic these past few months! I got married and went on my honeymoon which takes a lot of meticulous planning...I am SO glad that the planning is over, and so happy I married my best friend! I still had a small amount of time to play some games and in a few weeks, I plan to do critiques on Guild Wars 2 and Minecraft. I have been playing Minecraft on and off with my Husband for 2 years now and love it! As for Guild Wars 2, I just recently got it and can't wait to get a little farther in it and tell you all about what I think! :D

talk to you all soon!
