Okay, I'm sorry this is like, a day late, but I was playing Minecraft yesterday all night instead of blogging. I was going to post, but I got carried away and distracted. You see, I've only just started playing Minecraft. After many months of people posting about it on facebook and me being confused as to what it actually is, I finally asked a friend to explain it to me. It sounded boring, but I thought I'd give it a chance and I played the free version you can play at Minecraft.net and I've literally been playing it for about 4 days straight now (with exception to an hour of Amnesia). I decided to buy the full beta version on Monday. I was up until 6am this morning, still playing it. It's like The Sims, you kinda don't know why it awesome, but it is and you can not stop playing. I haven't even built anything, I'm just wandering around looking for coal for torches!
Possibly my favourite part of Minecraft is the songs. They're fantastically calming, don't you think? A friend of mine recently told me that Deadmau5 was planning on making some tracks for Minecraft. Whether or not this is true, I have no idea, but it would be a great flashback to his earlier 'Get Scraped' tracks. Anyways, here's some of the songs from Minecraft...
I love 'Cat'... But check out when you reverse it.. It's so much cooler...
Okay, I know that's a lot of videos and probably not enough writing, but you get what I mean with the tracks right? There are loads more tracks, but I don't want to fill up this post with Youtube videos, but I do encourage you to go and listen to them, because they're lovely tracks. Very nostalgic too.
Another thing I absolutely adore about this game is the Zombies. As a zombie fan, I guess it's kinda natural, but they're just so cool. I like to swim with them, like swimming with sharks. They're kinda cute in a way, like Bub from 'Day of the Dead'. They're pretty much harmless unless you get too close.
Now, the other game I bought on Monday was Amnesia after the huge rave about it and all of my friends agreeing It's one of, if not, the scariest games they've played. So on Tuesday I decided to wait for the fall of night to stick my head phones on, turn out the lights and play the game. And for an hour... Nothing. Happened. Wtf? Running about a dark castle trying to find lamp oil isn't scary. Whats the point? Why can't it just get straight into it? Why can't I open the door and there's a big scary monster? I've been more scared while playing Fall Out Vegas. And I know, I know 'I'm not far enough into the game' but honestly....After an hour I'd expect something to happen.
However, having said that, I will eventually go back to it and play it. Because I payed for it, therefore I will finished it. And hopefully it'll get better.
One last thing before I go and stuff my face with Pizza and play yet more Minecraft... This video of Amnesia game play was sent to me by a friend after she explained to me what the game was about. It's amazingly hilarious....
