Putz is touting Minecraft well in the screenshots thread but I figured it's time it got its own. Basically you're a dude in a randomly generated world that can build or destroy anything. There's an online "classic" version where you can just build and destroy. Then there's the version you can purchase for around 13usd that includes more stuff like monsters, animals, weapons, and crafting. There's sp and mp. The graphics are simple and oldschool but are pretty charming after you play for a bit. If you like exploring and building it's quite fun. It's in alpha and it has already sold 100,000 copies.
Here's the first of a series in which a guy plays the full version for the first time and explains what it's all about:
YouTube - X098 - X's Adventures in Minecraft - 001 - Shelter from the Black of Night
