i've been playing... kinda fun but not worth the time until he can make non griefing multiplayer servers. Why spend so much time building such elaborate shit for nobody but yourself to see? I guess thats why there are so many youtube vids of peoples constructions.
Great idea... but he needs to improve it for online play.
Perhaps he will be doing that with the $250,000 a day he is making in sales.

Minecraft is almost more of a creative outlet than a game. Akin to building a model or playing with Legos, et cetera. It is fun to show my brother the luxurious cave dwelling I built into the mountain, but I'm driven more by my own satisfaction with a completed project.
That being said, I actually like the action.

If you dig deep into the world, you find some pretty spooky places, too. Go deep enough and you can hear the mobs nearby and rarely can pinpoint exactly where from, which creates decent suspense. Occasionally taking an arrow to the face as you break into a cavern is pretty startling and fun, as well. I enjoy the groove you can get into clearing an area and setting up a camp/way point.
Last weekend I accidentally created a fissure near some lava and it spilled over the entire lava lake. I came back 15 minutes later and it had cooled into obsidian blocks! I had to carefully route the lava under the obsidian into another area and then plundered!
In fact, think I'm going to go play right now.
