I asked my friends, “Is Minecraft a good game?”

Responses:

“If you’re the kind of person that likes to answer the question “What have you done today?” with the answer “I played video games” Minecraft is the game for you.”
“It’s like Geek Knitting”
“Yard work is like Minecraft plus exercise.”
“You know how there’s a Flickr group for ppl who make things out of Legos? And there’s ANOTHER group for people who organize the things they’ve made out of Legos, with their special shelves and displays and arrangements? Minecraft is for those people.”
