***NOTE A-LIST NOMINEE FOR 2013***

Now this game I was truly excited for doing a review on. So here is my little story on how this review came to be. A week ago when I was playing the Escape Minecraft server with Cloud (Cloud_Nine) and while I was doing that I was thinking about what I can review next so I have decided to do this review! And so came the birth of this! anyways, I hope you enjoy my thoughts on this because this is definitely one game that I loved. In-fact I love it so much that you should go out and buy it in anyway it is available just so you can play it. Anyways enough chitter-chatter, lets begin.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Information: "Minecraft" is the popular 3-D sandbox, survival game created by independent game developer "Notch" and video game company "Mojang". This game has one a total of 5 awards and has the title of The Best Indy Game of 2011. It is currently available of 5 platforms which include, PC, Tablets, and X-Box.

Graphics 9/10 : This catagory I have to say scored qutie nicely in my opinion. The shading of each of the graphics fit quite nicely in the game making it give a realistic type of style to it, and the
shadow effect that they had created for it really gave the game depth. But, the only problem that I could really like to point out is that I found that the graphics just seemed that they could be
a bit better, and a bit more round. This is because, I found that the games current graphics seemed a bit too blocky for my tastes, and believe me, I have seen better. But that is really the main
problem in this catagory in my opinion. Other then that I would say that this game has excellent graphics, and if you don't like them, you can always get a texture pack off of the internet.

Creativity 8/10: The games creativity factor seem highly orignial in my opinion but of course wasn't 100% in moderation. One of the things that I'm talking about in the Enderman, which is basicly the same
thing as the slenderman excpet doesn't hide in the forest and stalk everthing in the forest. And the whole creating your own world thing was kind of already used, but this time it is in 3-D. But it
still has some creative elements such as you having to do some acual hard work in the game to survive from the monsters, like mineing for your own Gold, Diamonds, Emeralds, and Iron insted of going
into a feild and just swing at the feilds for diamons like in Zelda. This main feature was one of the keys parts in minecraft's success in my opinion because it made you feel you feel amazing when
you went down into the mines and found your first diamond. Overall, this factor deserves an 8 in my opinion.

Music 10/10: The music in the game I must say is some of the most beautiful piano work that you have ever hurd. Sometimes it gives off a different feeling when you are playing the game like when
you are in the mine, when you hear the music you will get a sence of dangor that just jolts through your body and makes you feel quite scared to go back up because of the zombies and creepers.
But sometimes it gives you a sence a peace that makes you feel calm and relaxed. Overall, even though it is mostly quite in the game, it is a soundtrack that should not be wasted.

Gameplay 9/10: Now to the main part of the game that matters in the review, the gameplay. Now just to be clear, I am basing this off of the survival mode. Anyways, the games gameplay was very interesting and very different when told apart from the other games. The game had used a very interesting concept that was very unique from the other games. The concept is that you must actually go out and build what you need unlike other games where all they do is just give it to. Also another thing I liked about the gameplay is that fact that it is in 3-D and how you have this very big and diverse land you can travel and explore across. But sometimes I found that the game could be a bit unfair when you go to dangerous areas filled with lava where they randomly have a creeper or a skeleton come behind you destroying all of the progress you made in the caves. But overall I thought it was quite fair except in areas like that where they just kill you randomly.

Replay Value N/A: Now you are probally wondering "why does this section have no score. did it stink so bad in it that is got a zero? THIS IS BIAS!!!!!!11!!1!!1!1!" well that is not the case here.
The case here is that there is nothing that could be replayed about this game since each world is different and there is no ending to the game so this section will not be counted tword the final score.

Overall: 38/40 = 90/100 Excellent
