March Mayhem 2011 Is Over, Mojang Wins!

[OptimisticPessimist]

Bah, Bioware is still better. *fanboy grumble*

 

[omicron1]

And the best part?

With this advertising contract, all the people whining about how Minecraft shouldn't have won will be inundated with ads for the game! Sort of adding insult to injury there for some people.

 

[WorldCritic]

...Meh. See you guys next year.

 

[Liquid Ocelot]

Absolutely pathetic. Mojang has one average, but addicting sandbox game, and they beat out fantastic developers like Bioware and Square? No. No, should not have been.

 

[joeman098]

gratz to the winners ! =D

 

[Miniges]

Majong deserves it, no sweat. I'm still kicking myself for not bracketing them as the winner.

 

[Th37thTrump3t]

Anyone else disappointed by this?

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

I had a good time not participating, therefore not getting worked up over anything!

 

[AndrewC]

Just goes to prove how strong the fanbase for Mojang is, stronger than other companies it would seem

 

[Nerf Ninja]

Don't you need to have actually finished a game before you can be called a developer?

I don't hate minecraft, I keep thinking about trying it out but come on.

 

[fix-the-spade]

Nice to see Mojang the Destroyer win and not some spam reliant conglomerate (Hi Zyngie, we're waving!).

Now, serious question this:

What was the general tone of this year's MM like?
After three years of general bad feeling and ban-a-matics I avoided it completely this year, but did notice it popping up in the recent comments bar a lot less than I remember, so I sort of assumed argument stacks weren't happening as much.
So, were people nicer this time round?

 

[viranimus]

This is another little sign that indicates that we have an early contender for game of the decade.

 

[awesome_ninja]

pft....pathetic
I never wanted to play minecraft and never will.... GMOD is 10 times better than this
/me blames fanboys *rolleyes*

 

[Veloxe]

Although I was personally rooting for a few different developers, grats to Mojang!

 

[Misho-]

I'm looking forward in about 10 years when people claim Mojang is a souless Corporate Machine hell bent on milking us for DLC. XD

Congratulations!!! You prooved the justice of our society!

 

[ShockValue]

Surprised by the overall result this year, but oh well.
I welcome the fact that things can go back to normal now >.>

 

[fix-the-spade]

Don't you need to have actually finished a game before you can be called a developer?

He's developing it isn't he?

 

[DanDeFool]

So... Yeah. Mojang won. I thought Valve would take it for sure, but I guess people just love Minecraft that much.

Anyway... have they already done the drawing for those swanky laptops?
