Congrats Mojang! I don't care what anyone else is saying currently, I think Minecraft is fantastic. I am kinda' bummed Valve didn't win though, they are my favourite game developer after all.

Damn minecraft screwing up my bracket. I should have guess ninty would lose but come on, mojang won? When it's only game is still in beta? Thats infuriating as hell and just doesn;t seem logical. Meh. Bravo Notch you little bastard. Next time don't be such a smug little git before you've even won it.
Well, let's not forget that TF2 was originally community driven because TF1 was just a mod.geldonyetich said:

What the hell have any of these other developers brought out this year?
I don't actually know how minecraft ended up beating the gigantic corporations of gaming, but I don't think I mind a new innovative game beating top-dollar companies we've all grown used to.
Look, I appreciate Minecraft in the way I still appreciate putting legos together, and Lord knows I've spent too much time on both. However, Valve who has made the two greatest games of all time, being beaten is somewhat...unsettling. I would appeal to the team at Escapist, that the criteria being set henceforth, be that the developer has to actually have a title released, before being a candidate in the tournament. Seems only fair.
All these complaints basically boil down to "MOJANG SHOULDN'T HAVE WON BECAUSE THEY HAVE ONE (questionably unfinished) GAME!"
It's still a game. And opinions win in competitions more than loyalty to a certain developer.
So, I have to ask,

Ah yes nothing like ignoring an entire post just to read one sentence.Balobo said:
Well I'm already playing on normal anyway, but that doesn't change the fact that the fighting system is pretty useless anyway, creepers are just annoying as well as skeletons, there is no threat from them, unless its the "hiding somewhere to blow you up" creeper, every other Mob is just boring, there is no strategy involved in killing them..its a chore..and thats what the entire game in general is..its a chore.
Other than that its just an insult to big Players like Valve, Blizzard, Nintendo or Bioware that Mojang was even allowed to join the MM, why don't we include Moonpod..they got 3 games already or half of Newgrounds, we got a ton of Flashgames there, not to mention Armor games and so on and so forth, they all have finished games, but aren't listed.
My guess is that Mojang won out of nowhere and screwed many people's brackets and therefore they must prove their bracket was correct by questioning the results this much.TheYellowCellPhone said:All these complaints basically boil down to "MOJANG SHOULDN'T HAVE WON BECAUSE THEY HAVE ONE (questionably unfinished) GAME!"

Just a hunch though.
Tell me this; are those flash games have anywhere near the cult following of Minecraft? Have they made millions of dollars?Avaloner said:
Most of Bioware's games felt like chores to me. I guess each person has different preferences.
I'm sorry that Mazty didn't get his way. 3DSMax should have won ;-;Mazty said:
