Minecraft's Musical Blocks Already Playing Portal Theme

[RowdyRodimus]

As impressive as that is from a technical view, and it is pretty fucking impressive, I honestly am a bit sick of Still Alive.

Also, I want someone to make the Double Rainbow song. Someone has done Bed Intruder, so hopefully it'll be soon!

With me it not just Still Alive, it's every single "news" item we get about this game. If this was out of alpha/beta/whatever they are calling it now and this was stuff that was found in the finished product it would be really cool, as it is now the dev just adds something he thinks will get press to keep selling the unfinished game to keep raking in the money without having a finished product.

Will Wright originally claimed that Spore would be "SimEverything"...and failed miserably in that design quest, due in no small part to Executive Meddling from EA.

Markus Persson is under no such constraint. Viva Minecraft.

The potential for irritation with these blocks is immense. We had one guy with a bunch of blocks playing out the drumbeat that drove The Master from Doctor Who insane. I now understand why he went nuts.

Who was it Sach?

Another part of nerd culture I wish would just die already. Portal jokes and references wore their welcome two days after release.

It's mind boggling to think that note blocks have only been in the game for 3 days. Don't these people sleep?

Disregard sleep. Acquire Music

Actually, I love the game. Slightly addicted too. Now, I agree that not every little thing should be reported on, and that this song was only posted due to many internet peoples' love of it (especially on this site), I love the updates. He actually listens to what his fans wants, and puts in what he thinks will be good. The community gets a bit of a say towards the final product, which I find awesome.

 

[Space Jawa]

Why am I not surprised?

Mandatory "This was a triumph" comment.

I raise you one mandatory mention of cake!

...

I don't know if it's quite irony or not that this is being done on a beta of the game.

Interesting, but like others, I'm getting a little bored of it. I love the song quite a bit (and the Mario Paint version), but it needs to just die down a bit. We've got the sequel coming in a few months (or years), so just let Portal die and get ready for the new slew of memes.

Or at least give Hoopy some love, damn it.

There is a guy working on a 20-30 channel version of the song. The prototype sounds pretty cool. It going to finish it, but not for a while.

Wonder if Raining Blood would be possible? >_>

if somebody does through the fire and the flames then i will literally pay them 1000 dollars

 

[Caligulove]

These just always make me smile.

Not just minecraft but any game where people can really let their creativity flourish. Songs that I've heard many times before and I'll still sit through these

What I found interesting on Tritex989 account was that he had made Conways game of life, in minecraft, that is just pure awesomeness. The portal theme was a bonus to it.

 

[Niccolo]

I'm surprised it wasn't star trek or star wars that came first.

This is the internet we're talking about here. Of course they'd go with the meme-tastic Portal theme.

 

[Vohn_exel]

Man, I need to upgrade Minecraft. Also, I want to get my PS3 fixed. I miss LBP!

 

[Aeshi]

Great. Another game who hasn't realized that meme died ages ago and was never funny to begin with.

 

[Anchupom]

Bloody effing christ that was fast.

 

[GamemasterAnthony]

I will not agree to seeing Minecraft as the next Mario Paint Composer unless they can do songs as awesomely as SnowDog80 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HVv25m-8RI] can.

 

[Distorted Stu]

rofl at his newest version. Its the complete song but the ending is amazing :')

With all the respect to the note block, I think the dispenser takes the cake in this update.
