[QUOTE=Matto;33034950]The weird thing about minecraft winning an arts awards is that it is more of blank canvas on which the players make their 'art'. (giant dirt cocks)[/QUOTE] That's the reason they gave for giving it the award.
[QUOTE=Canary;33036304]Infiniminer came first, no one seems to know this and guess Monecraft came first because they know about it.[/QUOTE] Because Infiniminer is nothing like minecraft once you get past the blocks. Especially today's minecraft.
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;33033750]minecraft is about as artistic as a two year old smearing poop over the wall.[/QUOTE] Okay well when you stop being such a cunt and you make a sandbox game like Minecraft, you can talk all the crap you want.

[QUOTE=doonbugie2;33031409]Yes? Because they spent the money and effort and put it out there for console players and distributed it throughout retail shops across the fucking Earth.[/QUOTE] that's their job. it's a service they provide.
[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;33035453]Minecraft is a piece of shit compared to Portal 2[/QUOTE] So? It's not a "game of the year" award, it's given based on artistic merits.
[QUOTE=Cuel;33048301]that's their job. it's a service they provide.[/QUOTE] True. If BBC can say EA's Portal 2, then saying 'Best buys Portal 2' would be valid too.
I went to the Gamecity festival in Nottingham, it was a tent in the middle of the town square.
[QUOTE=The freeman;33028627]words[/QUOTE] Way to take it out of context. [QUOTE][B]Valve[/B] and Electronic Arts' Portal 2[/QUOTE]
Minecraft's a great game and all but Portal 2 is seriously on my favorite games of all time
[QUOTE=- Livewire -;33048540]I went to the Gamecity festival in Nottingham, it was a tent in the middle of the town square.[/QUOTE] I was there the other day. This award basically means jack shit.
I kinda got the vibe that any #1 game would be criticized regardless. Still though, Minecraft's entertainment is in the eye of the beholder, it was built up looking incredibly simplistic and people make it what they will.
[QUOTE=squids_eye;33049205]I was there the other day. This award basically means jack shit.[/QUOTE] I also got fined £50 for dropping the end of a cig on the floor, fuck you Nottingham and your zero tolerance to littering.
Why the fuck was Pokemon Black a nominee? I know Minecraft has been available for a while, but thirteen years is pushing it. :v:
Pretty strange to see that a Minecraft's already winning prizes and whatnot even though the game's not even finished yet. For all we know the whole game could go to shit in the next update so I find this a bit awkward.
