I personally couldn't take the time to do the creating part, but my son has spent hundreds of hours on Minecraft. He watched the video and is convinced he could make the best game ever. once this gets out to people, it will explode!

Same for me, my son 7 year old spends tons of time on minecraft.  I showed him the spark video and his eyes opened so wide I thought his head would split.  He cannot wait to get his hands on it and make games for himself and his friends.  If you look at the montage video that shows all the games MS people have made its pretty impressive the scope.  I am very interested to see what the community can do with this tool.  I know my older son spent a lot of time with little big planet making his very crappy games but he had so much joy in doing it.

My son just turned fifteen, but he still seems to fall back to Minecraft for many hours each week with a group of his friends.  He had a number of his friends that were thinking of going PS4, but after he convinced them to check this out, they have been convinced to stick with XBOne.
