I can't return to Minecraft. I first played it when it was in testing still, not released to the public, and off of someone's flashdrive haha. I love the system of Minecraft, but I want that same gameplay in a visually stunning engine and with modern gameplay mechanics.

digital foundry also have a video of it.
