Molyneux: Minecraft Is Game Of The Decade


Peter Molyneux, who was speaking to IGN about his BAFTA Fellowship win earlier this week, has said he thinks Minecraft is the game of the decade. More accurately, he said this in response to IGN's suggestion that Minecraft represent a hallmark of a new golden age of gaming: "I think Minecraft's the best thing I've played in the last ten years, and what's so brilliant about it – and I've met Markus and he's a real inspirational person – he did everything on his own, and I think how brilliant and inspirational that is, to not need the full force of publishers and marketing people. He did everything on his own. I agree with you about it being a golden age – there's so much choice, and I feel there's so many opportunities as well."
