Minecraft updates are always a nice time to jump back into the long running game. I always seem to hit the game in waves, playing it extensively for a few weeks or months before I kind of get tired of it, or my friends get addicted to some other new game. Then a new update hits and I’m right back in the mine, desperately searching for diamonds. When was the last time you were truly hooked on Minecraft? Let us know in the comments.
