Favorite Tree in Minecraft?

Most useful minecraft mineral at the moment?

At this time in my Minecraft life, it would be iron. I'm hoping to find more diamonds soon, though. We'll see what happens....

... do giant mushrooms count? No?

I happen to be in an area filled with dark oak, and that is a nice looking wood. Judging by the door styles, though, I like birch or acacia the best.

How many diamonds have you found?

I'll have to check, but I think it's 8... maybe 9. I've already used two to craft a new sword, since my iron sword is wearing out.

Star Wars: X-Wing?

Do you have a Wii?

I used to own that game years ago. However, the controls were wonky - I never made it through the training missions, and lost interest after that. Of course, at that time, I didn't own a game controller for my computer, either. That might have made a difference.

I do, but I haven't used it in months. My kids play it more than I do nowadays. I do not have a WiiU. I've thought about it, but considering how little time I spend on the Wii, I can't justify the expense. (I still have games that I haven't completed - and in the case of Metroid Prime 3, even started!)

I spent $300 for a Wii U and Mario Maker and played for 2-3 weeks. Big Waste. I have gotten more fun out of Wii Sports Resort since I started playing it again.

Sounds to me like you need some different games. Try to track down used copies of the Wii Zelda games, or the Metroid Prime trilogy. Those are pretty good.

... you must be new here.

I loathe Microsoft, and really really hate Windows. (I almost didn't buy Minecraft because of its ties to Microsoft.) Why in the world would I want to give that corrupt, monopolistic empire more money than I have to? No, I don't own an Xbox and have no plans on owning an Xbox, and if I ever win one in a contest, I'll probably upload a video of me smashing it with a sledgehammer.

LOL, I guess I am new.
Do you use a Mac?

Yep. A 13" MacBookPro, to be precise. It does have the disadvantage of not having a great graphics card (Intel HD 4000, in contrast to the Nvidias that higher-end MBPs pack), but it was one of the only models left at the time that still had an internal SuperDrive (so I can put - and burn - CDs and DVDs in it). So I had to choose one or the other, and went with the one that allowed me to use digital media without having to purchase a USB peripheral.

Cool. I am guessing that you use an IPhone as well, correct?

Actually, that would be a no. There is no cellular service where I live, so there isn't much need for a cell phone. My wife and I do have a cell phone, but it's a TracFone, and generally just for emergencies, or if I need her to see if there's anything else we need while I'm at the store (or vice versa- if she has the phone and wants to know if I need anything).

If I did have an iPhone, I could be more useful around here. Sounds like the Web site has received review offers for some games, but since there isn't anyone with an iPhone or iPad handy to review them, they've had to pass.

Do you have an iPhone or iPad? If so, would you be willing to write some game reviews?

Sadly I don't. I only have an outdated Kindle Fire with limited WiFi. My other kindle fire was like 5 years old when I broke the screen on accident.

Favorite thing to spend your time doing?

Gaming, of course! And browsing the Internet... mostly looking up information on games.

Gaming with my family tends to top it all, though. Which reminds me, I may need to fire up a Pathfinder campaign with that material I picked up recently....
