You can pretty much call Minecraft a pre-released success, considering four million gamers have already bought the beta. To add to its list of accomplishments, Minecraft has won the GameCity arts prize for computer games. The official release is scheduled for November.

The game was selected over rivals from big name publishers, including Valve and Electronic Arts' Portal 2 and Microsoft's Ilomilo.
 
I was being sarcastic about people buying games that are basically still in beta.
 
Right... one of these games was written in Java by a single person and one was made by one of the largest game developers in the world.

Good point.

I was thinking more along the lines of one being fun and the other being mind numbingly tedious and boring.
