Minecraft Beta

Yesterday, or today the site is unclear, was/is the last day to purchase Minecraft Alpha. Today, the game is scheduled to go to beta, and with that the price will go up. Beta players will receive all updates until the full game for free, but those who purchased in alpha will receive the game and all the coming updates for free. For those of you who haven't heard of minecraft, let me explain. Minecraft is a single player survival game. You are thrown into a world and your objective is to survive as long as you can. You use the resources of the world to build shelter, tools, and other structures. You in turn use these things to survive. When you get really good at the game, you can do some really amazing things. You can build castles, battle ships, cars, pretty much what ever you can imagine you can build. All you need is the proper resources. The game is quite fun in my opinion, and can keep you playing for hours on end. More information can be found on the website, but I have provided that which I found most crucial.
