Whoo, Minecraft Mania!: Guy Building Fully Functional Computer Inside The Game

Haha, who just shaved their dog's genitals and gave him a bath in-between posts? This guy! Taking a clue from the guy who built a fully functional calculator in Little Big Planet, Youtube user theinternetftw is in the process of building an entire 16-bit computer in Minecraft. *mind explodes, sending erotic memories of past dino lovers everywhere*
This is the first part of a planned 16-bit computer that will run entirely in minecraft.
The design was drawn up in an awesome program called Redstone Simulator (does what it says on the tin), which was written by Baezon on the Minecraft ForumsMCEdit was used to help clear off space and import the design into minecraft. Hours of experimenting with prototypes, modifications to the design, and debugging took place in the game itself, however.
This project is far from over. Memory, here I come...
Impressive! What can't spending endless hours toiling away in Minecraft build? Haha, besides meaningful relationships. Which -- who needs 'em anyway? (I'm building a dino-park)
Hit the jump for a video of the computer in action.

That's right folks, if you add up all the individual hours people have played Halo 3, it comes out to over 64,000 years. The billionth game of Halo 3 was played last Saturday. Bungie then calculated the play time of every online match - not counting custom maps - and it reache... / Continue →
