Those who have been here for years and are now wondering why people are making such a fuss about Minecraft, this could interest you.

Starting with version 1.3, released yesterday, the game includes a free demo mode. Create an account, download the launcher, and start it using your new account. You'll be offered a "Play Demo" option, which allows you 100 minutes of gameplay. You won't be able to join any servers, but it can give you a better idea of what the game has to offer... or if your computer can run it!

I KNEW that would be in 1.3. I could FEEL it. After seeing how awesome the demo mode in the 360 version was. Now you don't have to illegally crack your game to try it. Not that I ever did, you know.

I'm rather amused with the release of their demo mode. I keep hearing from different people about how their demo won't work for them, and after trying to help them out it appears that their bin folder was empty after they downloaded the game and tried running it. Not sure if it's an error on their part or mojang's though.
