Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports).

"Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • No game or product giveaway of any kind

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

Submission Rules

Is your post not showing up? Do not delete it. Wait 5 minutes to give AutoModerator a chance to look at it; it approves most submissions automatically. If it hasn't shown up after more than 5 minutes, simply message the moderators and ask us to let it through.

Not even a Minecraft player and I think this is damn impressive.

[–]Zurdoabc 0 points1 point ago

Wow.. just wow!

[–]orpund 11 points12 points ago

Wasnt that posted like an hour ago?

[–]ThatDutchLad 19 points20 points ago

My brother didn't like the other title, so he forced me to remove my post.

And no, it wasn't for the karma, it was for the recognition of our project, to get it out there.

[–]illuminati_by_nature 12 points13 points ago

You're younger than your brother aren't you?

[–]xlaxplaya 2 points3 points ago

Little bros represent.

[–]steventhegreat 2 points3 points ago

Reminds me of Seattle.

[–]Machine_Dick 2 points3 points ago

There's a space needle, the empire state building, and the new World Trade Center so I think he's combining a bunch of cities.

[–]jonvox 0 points1 point ago

Don't forget 30 Rock, just to the left of the ESB. But that doesn't even look like the Space Needle to me, it looks more like the Las Vegas Stratosphere, because of the way the supports join to the saucer, they connect on the outside (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Stratosphere_by_night.jpg) as compared to the Space Needle where they connect through the middle (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/23/Space_Needle_2011-07-04.jpg)

[–]TheRedComet 1 point2 points ago

Oh my god I've always wanted to build a city like this, but got some glitches with the height mod I was using that erased some stuff and made it incompatible with later versions. Not sure how to roll back now.

Here's my proudest work:

http://imgur.com/a/cv5S3#0

How's the height limit these days? Sadly my save with that in it won't work and I don't know how to save it. Also, Minecraft stutters and lags profusely on my rather powerful computer, strange glitch I don't understand.

[–]gvfordo 1 point2 points ago

I have no idea about the height issue, but the lag issue sounds like something I too encountered. After some googling I found out that minecraft prefers 64-bit java and you have to hunt a bit to find that on the Java website as the 32 bit seems to be what is automatically recommended. http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Hopefully that's your issue. It was pretty much night and day once I had the 64bit version.

[–]mrfuzzie 2 points3 points ago

Is this supposed to be Toronto or Seattle?

[–]JarekBloodDragon 3 points4 points ago

Seattle?

[–]sigaven 4 points5 points ago

Space needle or Stratosphere?, Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, 1 World Trade Center

[–]BoggleHead 0 points1 point ago

Definitely the Stratosphere, the resemblance is uncanny.

[–]Cthulhus_Brother 3 points4 points ago

What looks like the Rockefeller Center and the Empire State Building are in the background.

I think it's magic Minecraft city and not really based on anywhere in particular.

[–]JarekBloodDragon -1 points0 points ago

Well it looks an aweful lot like the space needle block.

[–]doplebanger 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, I like how he put the empire state building the same relative distance from the space needle as real life. And how he reimagined the space needle. As the stratosphere.

[–]Seahawk29 0 points1 point ago

Looks more like Dallas to me

[–]pwnyoface 0 points1 point ago

space needle for sure.

[–]BobeHarvard 0 points1 point ago

It looks badass. Real badass.

[–]RealStyrofom 1 point2 points ago

Will this map be available for others to download? This is a very nice city and i would really enjoy exploring it

[–]el_chunko 0 points1 point ago

Mal, I know you're a dream. Stop posting.

[–]jeremy203 0 points1 point ago

I fully thought of Inception too. I can just imagine his brother and him walking through they city they created together from memory.

[–]louiedog 0 points1 point ago

I want to go to there.

[–]BrotherChe 0 points1 point ago

After opening the image in RES, as I slowly 5-line scroll down past the image, it looks like the whole image shifts in depth as if I'm moving away from it!

[–]Chickenbeek 0 points1 point ago

looks awesome, i think i know where you live, right up I-5. :)

[–]cTrillz 0 points1 point ago

I always try to make Minecraft cities with my brother, but our art styles always end up too strikingly different :(

[–]bx8 0 points1 point ago

Can you go into the buildings and walk around? Further to that, where is the shopping center to buy new minecraft clothes.

[–]Forever_Bored 0 points1 point ago

I have never played this game. Or never will. But the things people make fucking amaze me. Its funny how many minecraft videos/photos I look at. Just awesome!

[–]UtmostGrandPoobah 0 points1 point ago

do you have a youtube channel?

[–]Nin4life 0 points1 point ago

And then creepers come...

[–]Awkotawko 0 points1 point ago

That's so sick

[–]LaenFinehack -2 points-1 points ago

I want to grief that so bad.

[–]sininster_666 0 points1 point ago

And then comes along this crazy guy who flies a plane into the tower.

[–]_Hep 0 points1 point ago

can...can i help?

[–]_Hep 0 points1 point ago

"No, we like to keep it this way. It is much nicer to discuss our build progress in person."

a simple no would of been ok. :(

[–]Veganasuarus 0 points1 point ago

I love the empire state building with a zeppelin docked at it

[–]sqdnleader 0 points1 point ago

"We built this city. We built this city... on rock and roll!"

[–]sheiiit 0 points1 point ago

kinda looks like dallas

[–]mioko 0 points1 point ago

Such an incredibly obscure comparison, but was this inspired by this?

[–]squid06 0 points1 point ago

My Minecraft city is bad, and I should feel bad.

[–]propernounTHEheel 0 points1 point ago

Holy infantile Christ.

[–]addyrussell 0 points1 point ago

Holy Fukkin' shit

[–]Bobrossfan 0 points1 point ago

back in my day we just played legos..

[–]HULK-SMASH 0 points1 point ago

Send in the Creepers!!!

[–]KingArya30 0 points1 point ago

upvoted for doing cool shit with your brother

[–]Keyserchief 0 points1 point ago

"How long were you stuck?"

"Fifty years."

"How did you stand it?"

"We built. We created a whole world for ourselves... It's not so bad at first, being gods. The problem is knowing that it's not real. It became impossible for me to live like that."

[–]POLITE_ALLRAPS_GUY 0 points1 point ago

THAT CITY'S LOOKING REAL PRETTY, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. I SEE IT TOOK SOME DEDICATION, FROM THE THINGS I CAN SEE. WORD.

[–]Crash15 0 points1 point ago

Stratosphere or space needle?

[–]rubbersrobber 0 points1 point ago

And thus the young whipper snappers sealed their virginity for yet another year after finishing the great metropolis.

[–]Colinater 0 points1 point ago

Very impressive.

[–]LionHead25 0 points1 point ago

I want to go to there

[–]LemiaCrescent 0 points1 point ago

Gosh I can't even imagine how many hours this must have taken you... Even with your brother helping!

[–]TheHawk1187 0 points1 point ago

The Big tower reminds me of the Lucky 38 :)

[–]Skiznit 5 points6 points ago

Reminds me of the Space Needle in Seattle, Washington. I live here so that is probably why.

[–]Seahawk29 -2 points-1 points ago

I have lived in Seattle for 21 years and I can tell you this looks nothing like the space needle.

[–]jelde 2 points3 points ago

how does it look nothing like the space needle? i recognized it as such, and I'm sure a lot of other people did. how else could we have made that connection?

[–]Seahawk29 2 points3 points ago

It looks more like the Stratosphere in Las Vegas in my opinion.

[–]TheHawk1187 -4 points-3 points ago

Oh yeah i can see it. Do you know what the Lucky 38 is?

[–]Skiznit 0 points1 point ago

Isn't it that tower in Fallout New Vegas?

[–]ILikePuhtaytoes -3 points-2 points ago

Well considering you didn't mention that the "big building" was the space needle, he must have understood.

[–]jvm4th -1 points0 points ago

Please be copy pasted, please be copy pasted...

[–]xNuclearHDx 1 point2 points ago

Wow that looks awesome man! Can you please provide a link to the texture pack?

[–]ChocolateLion -2 points-1 points ago

World download please?(:

[–]dimecrackers -2 points-1 points ago

the second building to the right in that picture... will you explain how you made the shell to that building?

[–]Cat-Videos -2 points-1 points ago

Looks like seattle.

[–]blaghart -2 points-1 points ago

Server IP? If it's creative I'd love to help out.

[–]Dantonn -2 points-1 points ago

Nice zeppelin port.

[–]imariaprime -2 points-1 points ago

I honestly HOPE you did this with MCEdit or the like. Because even WITH tools, it'd be a serious accomplishment.

[–]paulfp007 0 points1 point ago

i'm glad to see this is still going. was just thinking about this the other day.

[–]Rohan21166 -2 points-1 points ago

This settles it. I'm building my town/city.

Should be easy, no huge things.

[–]Silvergate -2 points-1 points ago

Great Job! Very impressed!
