Editor’s Note: Before reading this review, we highly recommend checking out our review for Episode One: The Order of the Stone , Episode 2: Assembly Required , and Episode 3: The Last Place You Look as there are spoilers ahead.

Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 4: A Block and a Hard Place is the strongest episode yet in basically every aspect. Employing emotional factors as well as hard story elements, Telltale has managed to create a story that originated from just a few blocks. Every second of this two hour episode was spent towards making the player feel as though everyone really is depending on them to save the world. Hard times fall, but Jessie and his friends make this episode an unforgettable experience that one can only hope to be transferred to next and final episode of this series.

Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Perrson, and other representatives from studio Mojang, have addressed the absence of a Wii U version of Minecraft Maps on several occasions. The most recent of which came from Notch himself who said that Mojang simply doesn't have the free time to be working on a Wii U version at this moment. Though he does acknowledge that version of the game would "make sense."

The Wii U is in bad shape. While that's clear from the system's sales figures , which were a major contributor to Nintendo president Saturo Iwata recently deciding to cut his salary in half , the issues surrounding Nintendo's flagship system are much greater in truth than just some slumping sales.


There are many horrors within the Nether, but the worst has to be the giant ghost-looking mobs that fly around the caves known as Ghasts. The second-largest mob in the game, these things are a sight to behold, but when they notice the player, things get downright danger


There is another mob, the Blaze, which has a similar ilk to the Breeze. Both mobs float through the air and fire projectiles. The two are also only found in generated structures. Players who are familiar with what a Blaze can do would do well to avoid an encounter with a Bre

If competitive gaming ever really make it as a widely accepted form of entertainment, it will be in large part thanks to the contributions of this strange RPG, action, RTS hybrid known as the MOBA. It's origins date back to the previous generation, but its influence and prime really began in earnest during this one, as this charming genre mutt quickly found its way into the hearts and hard drives of some of the best gamers out there. Impossibly deep and begging for hours and hours of practice to become even marginally competent on a professional scale at, the MOBA is perhaps the most significant thing to happen to competitive gaming since the FPS.

He's not the only one who thinks so. A quick Google Image search of "Minecraft Wii U" reveals a host of fan made mock ups that make it clear why a Wii U version of Minecraft would not only make sense, but may result in the definitive version of the game.


Witches aren't exactly the most imposing enemies in Minecraft . After all, they simply look like a Villager dressed in "spooky attire." One might mistake them for a Villager celebrating Halloween, but ignoring their presence is a mistake. Witches have a nasty poison that lasts for an agonizingly long 45 seconds for any player that's hit by their toxic concoct

Minecraft: Story Mode has managed to surprise fans of episodic games with every episode released. While the second episode might not have proven that, both Episode 1, Episode 3 and now Episode 4 have not disappointed. Probably the best episode yet in both content and character development, Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 4: A Block and a Hard Place will leave you emotionally defeated. Lasting a little bit over two hours, the episode gives closure to the events that Jessie and his friends are facing in saving the world from the Witherstorm. It begins right where you left off last, either Ellegard or Magnus having died (according to the decision that you make) and Gabriel having been rescued but with no recollection of what has happened (a side effect from having Wither Sickness). You all run from the storm only to find safety in a cave, still within the storm's range.


The lore implications for this creature are terrifying and completely mysterious. If that wasn't already bad enough, this creature will also fly about attacking anything that isn’t an undead creature. If the player doesn’t quickly bring this beast down, its destructive potential will obliterate all life and severely alter the landsc

Still, it is the girl that Nintendo has brought to the dance. As such, it's highly unlikely they will be replacing it with an entirely new console anytime soon. After all, they're not a company on the verge of bankruptcy whose entire future relies on the Wii U becoming the dominant selling system. Not to mention that the 3DS is actually doing quite well, giving them a hardware buoy should they need it.
The collective groans of the Assassin's Creed faithful heard upon the announcement the game was getting a multiplayer mode were not only noted, but honestly were not without merit when considering gaming's long history of tacking on multiplayer modes to games best left as single player experiences. While that could have easily been the case here, thankfully the boys and girls at Ubisoft recognized the inherit potential of a multiplayer mode within this world, and executed it.
