For Minecraft (http://www.joystiq.com/game/minecraft) players, a new update is almost as good as Christmas morning. See, updates mean new tools and/or creatures, which function as imagination-crack for the industrious and crafty crafters that call Minecraft home. The update has barely been available for 48 hours (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/09/minecraft-1-8-update-leaked-by-mojang/), yet its new mechanics are already being used to create inventive and entertaining constructions.

Sethbling (http://www.youtube.com/user/sethbling)'s Duck Hunt replica may not feature actual ducks, but it does manage to capture the innocence and nostalgia of our 8-bit youths, all the way down to that damn dog's mocking, condescending laughter. Keep laughing, pooch! We'll see how funny it is when the Endermen (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/30/the-endermen-are-coming-for-you-in-minecraft-mob-update/) come in the night and "collect" you while you're sleeping.http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Minecraft 1.8's bow mechanics quickly utilized for Duck Hunt (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/11/minecraft-1-8s-bow-mechanics-quickly-utilized-for-duck-hunt/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Sun, 11 Sep 2011 20:30:00 EST.
