i always took that quote to mean Minecraft is the Legos of the Digital Age. building blocks used to make pretty much anything you want.. I've played it on PC and think it's really fun. It is amazing what it's doing for young kids and how its introducing them into programming. the last two conferences (JavaOne 2013, Oscon 2014) i went to had a keynote speaker that was 10 or 11 and got started because of minecraft ( and his parents were techies.. )
