Minecraft whats it like?

Ok so all I know about this game is that you build a place and fight off zombies. So I have a couple of questions. Firstly is there a limit to how much you csn build like you only hsve a certain amount of money to spend or something? Secondly can someone give a link to a good video showing zombies attacking. Thirdly how smart are the zombies? Can they open doors and stuff? Can you put wood across the doors? Lastly is this game fun?

Cheers!

You start off with nothing, you punch some trees and wood falls on the ground, with the wood you make wooden tools like a wooden pickaxe to chisel away at rock to find coal/metal/gold ect. You can use the new minerals to make new tools like a metal pickaxe or a diamond hoe. The world is your oyster, you can build what you want and craft items to help build even more of what you want then make weapons and armor to help fend of the monsters that come out at night or lurk in caverns.

The game is still in alpha and is constantly being upgraded, I heard survival multiplayer will be pretty much fully functional very soon too so you can fend of the monsters and shape your world with all your friends. Have a look at some youtube videos (like this one) to give you an idea of what minecraft is like, dont let the graphics put you off.

EDIT: LMAO, yeah sorry about the link fail. Ill keep it up for anyone who missed it... PUPPIES!!

Oh man. I laughed so hard when I followed that link. To be on topic, I think this series of videos is a good place to start (it's what got me really interested in the game to begin with at any rate). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bh4EexJO4I

Minecraft is virtually exploring, surviving and shaping the world to whatever pleases you. Sorta like if Lego, Nazi Zombies and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind sort of had a baby together.

Yeah Michael Bay offered a $50,000 reward for any info leading to the conviction of the girl and the person filming. Apparently both have been caught now.

There's no limit, the world starts out relatively small, but if you start moving towards the end of the map it will expand itself, Zombies don't open doors as far as I know, creepers however like to blow up and ruin your house if you get to close to it, even if you're inside. Skeletons will fire arrows at you and spiders will just try to punch you. Also the only limit to building is your imagination, you need to find/craft the blocks first though, you can't barricade doors. And last, Heck yeah it is.
