Isn't your debate the same as saying "All first-person shooters are based on DOOM?"

Minecraft and infiniminer, although similar, have a few significant differences. For one, the objectives of the game are completely different. In infiniminer the objective was to reach the required amount of points before the other team. Whereas in Minecraft, the objective was to survive.

And how is having various items similar to crafting? Crafting is finding materials to MAKE various items. And I think by weather, Wizerzack meant the Biomes. Oh and I don't recall infiniminer having water, can't be sure though. And the amount of tools in minecraft far surpasses the amount of tools in infiniminer.
And although this is minor, the sounds are completely different, apart from maybe getting hurt. (can't remember)

You are joking, Right?

But seriously... no one ever said Infiniminer and Minecraft were exactly the same.
Someone said that Minecraft was original, which it's not because it takes VERY MUCH of it's design from Infiniminer.

Yes, it is original. Minecraft has a completely different style of gameplay than Infiniminer. In fact, the only similarity between is that mining is a big part of the game, and that they both have a blocky graphical style.

Let's see...Collecting blocks and building shit out of them? Lego did that before you were even born.

Crafting? D&D did that before you were even born.

Weather effects? I remember the first time seeing that was on Donkey Kong Country. Very high tech at the time.

I can go on, but my point is originality is only an illusion.
