Minecraft Patch 1.5 Released!

(you can see the rain on the left and the snow on the right)
     So far, I love it. This new patch to Minecraft is great. Spawning a new world and immediately got to experience the new rain effect. But what was great about it, was it just so happened to be on the edge of a winter Biome. Check this out. The achievement pane was pretty well done, Really enjoyed seeing the little box pop up every time I did something awesome. Seemed a bit shallow though, not much content in the achievements. The statistic pane was great. because we all wanna know how many times we have gotten blown up, Fell to our death or drowned while out adventuring in our own little sandbox planet. Another neat feature for the weather is it can block out the sun, Kinda interesting.

Booster rails have been added: which is greaaaat!!!!! It's about time I don't have to make some random contraption to make my carts go long distance!

Other then that, It was a pretty basic update. Fun things to do again nonetheless! Mine on friends, Mine on.

Update: The achievements are supposed to be added too over time! Wheww thank god.
