10. Rapture (Bioshock)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNxcxnKYPOc Bioshock's Rapture must be one of gaming's most memorable settings; an underwater utopia, once teeming with life and socialist ideals, now fallen into disarray and despair. It's one of the many reasons why Bioshock is such a great game; of course someone has recreated it in Minecraft. One of my favourite things about this video is just how well it captures the opening of Bioshock. Even the fire on the water outside the lighthouse is a great touch, instantly evoking memories of the game. Minecraft Rapture's interior might not be a complete replica but many of the areas seen in the game are replicated as faithfully as possible and the creativity is clear throughout. Later on in the video, we see glimpses across Rapture from one of its highest points the sheer scale of this build is unreal. This is definitely a great tribute to one of gaming's finest cities. 9. The Starship Enterprise
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn2-d5a3r94 Star Trek spawned an unbelievably loyal and dedicated fanbase, so it's unsurprising that a recreation of the Starship Enterprise would be done with such care and attention to detail. Created in a very early build of Minecraft, this recreation of the Enterprise is terrifyingly massive with plenty of room to get lost in. While not everything is showcased in the above video, the inclusion of areas like Ten Forward and the Captain's Yacht is an indication of how closely detailed this version of the Enterprise is. There's even a docking port in the side, made almost entirely out of glass to add to the model. Definitely worth a look if you're a Star Trek fan. Or a fan of massive spaceships.
