Their new game is supposedly a futuristic shooter

can someone explain what makes this game so addictive? is it that much fun?

I had the same question you did. Then I just downloaded it to see for myself. It's a shit ton of fun.

There are two modes: Survival and Creative.

Survival is what it says. You have health and hunger meters. There are wild animals you can kill to get food, supplies and a companion. There are enemies that will run rampant at night or in caves. There is no other point in this mode other than survive. You can craft stuff, dig stuff, mine stuff, grow stuff, explore stuff, build stuff.

Creative mode is just for building stuff. You have unlimited supplies and can build whatever the hell you want. Want to build a castle? Go ahead. Want to build a city complete with skycrapers and stores? Go ahead.

I suggest you watch some videos of it. If you like what you see, look up some videos from the Achievement Hunter guys from Rooster Teeth. They're absolutely hilarious, especially if you understand the game.

Xbox 'Durango' Requires All Games to be Installed

"Every Durango console will have a hard drive, although its exact capacity has not been chosen," reads help documentation in the Durango XDK. "It will be large enough, however, to hold a large number of games. All games will be installed on the hard drive. Play from the optical disc will not be supported."

That's for you to decide after playing it. In my opinion I would have paid $60 for this game and felt like that was a fair price.

also what is MP like?

MP is either split screen, or by invite/seed. Multiplayer is only needed if you want to do things faster. Like dig, build, or whatever. More than one person obviously gets things done faster, but is definitely not necessary.
