I just thought about it, I think it would be totally possible for Minecraft to come to both Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. I think PS3 would be easier since you dont need anything approved, Sony is more flexible about online aspects. I would FOR SURE BUY IT FOR MY PLAYSTATION 3!!! Best part about this, everything people proably made in their world's is all INGAME!!! :smile.gif:
Wow and they wouldn't even barely need to make any new systems to work with the consoles. I think it would be AMAZING on my PS3!!! Every playstation 3 has a HDD, I mean both systems have micorphone and keyboard support. GOD DAMN!!! PLEASE HAVE X-MAS COME BIGGGG!!!!
Why not? Are you serious? There are probably so many people that haven't played this amazing game. The maker of this game deserves every dollar he can get out of it. If anything the dude who made this game is just like you and me just some regular dude, who tried to make a good game and make a couple bucks, and lucky enough it was a BIG ****ING HIT. Why wouldn't you want Minecraft ported to the consoles thats the dumbest thing I've heard. Man I love Minecraft, and I have a lot of friends that are just bad at computers, or just not into them like consoles. If it came to consoles I can see so many of my friend liking the game.
Why don't big companies port every single PC game to consoles? Think about it for a bit.
Maybe because it wasn't a BIG hit. Its without a doubt Minecraft is a PC game classic. I'm surprised that a lot of people don't think its an amazing idea yet.
Dude, who cares if big companies don't port every good PC game on the consoles. Who the **** cares. This is some regular dude who made Minecraft not even thinking it was going to be a hit probably. It probably just started as just something fun to make and went big! This game doesn't require a lot of power just to run it on the PCs. I'm pretty sure both current gen consoles can run Minecraft. **** there might be a problem running a Java application on the 360 & PS3 but damn, money can makes things work. The guy who made this game deserves every penny he can get. I'm sure he has a family that he needs to support so **** ***** LET HIM MAKE BANK WHILE ITS HOT. I don't care about BIG COMPANIES. This guy is like a one man team and is kicking ass. I think its totally worth doing whatever he has to do to make it on the consoles. ****! Don't even make it down loadable go all out, get a publisher and sell the hardcopy in stores. Pure bank. Epic. I don't see why you downing this idea. Its such a profitable idea and ****, it will for sure spared the word about Minecraft!
Edit: By the way, I didn't look to see if there was a topic on this already. But I'm glad there is, it shows that someone knows what to do, and what people want! :smile.gif:
Edit: I did look at that other thread, and looked over the first post... it says...

They're not PC fanboys, they're people with reasons and opinions as much as you are.
1. The control scheme would be inconvenient to implement.
2. Notch would lose a lot of control over the distribution of the game.
3. There are plenty of excellent indie games that are not on X-box live, and some people appreciate keeping it that way.
4. Putting the game on X-box live does damage the community, in that it exposes it to the sorts of people who regularly play and buy games on X-box live. We don't particularly want them influencing the development of the game.
1. ********. This game is pure profit. Anything that can happen right now is pure profit. Stats prove it.
2. Notch ain't loosing **** on the Playstation 3 and if Xbox/Micrsoft had Notch approve them with this game I'm sure mircosoft would do anything for this game to get on there xbl store.
3. Yeah, many indie games aren't on the xbox 360 live store, but still what does this have to do with Minecraft being on there. And who cares if they like it not being on the store. Them people are just pure dumb, then I would be able to play Minecraft pretty much everywhere (At least someone within prolly 5 people have either an xbox 360 or ps3, I dont know about your friends but A LOT of my friends own at least one console. I have a small High school, and like almost everyone I graduated with had xbox live. Idk like a graduating class of 300? Something really small... ???)
4. **** no. Its an indie game, if you don't know what an indie game is then search it on google. Then you'll understand why there so many ****ing shitty indie games on the xbox live indie store.

As you can see I'm so "Pro" porting Minecraft to consoles.
Think of why they don't port them. Hint: time, money.
Dude shut up. The dude made a million on PC sales. Pure profit bro.... You can't tell me thats not enough for a console game. This game is huge on PC....YOU CANT JUST TELL ME SOMEONE WOULDN'T GIVE FUNDS IF NEEDED. Im sure a company would, if the PC was such a hit.... why wouldnt the console version be the same. Cmon dude think, stop with the lame small sentences. You know im right. Your just dissing it. Let the maker make millions.
Edit: And I know the game isn't in beta, but still I think its pretty damn playable for Alpha. I'll call it a game itself. (And if your gonna argue about making a console version of an alpha game... then they can easily be fixable... make it a downloadable game and have updates! Or better yet, Notch should wait intill the actual games is released then do a console version!)
Edit: Sorry, for being sooo rude. But I wish it would come out... probably wont though :sad.gif:
Yeah... I know....I seen that post...but is there a thread or something of it I could read him saying that? I would like to know the reasons how come. Sucks though....makes me wanna cry.... I would be so happy if it actual did happen though. Most things like this wouldn't though :sad.gif:. Sorry for being rude.
No. Notch said no. We all say no. NoobOfLore was correct with all those statements that you tried to prove wrong and epicly failed to do so. Mod, please, lock this thread!

The interent: Where men are men, women are men and kids are FBI agents
So....
You want a port just because you dont want to play in the PC or for the people who cannot afford a PC...
Yep this IS ********
You can afford a friggin 500$ machine but cannot afford 200$ PC(atleast one that can run minecraft)?
Shame on you
If you dirty console gaming class needs minecraft,YOU need to give the Noble PC playing class some awesome console exclusive games
hahahaha TF2 on consoles is terrible. Have you played the Pc version? anyways this will almost never happen unless notch sells the rights to the game because notch doesn't code c++. lol TF2 on consoles......so funny.

Muncher is right, listen to him, he can cure the blind and make paraplegics walk.
Notch said no not because he was lazy, but that it was impossible.
First of all: MC runs on Java. There have been several suggestions that could have been done by switching the engine over to C or another language. Why not?
Well, porting code like this takes a lot of time.
You've (Not talking about anyone in particular) been complaining about a couple weeks off.
Now imagine him taking half a year off so he could port the code to a different language.
What does this have to do with consoles you may ask?
Porting to consoles is harder than porting to a different language.
Not only would it need to be ported to another language, but there would be many hoops and lots of red tape for Notch to navigate to make bringing MC to consoles a possibility.
So no.
TL;DR Notch said NO many times in the past. Because it cannot be done, not because he is 'lazy'
Never would it be ported. Porting means "loss" of quality.
The console wars recently had a lot of fingers pointing at PS3 just because it is "so difficult" to program, but in reality many games from the PS3 WAS PORTED from the 360. Why? Because It was easier.
Now onto PC and consoles comparison, PC is closer to the 360, but still not quite. PC has a LOAD more freedom over consoles in general.
Now portables... Portable gaming for Minecraft WON'T DO IT JUSTICE! All you'll end up doing is porting a laggy game into a portable that will lag every time water has animated or if a creeper exploded.
I mean, the game lags a decent level computer when you do complex stuff... Now imagine how crappy the lag will be on a console?
Only! Only if it is finished and notch is done with it and it is amazing will that have a vague chance of happening. Poor notch though, whatever he makes after that people will always say minecraft was better...
Wow and they wouldn't even barely need to make any new systems to work with the consoles. I think it would be AMAZING on my PS3!!! Every playstation 3 has a HDD, I mean both systems have micorphone and keyboard support. GOD DAMN!!! PLEASE HAVE X-MAS COME BIGGGG!!!!
Your thoughts ladies and gentlemen?

P.S. !!!
