Free 3rd Birthday Skin Pack for the 360 and One Editions available May 9th. They're also re-releasing the 1st and 2nd Birthday skin packs until May 17th.
Honestly for as popular as this game still is I'm pretty disappointed in the frequency and quality of updates rolling out. I pretty much stopped playing for 6+ months, came back and it is still largely the same. I know of some games if they weren't updated every 5-6 weeks the customers would be up in arms, and nobody even says anything about the lethargic nature of 4J. They haven't even added a quality texture pack in months and all the recent ones have been rubbish anyways. Literally I could have did more in a few hours then they have did in 6 months.

If you say so. There's an old adage that says "Money talks and bullcrap walks."
I guess I shouldn't be surprised with the comments. Exaggerating, yes with the use of literally but I have made my own little games for pc, of course nothing on this level or nothing even published for that matter. I've been through some university level programming classes and made several stand alone programs written with vb.net for my own personal use. I'm familiar with c#, java, and python, by no means fluent, but I could certainly make edits and additions if I had source code. Anyways, I'm referring to keeping up with the pc version a bit better and perhaps texture/mash up dlc's that they would profit from.I can't imagine it would take a graphical artist more than a few days work to make an entire texture pack, having a solid theme probably being the hardest part as simple as the graphics are.
I'm sure the fanboys don't like hearing anything perceived as negative but sometimes criticism and feedback however it is perceived it exactly what is needed. Sure I exaggerated a bit, but my point still stand, its a pathetic effort from 4J/Microsoft or whoever is in charge MC console edition to keep the game current and popular.
If I remember correctly this game has sold well over 10 million copies, probably more by now, I'm just guessing really. (edit, I just looked it up, its over 54 million copies sold, that is console edition only). It wouldn't take 1% of the revenue to hire a few good programmers and have some better (more robust) and more frequent updates. Not 6 months worth of bug fixing, thats ridiculous. That is all.
I'd rather wait for the official word that it's coming. If I posted everything there would be a whole lot of clutter here. I'm not responsible for the main post though.
i saw this several minutes ago. look at the dorr it seems a bit brighter then normal i was thinking it's possible that they are also adding colored doors.

Looks like they are going to go to 1.8. Looking forward to the update and being able to go and explore a little. Doing my best to not load our whole world but everyone keeps creeping out a little further.

Twitter post from the other day sas "do you mean like a 'classic' crafting option?"
the title of the thread was updated for the date but doesn't actually have the link/ text in the main body. Not complaining just informing.

That's a good point, I suppose at this point it would still just be a rumor, even if it's source is "the" source. Lol

Posting this here because the picture in the tweet contains teasers for the next update. Colored-fences.

Looks like. The screenshot is also on a custom flatland.

I think I'll start a new world, I've already seen so much ocean that I feel like I'll be missing out on ocean temples.

This was a party they had. Not seeing anything Minecraft-y with these.
