UPDATE: Notch confirms separate team is working on the Minecraft for XBOX Live Arcade. More details to follow later.
The game, based on the images shown at the press conference, retains its classic graphics style. One huge reveal for the console port, however, is that it's coming complete with Kinect functionality.
This looks to be a big week for Minecraft, as the mobile version will be demoed on the Xperia Play during the E3 Expo as well.
If you'd like to hear it yourself, it's around the 1:30 mark.
Be sure to follow Curse's E3 coverage this week!
You say that almost as if to imply that's not what the Minecraft community was like from the very start, and as if an influx of console gamers will even change that at all, let alone for the worse.
Thanks for beta testing my game hahaha
360 here we go
It's also kind of odd to criticize Minecraft for customer support when its team is about 10 members (and the actual development consists largely of one), so frankly, even the amount we get right now is pretty generous, all things considered.
Oh don't be ****ing melodramatic. It's not as if the entire game revolves around modded content, or that the game is completely unplayable in vanilla format. There's no "ruined" about it.
Also I might add that we don't actually know what their stance on modded content is as far as the 360 port is concerned anyway, so shut your trap until we get some actual info on it.
You don't have to.
Kinect is optional, and the game still has support for a standard pad setup. I can't believe people are still bitching about a side gimmick that isn't even mandatory.
