Meh, everytime a game is ported over to another platform it usually ends in disaster. I mean its just normal minecraft but instead of a mouse you use an unruly joystick. Whatever, maybe 360 players can get on PC servers. You can hope, especially PVP they won't stand a chance.
Minecraft was the only reason I ever used a PC for gaming. SO EXCITED FOR MULTIPLAYER ON XBOX LIVE!
I can DEFINITELY see how they can fit the controls for the Xbox controller, but the only thing I'm not sure about is the crafting...

2 thumbsticks, if used well, are much better than an UP,DOWN,LEFT,and RIGHT key and with only the mouse unrestricted.
Minecraft will be a perfect fit to an Xbox controller. The only problem I see is crafting...
all I see are Fan-boy replies so far, whine whine whine.
Here's why it's a great thing, or at least possibilities of great things:
Dedicated Hosted Servers
All systems the same - all easy 100% compatible gameplay
Multiplayer achievements that mean something
Hack Resistant
XRay Resistant
More openly available 'join in' play network, face it finding servers on PC is tough for good ones, host and have lists such as the Database in multiplayer console control and it's nearly instant join access.
Lag removal.
Kinect Possibilities.
The only reason you don't seem to like it is - you can't mod/edit the game (and most of those mods ruin the games real Core Values, like SURVIVAL) and/or you whine you have a PS3 (that was your choice btw)
So stay on PC, play your pitiful 'everything is given to you with edit commands' servers and provide less congestion for the real players.
Exactly. But...I'm nearly 90% sure they wouldn't completely forget the modding community. That right there is maybe half of the players. Hopefully they have many mods pre-installed and you could turn them on or off?
That's just how I wish it would be. I still play vanilla Minecraft, however.
why would i buy it on the 360 i wouldn't have any mods and if i really wanted to i could hook up a xbox controller and hook up my pc screen to sow into my tv srry dont know what they are called tho I would maybe consider buying it if people who have already bought the game get a discount or something then i would consider buying it till then ill use my cables to make it feel like its on the xbox for a cheaper price
It's been announced the PC and Xbox versions are cross-compatible.
That would almost guarantee some sort of mod support.
I don't get it. When I bought Minecraft Alpha, I could have sworn it had told me that we would get all expansions for free. If this is true and I remember correctly, why do we have to pay for the Pocket Edition and the Xbox version. Granted a couple of bucks isn't a lot to spend on this great game, but I bought Alpha with the knowledge that I was getting something extra.
Come on Notch, stay true to your word >.<
FOR THE LAST TIME. Pocket Edition = IS A DIFFERENT VERSION OF MINECRAFT. Xbox edition = BEING PORTED BY ANOTHER COMPANY.
Mojang ment the DLC'S would be free when the game is released.
Ok I tired of hearing this question, Minecraft will not support mods. The Xbox can't handle editing games like the PC can. Also to use mods on the xbox it would take months for Microsoft to make sure it's ok to use. So all you would get is the hardcore original game with multilayer with it. I don't know if you will be able to edit your skins tho...
if they invested the time on PC, not on XBOX the game was even better than it is.
Well, the funny thing is that MOJANG ISN'T WORKING ON THE XBOX VERSION. They have a team that's coding everything for xbox, wile Mojang is working on the PC version.
why cant it come out for ps3? xbox alredy has fortesscraft and now they get minecraft what a gay rip off
So xbox has Total Miner, Fortresscraft, and Castle Miner right now. Xbox has TONS of indie games that you can download and play. MC will be another one. PS3 has no MC-like games, or few indie games (compared to xbox) for that matter. Why not? Because PS3 isn't as "indie" friendly. Apparently MS makes it much easier and financially viable to work with them- compared to Sony.
My point is that we should quit blaming Notch for not putting MC on PS3. Remember: "Follow the money." So "why can't it come out for PS3?"
I'd ask/blame Sony!
well to me i don't think it matters that much. Yea I'm glad that minecraft has grown so much since 1.3 beta (when i started) But don't you think we could finish the game before releasing it to console?
I can DEFINITELY see how they can fit the controls for the Xbox controller, but the only thing I'm not sure about is the crafting...

Retired StaffNo it's not a FortressCraft rip-off. It's a genuine Minecraft version for the Xbox.
Venit, quessit, induravit.
360 is made for sport and racing games =P or split screen games imo
