Really useful post! Thanks!
I have one question, though. On the minecraft wiki, it was written that along with the 1.8 features, enchanting, brewing and The End will be added in the 1.8 update. This has now been changed, but I still wonder if this is (was) true?
Also, in what update will texture packs be added?
Unless 4JStudios decide to push enchanting, brewing, and The End to 1.8.2 (which they have said they are looking in to pushing brewing and or enchanting earlier, but no conformation if it will be done otherwise), then no.
Rest of your question is answered above.
There's no news on texture packs releasing with any updates. The best were going to get, however, is paid DLC. They're not going to release any mods or texture packs for free, unless they do something were you get a mod or a single texture pack as "trial" for a paid DLC.
Why does it take so long for them to implement an update?
4J has to completely re-write the code for Minecraft. PC Minecraft is written in the Java computer code but the xbox 360 only recognized C++ so 4J as to write everything from Java to C++ which can take awhile.
Have patience young padawan, it took them about this long to get these same updates for the PC version.
Question #1: I am currently trying to make a hidden door to my Fortress on a friend's server using Redstone, RS torches, and stone pressure plates.. but when i place the RSTorch it activates it and doesnt allow it to be deactivated.. does anyone know how i can fix this problem??
Question #2: Will there be a Creative Mode like the one on Minecraft (PC edition)?

@2: Yes. It's coming out with the upcoming 1.8.1 update.
@1: You need to have power run into the block that the Redstone Torch is on but you cant let the redstone dust run into the block that the Redstone torch is in.
hii i was wondring will we ever have a servers (the same as pc) .
and how will we be the same as the pc if the xbox do the update later than the pc
i mean if the pc have an update (A1) let's say for example in (1-1-2013)
then 4j have to re-write the (A1) update but if he re-write that update (it will be in 1-3-2013) < example
and by then the pc will be in (A2) so how could we catch the pc ?

We may have servers. 4Js discussing having rentable servers but that's still only an update.
If we catch up then Mojang could simply start informing 4J what they're programming into the game so 4J can go about programming it as well.

Best place to look is in the wiki at the pc updates however the 1.8 update we will be getting will not only have the 1.8.2 updates the pc got but also include some of the 1.9 updates, we however are not certain at the time what those updates will be.
I'm curious to know if a map has not spawned any cactus, is there still a chance it can grow later? I'm using -168268353 seed, which i think was Diamonds, or Diamonds, Diamonds, Diamonds. whichever it was.
Plenty of sandy spots, just no cactus. Got pumpkins and sugar cane. Those were a trip to get though.

I noticed on my latest world (which uses the worstseedever seed) that the map shows four 0s on x and z (2 each.) Is this normal and does it mean that there is no exact center to the world?

From my understanding no. It's like some people will not have snow, or some still don't have clay. There are maps without cactus.

Can you post a picture? I'm not quite sure what you mean.
No not at this time however there should be melon seeds in abandoned mineshafts which will be part of the next version update, which hopefully will be out end of this month beginning of next. That is a guess not confirmed on the release date.

We will. However it may not be for quite sometime because we're going to get 1.8.1 and then 1.2.5 and then we'll get the later updates.
do you know where i can find information on the next update at?

Forum AdminThat maybe wasn't big enough. There's lots of copyright issues and Microsoft Terms issues to be delt with long before we get a skin editor.
I've seen zombie, skeleton, spider, creeper, zombie pigman, ghast, and I believe slimes must exist since there are now sticky pistons.
No not at this time however there should be melon seeds in abandoned mineshafts which will be part of the next version update, which hopefully will be out end of this month beginning of next. That is a guess not confirmed on the release date.
Thats all the mobs at this however along with the next version update we do get 3 new mobs which are endermen, silverfish, and magma slime.
