How about you? Do you want to play a little mc on the xbox early?

No, because I don't want a demo. I want to be able to play the full game. If I start playing a demo it will just make me want to play the whole game.

But what if the demo was uber satisfying. What if it was a small world that didnt save your creations and had multiplayer?

There is always a demo for an Arcade game but you have to wait for the actual game to come out. So yeah, I doubt they'd change that just for Minecraft.

It's not like you don't know anything about the game itself.
We don't need a "demo".

i agree droobey

^^^^^ Um, No they didn't... 1600 is standard for most major Spring/Summer titles.

What are you talking about? The maximum price for Xbox Live Arcade games has always been 1600 points. there have just been few games big enough to warrant the pricing of 1600 points.

Personally, I would rather they just released it in April, there is no need for a demo, if you want to see what the game is like, just play it on the PC.

Not every one has a pc. i think a demo would be good to introduce new people to the game without commiting 1600 ms points to something you may not enjoi. Although i think tht would be doubtful as its the most addictive game i have ever played. Its just brilliant looking forward so much to this xbox release!!! :-)

As with all arcade games there will be a trial available upon the release of the game, so if anyone has doubts about purchasing the game they can try it out then.

Actually, Microsoft released a Demo for Dead Space before it came out.

That is different, When it comes to XBLA Trials, They come out when the game does.

We dont.
The rest of XBL who prefer pointing a gun at something in a game however...

I really hate it when people generalize all Console gamers as nothing but mindless idiots who enjoying shooting everything in sight..

Well yeah, but truthfully speaking, I have a ps3
Minecraft Demo for console? Yes.

I'm sorry, I dont quite understand this statement, I have 2 seperate xbox live accounts both with full friends lists, and as far as I can tell all of those friends, and their friends, and their friends all dislike the shooters of xbox live. Thus we, being a decent sized group of xbox live, do not, in fact, prefer to point a gun at something in a game
