First of all, I'm tired of hearing "Omg, The game's staying at 1.6.6?! Definatly not buying it now!"
It's been confirmed that They will update the game (at an unknown rate)
- There will be Skins
- There will be Mods
- There will be Texture Packs
(All Much later, but still)
It's Rumoured is that 4J will try to break the 8 Player Xbox Live limit and add more.
The only thing I could possibly let ANYONE complain about is that its starting at 1600 Microsoft Points, but then again you have 2 Months! to go and find 20$!!
Anyways, this is mainly towards the Derpy little kids that dont take time to Research, If you already knew all this: Cookies for you.
Wait, your complaining about it costing $20?! I originally thought that it would be $60, but then I remember how good mojang is with making a huge profit by selling cheap stuff.
Forum with no age limit = tons of illiterate 8 year olds, but i see in your OP you noticed the same fact, see for all you children thats called reading ALL the way through before replying, btw back in like oct. when i first heard this i thought it was going to be a full on disc game for like 30 or 40$ then as i researched i was estatic to find that it has a 20$ limit

Are you sure mods & texture packs are confirmed? I have heard about skins being in an update, but all I have heard about mods & texture packs on the Xbox is speculation & teasing by the developers. I don't think they've actually confirmed them.
You do not know 100% without a doubt that things like mods and texture packs will be available. It's all hear say and guessing until we actually hear something from 4J. Other than that, they've only said they will look into those things, that's all.
They said texture packs and skins would happen.
Mods? Well once they have an integrated modding api surely it will be added to the xbox version. Also it has been said that once the xbox version has caught up with the pc version they may look into crossplatform play so that xbox can leave the 8 player limit and be able to play essentially with "mods"(bukkit) but they will not be clientside obviously. All there really is is rumors though.
And regardless, I'd rather play Minecraft in Alpha.

To my understanding this would never be likely to happen because of Microsoft's strict no modication policy.
Either way, the minecraft port on xbox will never, EVER be nearly able to compare with the pc's superiority.
You do know that one major problem with the PC is just how easy it is to cheat in any game. Why I was playing Dungeon Defenders the other day and I couldn't find a single game with people who had LEGIT characters. That's just how bad it's gotten on the PC. Then I went to Brickforce, only to find a spanish hacker, despite the fact that the game is only in closed beta. The fact that someone already made a hack for a game that's still in closed beta shows you a lot about the PC. One thing I can breath easily about on the X-box version is that someone won't be using an pika client or an x-ray pack. The fact is people will cheat on any game they can find. I've seen people go so far as to hack Robot Unicorn Attack. Cheating on a mother flippin' two button game for christ sake.
The thing that gets me is how all these kids are going absolutely crazy and just can't wait to get their hands on it. There was so much "release date" garbage that the mods just deleted it all (thank goodness).
This isn't a new game- it's an older version of one you already have and can play on the PC.
This isn't "Minecraft 2" or anything.
This is a rerun.
This is an old show.
And it will be "crippled" when released.
It will not have all the bells and whistles of the PC version (and may never have).
So why all the PC players are so foaming-at-the-mouth excited is beyond me! This is like "Civ2 is coming to xbox!".... So?
However, for those just now getting it because it will come out on the xbox, I can see the excitement. Those people will finally get the play the "real thing". They need the tutorial and auto-crafting.
I just hope the MC "old timers" don't **** the newbies off, cause believe me, they're coming!

Well, this isn't a clear cut & dry case of one version being more superior than the other. Both versions have many tradeoffs. Some of which make all the difference for people. Like split-screen and finally being able to play at a smooth frame rate. On the other hand some people can't live without their mods. In my particular case I find playing with other people on a vanilla server to be dreadfully boring. I love servers with a working economy. But I also love playing games on the couch locally with my family. Everyone else has their own tastes, so you can't go saying that one version is automatically better than the other. Heck, some nostigia dweebs enjoy the older versions of minecraft more than the new. So I'm sticking with the quote "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" and no one person is fit to judge for everyone. edit: sorry about the one big paragraph, I'm using my 3DS so the scripting seems to be off or something.

It's an older version that will be on par in terms of updates with the PC in a short while. I'm a PC player and love the fact that things like Auto-Crafting have been added. I'm tired of forgetting a recipe, pausing Minecraft, opening my browser, going to the wiki, and then searching for the crafting recipe. It's pointless, annoying, and completely breaks you out of the mood of the game.
The only "bells and whistles" the Xbox version won't have is massive servers and possibly mods. those are two things that a lot of people don't care about in the fist place. Most people only plan on playing with 8 of their friends and are glad they don't have to deal with port forwarding. And as far as mods go, people have grown tired of them or don't care about them in the first place so it's not really going to bother them.
The Xbox version will eventually be very close to on par with the PC version so just deal with it.

Did I help? Click that green button!
Less enjoyable.
It isn't a port. Its rebuilding the game from scratch. There's a difference :/

Rain was released on the Minecraft 1.5_01. Yes, there will be rain.
