when you get to the end of the map do you appear on the other side of the world or is it just water + barrier?
No, it should read: "When you get to the edge of the map do you appear on the other side of the world or do you run into a barrier but all you see is water beyond the barrier?"
It's the latter.
(But you knew that already, right?)

to answer the exact question. in minecraft Xbox the world is a square. the outer area is always water which looks infinite but isnt. there is an infinite barrier. to prove it - look at a map.
I have a local server that I've setup to play minecraft (PC version) on with my kids (I bought 3 copies of the game to do this). One idea my youngest daughter came up with is making a railroad track that goes around the world. While this would be a fun project, it really depends on how the world is created. If there's no boundary roll over this would mean the gaming world is flat and the track would never meet it's starting point. I've tried looking into this but there doesn't seem to be a consensus on this. Some say it's a flat plane that's randomly created as the player approaches, some say endless water is created when you reach a boundary... Is there any here that could shed some light on this? Could we make a track that goes right around the game world?
It does have a limit, i think its like 7000 x 7000
Yes you can
Completely false here. The PC Versions limit is 30 million blocks in each direction, so the world is 60,000,000 x 60,000,000.
And no... You can't build a railroad track around the world, and even if the world looped back around, the project would take months, perhaps years.

But yeah, what they said. The MC world isn't round.
False, just straight out false.
N00bs.
