I have read a few post on this forum which deal with how worlds which have been already spawned and explored may not get updated. This may at first seem to be a tragedy, but what may come to the aid of many xbox minecrafters is the new creative mode. With this mode you can spawn most of the things that would be added(as long as I understand creative mode correctly). The only thing that you will miss out on is npc villages, strongholds (strongholds may be 1.2.3 though), and possibly new biomes (not sure if you can change biomes in creative). I know in my world I have no snow biomes so I am going to spawn some pine trees. That is why I won’t restart my world. P.S. I do want my world to be 100% legit, but would make a few compromises.
Hopefully the font is easier to read now. I didn't know before that I could change the font size.
Religion, has actually convinced people, that there's an invisible man, living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of the day, and the invisible man has a special list. Of 10 things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do ANY of these ten things he has a special place, full of fire, and smoke, and burning, and torture, and will send you there to suffer and choke and scream for all of eternity... But he still loves you.
The problem is (from what I understand, though I haven't played the PC version so I could be wrong) is that a world created in survival stays survival, and a world created in creative stays creative. You can switch players into creative using SMP server commands, but there hasn't been confirmation of us being able to do anything like that in the Xbox 360 version. Please feel free to correct me.

This is true. Unless 4J allows it to be changed, worlds in survival mode will permanently stay in survival mode when 1.8 comes around.
You will be required to start a new world if you want the features such as melons, mineshafts, new biomes, etc.
If you just create everything they added in creative, that removes all the fun of exploring the open world for yourself. I guess people can do this, but wheres the fun?
isn't this next update bringing bigger worlds? if it is i am sooo going to start a new world.
There is no confirmation of it yet. People WANT bigger world because of the new terrain generation. 4J is looking into increasing world sizes but that is all that is known for now.

Dude i feel the same way about Creative. I don't get why people sweat it so much. it seems so lame and boring. Playing legos would seem to me to be more fun lol
I wasn’t referring to mine shafts, npc villages, ravines, and strongholds I wouldn’t add those to my world in creative because the fun is in finding them. I was thinking more along the lines of the things left out of my world currently and things like melons, possibly a blaze spawner, nether wart, plants and blocks that are added in the 1.8 update. I don’t think that adding one mellon seed one pine tree and a few of the other additions would ruin a survival world just because it didn’t spawn when the world was created which was pre 1.8 and 1.7. Of corse this could all be a moot point if you can’t go in to a current survival world in creative mode to make the adjustments, which is really all i would have ever used creative mode for. If you can’t switch from one mode to another then creative mode is pretty pointless in my opinion.
From the get go, you probably won't be able to switch between modes on the same world. It may never end up like that.
Also, Creative Mode isn't pointless really. It's there for people who just want to build things. It's a Lego set without the millions of pieces to deal with.
oh, i thought he wanted to create the songholds and npc villages. I understand that creative is for people that want to build immense or artistic structures without the worries of enemies and health. I just thought he was saying there is no point of getting the update if you can just build everything yourselfedit: strongholds

Roses are red, here's something new.
Violets are violet, not freakin' blue.
4J said they will look into it, but it's not confirmed for 1.8.
