Just a simple question, that has probably been asked a thousand times at this point. I would appreciate a potential reply from a dev.

Are world size increases planned for the future, or being looked in to? I understand that the Xbox 360 has its limitations, based namely on its limited RAM.

However, I've seen other games of a similar fashion with much larger worlds than Minecraft. Granted some lack many of the features available in Minecraft, I still don't see how it isn't possible. I'm not asking for essentially infinite worlds, I just want something larger.

Villages are painfully easy to find, and fortresses are as well. With all of these new biomes, features, and constructs increased wolrd sizes are a necessity. :/

I can deal with my current world size, for now. However, when you introduce villagers and such, things will begin getting congested and less enjoyable. I play the Xbox 360 version of the game far less than other games due to the lack of exploring value, which is in my opinion half of the fun of Minecraft.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, I'd like to get a nice discussion going if possible.

I agree with all your points. I'd really love to see a much larger world size and the ability to join games (especially with the added host options).
