I don't think the xbox version is behind, but I feel like they could have added some things that are well liked/love. Don't get me wrong about the End yet I see it as pointless (except maybe for a ender farm). More than likely the stuff (jungles and reversed stairs/slabs) that I am (probably some others as well) is coming next update of some sort. That is my opinion at least, and amen OverlookeDEnt
Edit: Also the PC has texture packs.... I haven't heard anything from 4J about those for us for some time now. I feel a little iffy that we will get them at all.
I just feel disappointed that there was 1)No deeper superflat worlds or superflat custom options. 2)No nether reset 3) I cant acess my maps online without buying gold

1) Super Flat options were not added on the PC until much, much later than what we are currently equivalent to. Title Update 9 is equivalent to the PCs 1.1 for the most part. Customizable Super Flat was not added until the PCs 1.4.2. That is 3 massive updates ahead of where we are now.
2)There is a Nether Reset. When you load a world, go into the "More Options" selection and it's right there.
3)You can access your maps online without buying a gold membership. Unfortunately, there is a bug that Microsoft and 4J are well aware of and are in the process of fixing at the moment.
I wouldn't care one bit if I had to pay for the updates on Xbox as long as they worked.
I only hope they can get a fix out to update this last patch because it was terrible. Then if they'd say give us 5 months and we'll have Xbox caught up to PC guess what I'd be perfectly fine with that.
We all wish updates were quicker.
We all wish all bugs were squashed and we had a perfect game with perfect updates.
But that's not gonna happen with a game as complicated as MC. And throwing more people at it isn't gonna fix anything- it'll just make things more complicated.
This. I'm satisfied with what 4j has given us so far. Considering the 360's limitations, I feel like they've done very well and I'm not going to nag them to do better.
"Sorry! In order for you to have access to the diamond tool pack you need to pay 0.99 Cents, or you can buy it with 50 Minecraft Premium points!" -If EA made Minecraft on the 360.
"Error 54760: Servers are down. Please try to purchase later."
-snip-
I'm just happy they try their hardest to update it (ForFree)... then they break it... then they fix it... then they break it... then they fix it... then they break it... then they fix it!.. It's a beautiful cycle!
I used to play an MMO where all their updates were free (after buying it originally for $50, then $10 a month after that (technically $30 every three), and you wouldn't believe how many things they messed up with each update... one of their updates added in a boss that was unbeatable for a full year after it was released, because it was so buggy. By the time it was beaten for the first time, the items you got from killing it had been surpassed greatly (like wining a model t, when you could have won a 66 mustang). I guess 2 years of swallowing (and paying a grand total of $290) bugs that broke various mechanics of the game (like one that was rampant for a while, players were unable to get healed because they had recently been in the designated PvP area's (no in-game factions like WoW, but the PvP aspect was added at a later date, as an after thought because it was requested so much) and quickly led to all PvP stopped until the bug was fixed, which took about 2 months) that i got used to not really caring if a game has bugs, i get over it, and keep playing...
so...many...paragraphs. I have a terrible headache from reading all of this (rubs temples).
On topic, it all comes down to the fact that Minecraft on the xbox is exactly that. It can't do the fancy things that PC can. But on the contrary it could be updated faster. Although I would like the game to be bug free before adding new features that create more glitches and bugs.
I'm sure 4J are working hard to fix things.
Nicely put

Again, noone said they have to give it to us. Would you not enjoy a 360 version updated to the PC version? I find it hard to believe your completely satisfied with what you have in this game. This being because one of my favorite parts of this game is the rate new ideas are brought into consideration by the developers. This thread is a community encouragement to bring us more new content and at the a similiar rate to PC instead of being forced to wait and fight through bugs to enjoy the full aspect of the game. Personally I think you wasted quite some money on a monthly membership to anything as it's pretty obvious, they've already made and are still making a killing. Especially you noted the bugs as bad as they were. This is what I am aiming for. The community to make the push to 4J that this is more than just 'some indie game' this game has the potential to go very far. Maybe your not frustrated now, but imagine when they don't test the next update and using an efficiency pick-axe crashes your server. That would bug you right? Well I cannot see at 100% gamma when I mine on a new server. Yes I have gotten around it and used old servers, but that doesn't mean it's not a problem to be addressed and fixed.
Again everyone is acting like I hate 4J and Mojang. I LOVE THEIR WORK, AND I LOVE WHAT THEY'VE DONE!
I also understand this game to be hugely community influenced, and if they don't hear our complaints, they won't do anything about it.
Thanks for reading!

Look this is not like they at curb selling generators for 2000 bucks after a hurricane only worth 500 bucks, I have had my beefs with Mojang and 4J and I know they have heard me as a consumer.
I have gone off at 4jsteve like a bomb from time to time thinking he was not listening to me only to find out he had and the issue was fixed or the option was added.
You are welcome to flame me and on this point I know there are some bugs I have not run across many yet that are a bug problem. I will be posting them in the bug area.
Still because of nervous system damage it make the pc version almost impossible for me to play and I own it so the Xbox version is a blessing, I sit for hours playing now instead of sleeping around the clock.
I helps me forget about my illness and get me to another place till exhaustion kicks in and have to stop or I have to take my meds.
Their patches have kept this world going since day one and it just keeps getting bigger.
I have a world that started the day this came out and I am still building it today and I used the rebuild neither feature and added my blazes I was up for 60 hours rebuilding my nehter back to the way it was with out this game I don't think I could have found it with in my self to push past the pain and forget the real world and create.
I hope this game continues to progress as it has more bug free then it has though, the silver bug got me on renewal yesterday, I thought my worlds were done I just went to sleep in a real deep depression not knowing what to do next. So I just shut my Xbox off and called it quits. I was real happy when they loaded this this morning again and all was good making life good once again.
I know they are trying, at least "I" believe they are trying.
Things I like the lighting sound, I wish I could hear the rain drops as they fall over my percale deafness , that would be so great. you cant were hearing aids in the rain as they cost 5k bucks and your only allow one set per 5 years or with a 250 deductible.
The nether update with blazes, best part of the update.
Spawn eggs for villagers, and mooshrooms, Ender dragon.
Thanks for letting the ender portal work in this world as well, even though I had to ad it.
The list go on as I find them.
I would like my arrow machine to work again to kill people with that was so nice arrow ally so many dead so many rage quits from my Aztec maze over this I have had to plug the holes.

Now for those of you commenting saying there are bigger better things to worry about. Which in my case there are, but beyond that take a moment and stand in this players shoes. This game is not only therapeutic, but seems to be one of the only things that makes this person feel better. I understand that feeling. Having a world all your own to explore. I would really not like to see this came take a wrong turn, and end up just another game we played for a year or two. I believe in this game going bigger and farther every day, and it's stories like this that make me feel my point deserves to be heard.
Thank you personally EvilDogBoy, and continue to enjoy minecraft. If you'd like someone to play with from time to time, shoot me a message I'll return a friend request.
Thanks again for reading everyone!

The reason why it's so behind is because they have to convert to code from pc to console, which takes a little while to do. Also, the xbox is rather limeted seeing that it only has 1/2 GB of RAM (i'm pretty sure).
I'm also wondering why your twitter account was suspended? more over opinionated nonsense?
it is called trade name infringement, copy right infringement. there is a plethora of other legal terms that can be used to describe this actionable offence. Mine Craft has a right to protect there company and trade name, there is even a cyber crime outlined that was passed in congress concerning this action in the USA.
Wow, lots of arguing here. Funny that you guys are arguing this much over a game. It was 20$. If you don't like it, don't play it. Last I checked, spending 20$ didn't leave me homeless.
I agree that the last update was lacking in content, but it was a free update. Why you looking a gift horse in the mouth? If you say updates are killing your game, then don't update. It's not like you are required to. Stop making fuss and play a different game. There are more important things going on, than if 4J makes money. I hope they do, they made deal with mojang, wrote game for xbox, and distributed. Good for them, they should be paid for working and making this product a available and I am sure you would want same.
Best $20 EVER spent on entertainment, i've been glued to the xbox since i purchased the game 4 months ago. What does $20 get you now days on entertainment...........Not alot, i could goto the pub and have 1 drink with my friends, or maybe buy a friend a dinner at mcdonalds becuase thats all you could afford with $20. go and put $20 into a pokie machine, it will last 1 min, if that, go and put $20 in your petrol tank it will get you to work and back and thats it.... for the 4 months of entertainment i have gotten for the $20 spent i am more then happy. Sure updates come with bugs, and sure the game could be better, the graphics could be like all other new games (good) the game could have a story mode, etc etc, bugs in the game from what i understand, can and have been used to an advantage to those who now how and figure it out for as long as the game has been around. Such as making water float, is a bug, a very useful one.
I would also like to point out something I believe hasn't even been pointed out yet.
The Xbox 360 Edition isn't meant to catch up to or be like the PC version. Mojang and 4J have said from the get go that this is going to be a different game than the PC version once they reach an equivalent 1.2.3 update.
So if one of your main points is that we are very far behind the PC, then the point isn't valid because we were never going to catch up to the PC in the first place.

your correct there 9 dollars is one person at Burger King
that's picking a number on the thing above the girls
I have been playing this on xbox version since its release I have had my ups and downs on the game I am still playing one of the same worlds I first created in survival as that was the only mode.
There were moments I was about to walk away from because of the bug isssues, they have come through and patched it and save my would and pulled it out of the fire and put it back in to the pan were it belonged several times.
I do have to say it has come along way it were not for the Xbox version I would have just given up on Mine craft all together my sons still pay the PC version. I know the xbox will never do what theirs do I thinks it cool what theirs do with the grass and sky mods and all the things that can do.
I tried to adapted the xbox controller to my PC to make it work at just was not the same that's when the 20 inch when out the window not because of mine craft, it was because of my hands and my mind I can not make things work like you guys do.
I can make thing happen in this mine craft Xbox360 and feel good that I have spent time creating something even though it is not inspecting hydro eclectic dams, bridge inspections, oilrigs, pipelines, ditch digging on the bottom of the ocean or some mud hole in the gulf or project in over seas any more. I have to say Xbox help me stay connect to people around the word, and places I miss because people around the are not that much different only in how they say it or how they live and there governments.
I do wish there were some way to add some valves, pipeline, Iron beams, pieces that would be really cool I would put an oil rig in my world or a floating DPV = Dynamic Positioning Vessel at sea in my word with a Diving Bell.
This game does help me keep some stability or grip from day to day. and I only hope it gets better.
okay i didnt read everything BUT
i read the original post
why probably cause the xbox is very limited
but why ddi the portable one get it not xbox
probably trying to entice more peoples to get protable
why the pc...
cause it originated from pc... msot of the gamers who plays it will probably be on the pc cause it easier for them to update i bet because the pc has more freedom so to speak compare to teh 360
that all been said i am as well a controller gamer rather then a keyboard and mouse but i can do any if the games good i dont care and it shouldnt matter
but yes the 360 version should get attention more then pocket in my opinion but they are doing waht they can and if they hire more peoples they got to output mroe stuff faster and better to keep them all employee with only 43 they can make there ppls happier and more wanting to get to work is my guess why only 43 peoples
