Guys like us can remember 25 years ago when you got what you got. However, developers back then couldn't count on the ability to patch their games, so they tried harder to get it right the first time. I have lost count of the games released recently with the promise of some feature being delivered by update which should have been in the release.
apparently my friend you do not remember shadfu. lol
its hilarious how this thread went from why don't they update more often to a debate as to what an update actually is.
its all arbitrary, since the developers consider them all updates and we an call them what ever we want either way.
but to stay on topi... no there should be no council to decide if one version will get more updates or have more work done than the other.... this is minecraft Xbox 360 edition. if you want to be caught up to the PC version... play the PC version. id rather wait for a more polished update that gives us more and works better.... and honestly if you think about it if they broke the updates up into smaller updates it would actually take longer... since it would still take just as long to cert test and file the submission forms. were as less cert testing more polished out put and more content sounds much better to me than constantly updating to unplayable bugged out versions waiting for emergency bug fixes to download probably multiple times a week.
these are two different games. and comparing them is like comparing apples to orangutans..... and soon that will be even more evident since the Xbox version will be gettng unique content.
Once again the main flaw in this post is trying to compare the PC and xbox versions. You just can't do that, anymore than you can compare the xbox and PE versions.
I'd rather have an update once a month that has some substantial additions than a weekly 'snapshot' with 2-3 additions and many bug fixes cause they didn't have the time to throughly test it (go on, check out the latest snapshot on the Home page to see what I mean).
I'm not quite that old yet but I grew up on an Atari, SNES, and an N64. Back when companies took more pride in their games and made less things to just grab a quick bit of cash. Devs and publishers aren't totally to blame for it though. All the little sheeple just go with it and as along as that remains the same, nothing is going to change.
It definitely feels like that these days huh...
This is one noticeable difference I've seen, as if compounding on itself without remorse.

I disagree, I remember 1 bug fix added the sounds of thunder. I used to just stand on my porch every time it thunders cause it's so cool.
