True I see what you mean but will it be as good a computer edition?
The PC version will always be better. It will always have more and it will always be bigger. They're never going to let people mod the console versions and they're never going to let people make their own skins or texture packs.
That stuff is going to remain on the PC. Consoles will always be closed systems.
Well yeah I see your points but what margin do you think that the xbox one will be behind. Because at this point it seems that Mahjong is going to update all console editions. Do you think that Xbox one edition will be a lot more original than any other minecraft versions.

I doubt it. The console versions are just updating behind the PC version at this point. So they're basically older versions of the PC game. With the lack of a larger world, mods, etc.
There is very little that is original in the console versions. Not enough to really make any difference.
Mojang is not going to "update all console editions". Mojang does not work on the console versions- at all, 4J does.
I think what you want to know is will the new console versions become more 'PC like'.
Based on past history, yes and no.
4J has 2 lists of updates. One is stuff they couldcopy from Mojang's PC updates (biomes, horses, etc.). One is stuff in their "exclusive content" lists (quick crafting, tutorial, possible new mobs, the stated coming "improved gameplay", etc.) Not every PC feature can, or should, come to the console, just as not every console feature should come to the PC.
Wanting the two to be exactly like is pretty dumb. We gain nothing. Remember, the PC version is the 'old' version, not necessarily the best. What we should want for the consoles is not only a few of the better features of the PC, but also a few things that do 'old' things better than the PC or do new things the PC can't or hasn't thought of yet! (There's no reason the console's should be concerned with the PC- the PC isn't concerned with the consoles, is it?)
The question is not how much the consoles are 'behind' the PC. The question is how far the PC is behind the consoles. Since they're both going forward, but in different directions, both questions are moot and not worth worrying about.

I'd still say that at this point all the console versions are behind the PC version, not vice versa. The minimal amount of things the consoles have compared to the PC doesn't really warrant saying they're going their own direction. The thing that sets the console versions apart from the PC is sadly their lack of features compared the the PC version, which is leagues ahead of the consoles in content in the game.
The consoles do not yet have anything substantial to set them apart from the PC. They're still just following its updates. Until they begin doing something original or different, they're just going to be watered down PC versions. Even the PS4 and Xbox One versions will be that way.

(You're kidding, right? Bigger, better, faster with lots of room to improve. Of course it will be 'worth it'!!!)
No, if you want that buy it for a PC.
