I doubt it will ever get as the good computer version, would you get to use mods or go online?

Because i usually play minecraft on the Pc so that i can use different mods to increase gameplay and to play on servers with my friends. If its just a single player creative/survival i don't think it would be too interesting.

Already have it on the PC so wont be buying it, but it'll be interesting to see how they've handled the conversion and how much this increases it's fanbase.

Will never be as fun as it is on the PC. For a start, there won't be any mods, etc.

Maxeh · 3 May 2012 at 10:29

I will buy it as I'm bored of everything else at the moment

I might get it depending on the price (so I can play with all my friends who own consoles) and what it has to offer in comparison to the PC version. Local 2 player split screen would be awesome for SSP.

I've known about Minecraft since forever, but never played it, even though I think it looks pretty awesome.

I've recently been tempted to grab it and was gonna get the xbox version, but after watching some vids and seeing that all the items you can craft are listed in the build menu already for you it put me off that version and I'll get the PC version I think. Like the idea of having to play with combinations of items to find the stuff to make instead of being given the list just to select it.

I'm looking forward to it and will be buying it again. Owned Minecraft on PC for a long time, spent many hours building and running from creepers, now I'll be able to play with some friends who don't game on PC.

The great thing about minecraft for the xbox is that MS have given the devs more freedom for updates meaning they can come more frequently and quickly as they have dropped the pass time for patch testing. This can only mean a good thing for this type of game

Very seriously considering buying this today, what is wrong with me?

Maxeh · 9 May 2012 at 09:43

I want to be playing this instead of being at Uni

Sp00n · 9 May 2012 at 09:47

Nah... I think it's one of those things that works best on PC, like Counterstrike.

Ive seen some videos and it does look alrite but the crafting is done automatically !

Like if you have two sticks and 3 stone, it will craft the pick axe automatically

sunny007 · 9 May 2012 at 11:03

Double post !

Sp00n · 9 May 2012 at 11:06

An hour and 12mins in-between the double posts? Impressive

I bought it and have been playing it for the past 2 hours, so far very impressed with the controls and crafting. Takes abit of getting used to ill admit.

Feel free to add me on xbox and jump in my world (james82mc)

Sp00n · 9 May 2012 at 13:55

So are the worlds hosted on your console?

wedgie · 9 May 2012 at 14:10

Is it normal to spend the first night holed up somewhere behind a rock?

agnes · 9 May 2012 at 15:20

I'm sorry but what? This was down to be 1200ms... It's now 1600? Mistake right? I know it's 400 more but I am not parting with 1600ms points.

Please someone justify this please. Or else I will just get it on the PC lol.
