I hear that in the PC version, they're gonna make it so you can trade with the villagers

[Niall]

Right I am getting the for my laptop omg. Fuck paying though. -torrents-

[Scarlett.]

Tbh, I'd say its worth actually paying for if you have the money, you pay for it once and the game is continually upgraded lol

Thing's that that been added since I bought
- 'The End' dimension
- Ender Dragon boss (in The End)
- Strongholds
- Abandoned mineshafts
- Jungle biomes
- Enderman enemies
- Item Enchanting
- Potion crafting
- Ocelot cats (and the ability to tame them)
- Villages
- Villagers/Testificates
- Iron Golems (to protect the villagers)
- Zombie seiges on villages
- Animal/villager cubs and children

The main point of focus of the developers at the moment seems to be the villagers
(Iron golem with villager children)

[Niall]

In the Xbox one, me and my friend were on there for like 4 hours and we made an enormous underground mansion. It was amazing omfg.

[Scarlett.]

Wait...its out on Xbox already? Or was it a rip off one? xD

[Niall]

The rip off one. Its called Total miner but its almost exactly the same as mine craft bar a few minor differences. Its fantastic for only 250 points though!

[Scarlett.]

I see I'm gonna wait til the proper one comes out xD

[Niall]

I'll probably buy it straight away when its released.

[Scarlett.]

I think they plan on adding updates after purchase on the Xbox too

[Scarlett.]

Me and my brother have been playing the Tekkit pack

We‘re pleased to announce that thanks to your support, Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition, the console adaptation of the hugely popular PC game developed by Mojang, has broken all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records, selling more than any other title in the first 24 hours on Xbox LIVE Arcade.

Of course, this follows on the heels of Trials Evolution, the previous record holder, which also broke revenue sales numbers in its first day of sales as part of Arcade Next.

Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition was developed by 4J Studios in conjunction with Mojang and Microsoft Studios, and introduces new gameplay experiences such as a unique crafting menu, game tutorials, and split-screen multiplayer on HD screens, as well as online multiplayer for up to eight players over Xbox LIVE.

Creator Notch also said the game became profitable within an hour of releasing

The grass is always greener in Minecraft, and that applies to game updates too. 4J Studios has announced that it's targeting Minecraft PC version 1.7.3 for the very first Minecraft Xbox 360 update... and we're already staring at our existing 1.6.6 builds in abject desolation, pining for the sweet hydraulic "thunk" of 1.7.3-era technology.

New to 1.7.3 are pistons, which shove other blocks around, and shears, which allow you to 'mine' foliage. There's also a lot more clay to find, making those grand brickwork building projects a tad more achievable. Here's a partial list of tweaks and additions, care of LMG.

- Added pistons.

- Fixed clay generation.

- Flint and Steel or redstone is now required to trigger TNT.

- Fences can be stacked.

- Added Shears.

- Redstone wire now will connect to a repeater.

- Shears can be used to pick up leaf blocks.

- Shears can be used to shear sheep without hurting them

- Sheep no longer drop wool from being punched, only from being killed when they are unsheared.

- New textures for Cobblestone and Brick blocks.

- Silverfish skin was added (for Beta 1.8).

No word from 4J as to when all this will arrive. Speaking to OXM in March, the port developer's Roger Carpenter discussed the difficulties of porting some of the PC updates across. "Some of the updates are massive - they significantly change how the game works. They're epic, potentially, a complete redesign of what we've got already."
