Minecraft for the 360 has come out today and it comes with a funny bug on the xbox site, for the UK/British market.

Though, with it release comes one but on the xbox site, in the US the price is listed at 1600 microsoft points ($20).
Wait for it.

In the UK it at first was listed at -1 Microsoft point, which then became over 4 billion microsoft points (4294967295 to be exact) which turns out to be £41840139.73 or $57266230.61.

Anyone up to pay that price?

Though this problem has been fixed, I find it amussing. Got to love unsigned intergers.

I actually think I'm gonna buy it. It costs less than regular Minecraft, and it looks like it'll be more enjoyable. Honestly, I wish they had just improved what they already had instead of constantly adding **** when it came to Beta 1.7.

Also,

Ah it has do you recall with what game it was with perhaps, from what I heard from Cat, who has played the demo it's pretty good. Though, it's a bit odd when your use to playing it on a computer to have it on the computer.

Oh Xbox 360 downstairs in the basement... why can't you belong to me? ;n; I don't have money to purchase it anyhow so it would not matter if it were my system to be purchasing things for. Besides, I have it on the PC so I don't realllly need it again. x3 But I look forward to seeing more information on the new release of ol' Minecraft and hearing people's opinions about it. I saw the funny Twitter posts from Notch when referring to that silly glitchy, it was amusing to see.

I've played a few hours with my brother and here's stuff I've noticed:
The worlds are disappointingly small
There are quite a few bugs
The controls and GUI take a while to get used to (As expected), but once you're used to them it's not too bad
The Nether once again serves almost no purpose
Splitscreen multiplayer is extremely fun
Combat is far more difficult on a joypad
I got a full set of diamond armour and tools in a few hours, and enough more to make my brother tools and boots

I quite like it, purely for the split-screen aspect. Nothing beats getting a few mates together in front of a single screen to play a fantastic game.

had it since it came out. chests full of diamond because of duplication glitch,
cause thats how we do

I just bought it a few days/a week ago- Pretty fun~

I got it because I dont own MC on PC (I play my friend's profile at his house). It's alright. Nothing compared to PC but it will be updated eventualy. Next update is gonna be 1.7.3, im pretty sure ( according to the Wiki). Nonetheless it's still playable and I hope they continue to update it.

There seems to be an update that will be going out tommorrow/today/already has come out for the 360, from the looks of it some of the features would be quite nice, I haven't saved up points enough or got enough points to get it myself but some of the new features that will be addes those who already have it probably will appreciate.

There seems a little has been added, like for example a change in sensitivity in game vs when your in the menues. Most of the fixes seems to do with online and multiplayer stuff, not a bad idea good in the long run.

I'd still like the ablity to have custom skins and other small features, not to mention for it to catch up with the PC version. We can hope for that much in the next update.

I'd much rather have it be updated to the PC's curent version rather than having custom skins.
But I really just want Creative mode.

Dupication Glitch gone, Walk through Sugar Cane, X, Y, Z coordinates on Map. That's all I found new.

Hm, I'd like to see them add the new Nether and more of the items and mobs (ocelots kthx). I'm not particularly a fan of the hunger aspect, though.

Yeah, nether has still no other purpose.. So.. Is this gonna be a Minecraft 360 Discussion thread? Or are we gonna have a whole different thread?

I've changed the title to what you see now. This will be the MC: Xbox 360 discussion thread because it seems discussion on it is already happening on this thread.

New update comes out at 2 AM UTC.
Updates the game to 1.7. Pistons, sheers, new textures, etc. Also they're adding a banlist which I have no idea what it does, and custom skins, which seem like a ripoff.

Ohhh your marvin martians O_O. lol i just noticed that. But anyways on topic, oooooh, where'd you find this out?

MC Wiki
Also word of mouth and other gaming sites.

New update on Minecraft 360 as the new update may be out this month, or at least by the end of this month.

I defininitly prefer the PC version, but the X360 version is great when your PC is broken.

I prefer the updatedness of the PC version, but I vastly prefer the simplicity of the crafting interface on the 360 version. I also like playing the game with a controller.

Seems there is updated information on the updates of the 360 version.

They are showing off creative mode on the 360 along with some pics enjoy the update

Status Update on the 360 Version of Minecraft:

I HAVE SO MANY UPDATEABLES.

No, the current version does not allow you to block with a sword.

THey see me mining, they hatting in. Funny bussiness asside.

Seems the Minecraft has become the number one seeling game on the xbox market, passing up the 4 million mark for sales. Which makes it the highest seeling gamin the the markets 7 year history. Give a round of aplause for minecrafts succes.

1.8.2 is on the way and you can get a look at it in the following link which has a link to that.

http://www.examiner.com/article/mine...-million-sales

So the updates been turned into Microsoft cert testing which takes about 7 to 10 days from what I've heard.
Tbh I'm so excited.

They have released a skin pack that adds half life 2 characters to the mix. Wish you could do a custum on through their site or something for you to download but heres teh article with pictures.

Also adds Cowman, Pigman (yes like the one from the nether), Zobie Steve (from what I saw) and Skeleton.

Along with a few others that I don't know and can't identify

Wow I can see how active this thread is.

Down to business. Seems that the xbox 360 version will finally get an update, which is tommorrow Oct 16 2012.

Once its out and you've got a chance to fiddle with it let me know what you liked or didn't like about it.

Lets go miners, lets get mining.

A list of the updates and a link to the original article here:http://www.examiner.com/article/mine...a-release-date

Look a hidden feature.
Glad to see we are having lots of talking here.

Seems that Minecraft has passed up the usage of Modern Warefare 3 on the XBOX 360

Also. More bumps.

Warning in coming update, warning.

This just in, apparently has caused the spirt of giving instead of the spirit of scaring other people as later this month they are going to realease a skin pack with 55 skins and wait for it, any money that is made in the sales will be going to charities.

Wait for it.

The skin pack is going to go on sale for 160 MSP ($2) and all the money goes to charity.

I myself will be getting it, 2 bucks that goes to charity and you get 55 skins.
Companies that donated skins include: 434 studios, Rare among smaller companies that I didn't regonize.

So what's your thoughts, this a good idea? Are you planning on getting this yourself.

The update for Minecraft is out, enjoy the scares and thirls.

Anouther update set to hit out on the xbox 360 tommorrow so enjoy.

Oh no. Cakes are stackable?! Ohhhh crap, here comes some MAJOR trolling of my world.. For those of you that don't know (probably all of you), all my friends come into my world sometimes and when they want to fool around, they place cakes everywhere....... .-.

well if it counts, I built a pokeball, pacman and Iron Man by myself on survival?

Creative is great for artists and blueprint design for actual Minecraft projects. It's also great for musicians. Oh, and item abuse! Can't forget that.

Well what me and friends were planning to do was build a whole civilization inside this huge obsidian wall that we built and then when its finished, we would put it on survival and see how long we'd survive. We might even have currency or something.. Not sure

Halo 4 has been taken down, the beast that it was.

Seem that "THE END" has been put off for the 360 version until after the "Title 7 upadte" bugs.

The Title 8 update will primarly be focused on fixing some of the bugs that Tittle 7 has brought.
