Hello all, this is just a little idea I came up with for everyone to be able to complain about things they just hate to the core about MC360, for example, I hate the fact that I cannot build an amazing TNT cannon because the "limit" of TNT being set of at once is 20 or that the mob spawners can only spawn 40 mobs and stops so there is no way to efficiently farm EXP fast for enchanting. Lets talk a little about these "limits".

The follow are the minimum/recommended requirements for Minecraft PC:

Minimum Requirements:
CPU : Intel P4/NetBurst Architecture or its AMD Equivalent (AMD K7)
RAM : 2GB
GPU : Intel GMA 950 or AMD Equivalent
HDD : At least 90MB for Game Core and Sound Files
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 or up is required to be able to run the game.

Recommended Requirements:
CPU : Intel Pentium D or AMD Athlon 64 (K8) 2.6 GHz
RAM : 4GB
GPU : GeForce 6xxx or ATI Radeon 9xxx and up with OpenGL 2 Support (Excluding Integrated Chipsets)
HDD : 150MB

Software Requirements:
Minecraft Release 1.2.5 or newer. Older versions will need to be updated to current versions
Java (Java SE 6 Update 32 or Java SE 7 Update 4 or newer is preferred)


As for the Xbox 360 we have:

CPU 3.2 GHz PowerPC Tri-Core Xenon
Memory 512 MB of GDDR3 RAM clocked at 700 MHz
Graphics 500 MHz ATI Xenos


So what really is stopping MC360 from having larger worlds, or being able to stop 100, 200 or even 500 mobs at once? Would it crash and burn? I don't think so... What is the problem with activating 50 or even 500 TNT? Okay maybe 500 is a little to much, OR IS IT?!

So this brings me to my next topic, what really "limits" MC360 from running larger worlds or having some sort of "commands" system as in PC? There are just so many things about MC360 that needs to be dealt with for it to evolve into something completely different from all other Xbox 360 games or XBLA games. I am officially branding this thread as the offical rant section for MC360, all issues, complaints or features you want to see, PLEASE feel free to post them and let us all know! Bugs bother you? POST IT! Game glitching out? POST IT! Something you want that you can't have or do?! POST IT!!!

Well this is all I have to say for now, I really want to see what you all have to say, SO POST IT!!!

As you can see, the minimum requirements for the PC is 2GBs of RAM. The xbox has 512MBs. Therefore, you should have expected a lot of limits on what you can do since there is very little to work with. The intel GMA 950 has a max clock speed of 400MHz just a bit slower than the xboxs 500MHz.

I don't see how the RAM would affect anything? On PC the worlds are unlimited, constantly generating, mobs from mob spawners can go over 1,000 spawns and lag the game to about 5-10 FPS, and TNT can be lit around 2,000 times (and exploding has been shown in test on YouTube) so why are the limits so low? I am sure the Xbox can handle 100 or even 250 mobs as well as 100+ TNT.

If you can play this game, or any game, without complaining, then you aren't playing the game to its fullest.
