Telenow Seems like a nice update. But I still think Minecraft should be on pc only.


No, It was a good idea to put Minecraft onto the xbox because not everyone has a fast computer to run Minecraft on.


It made them millions upon millions of dollars to put it on xbox.

Bladewuzhere I never noticed a Herobrine at all? Even though it says they removed them, I am almost positive they were never in the game to start with. Any thoughts?


He isn't real no matter what version of the game.

Check out his own page on the Minecraft wiki.

Zerkos I find it amusing all you console **** getting an update the PC version got ages ago, PC will always be the dominant one, with an unlimited amount of content due to them amazing mods, and a whole new look for the game with texture packs.
Not to mention the limitless amount of skins or create your own.


I agree the Pc version is better but i still like the xbox version as it is easier to play and talk with friends, most of the people i know have both versions and they all think that the xbox version is still good.


The PC version isn't better its different. I like the xbox version more because I can run it,at a good FPS, I cant on the PC. Mojang will eventually make them almost the exact same .

P.S> we need creative!


Look around, most people are admitting the fact that PC version is more advanced and most likely always will be. Xbox version can only go so far.


Whatever, it may be more advanced but you cant just call us names because were getting excited over an update. I know your so top notch and humble and xbox players are all scum in your mind but some of us have never even played or heard of minecraft.

The reason PC is better is becuase it's been out since like 2009 and the xbox version has only been out for 2 months now, just wait and xbox will be the same as PC and all you PC lovers can shut up about saying xbox minecraft sucks.


They are actually going to EVENTUALLY ATTEMPT to combine xbox and pc, guess what? That means that the games will eventually become the SAME. PC may still have mods, but so do all other PC games. Quit fighting, PC won't be supierior forever.


Who cares if PC or Xbox is better, they are two completely different things and everyone can and should enjoy both of them...
