Girl_xxx Can't wait till this catches up the to PC version


I don't think it ever will. I don't think they will add enchangment tables,and a Couple of things. They will be similar but not the same. They used the old world generation method for the xbox, and that would be hard to change.


There will be enchantment tables we just have to wait.

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!

Smurfs I thought Herobrine wasn't real?


He isn't Notch did it as a joke back in like 1.6. He said he was removed but he was never there.

yes but alot of friends do not have it for the computer. also you can chat on the xbox and not have to use some shitty program. and there is no lag. its better.


i'm not denying that computer gaming is more all around advanced, but many people cannot afford a good computer(i'm 15 and rather not pay 1k to play games) and also many people have most of their friends playing on a console and you will want to play with your friends.also some people dont like using keyboards and mice,i for one just dont like it.and as blackout said,the lag is worse on computer.my internet sucks (3mbps) but xbox has no problem, while my brother lags like crazy on his computer.
