Minecraft XBLA considering mods, diverging from PC after 1.8.2
"This isn't something that will be coming with 1.8.2, but will be further down the line," 4J Chief Technology Officer Paddy Burns tells Hookshot Inc. "The Xbox 360 won't be able to have the mod system that gives such a variety of community additions to the game on PC, but we're looking at the elements of these that people seem to be enjoying the most, and deciding how we could tailor those elements into something for Xbox."
Xbox 360 players are based in a living room, using a controller, and this fundamentally alters the way they interact with the game, Burns says. "We need to ensure that whatever we do is right for that audience."
Minecraft XBLA may diverge from its PC parentage in big ways in the future. "We're going to be discussing with Mojang where we go after version 1.2.3," Burns says. "Some ideas of taking the game in a different direction from PC having been raised already."

Wake This would be cool, it would be cooler if they some how made it to where the players could actually put in their own mods. But they're most likely going to be DLC and we're going to have to buy them.
I'm sure it would be easier too, but 4J said a while back that there is some issues with Microsoft that wouldn't allow that, which is disappointing.

Qold mods would be cool but microsoft would disagreeThey wouldn't be "mods", they would be downloadable content. Even if they did call it a mod, microsoft wouldn't care because it doesn't ruin the game or tamper with the console
