Yay!

I can't play though because my Xbox has been overheating really quickly (and smelling somewhat like smoke) lately because it's directly on the carpet, so until I can find something to put it on, no Xbox for me.

Anybody else hear the news? Creative Mode is coming to the Xbox version. This will probably make me end up getting Minecraft finally.

well it's already been known for sometime that it's coming. just no real date or anything yet.

they're actually going to put in a lot of stuff the next update. including villages, sprinting, hunger, new mobs, enchanting(?) and more.

seriously though. how are they gonna fit all this in a 1000x1000 map :s

Magic!

And this'll probably bring me back to playing 360 Minecraft.

Hey, sorry to bump this, but I just (FINALLY) finished building my adventure map, and I was wondering if any of you guys were interested in testing it before it goes public?
