It may not be the next update (that's scheduled to be an Xbox approximation of Beta version 1.7.3, which adds pistons), but at some point the XBLA version of Minecraft will be brought up to parity with PC version 1.8, also known as the Adventure Update."There are no big architecture changes with the move to 1.7.3, so it's been quite straightforward. The move to 1.8.2 is much more challenging," 4J Studios co-founder Paddy Burns told OXM. "We are working with Daniel Kaplan at Mojang to define what is going in to the Xbox version, but the aim is to include as many of the PC features that make sense on the Xbox as possible. The game isn't Minecraft on the Xbox, it is Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition, so it isn't really a direct port of the PC game."When the Adventure Update went live last on PCs September, it introduced the Endermen, several new kinds of building materials, a new mode specifically designed for free-form creation (dubbed "Creative mode"), as well as more minor changes to combat mechanics and the introduction of a food system.

If they only do this 'adventure update' and nothing else to the XBLA edition, i'll be very happy.

Either way, people are gonna keep requesting features from the PC version, so all in all, it is almost a port

It's the CORRECT way to port a game though. Godamnit!

I'd love to see the xbox edition to be close as possible to the PC version. People on xbox are missing lots of features that the PC version has.

But i would really love to have as much features as people say the pc has.

I'm loving Minecraft on XBLA at the moment. But I would love for them to hurry up and get an update out. I can't wait until they add pistons. I used them for a lot more than I thought I did...

Also can't wait for the Adventure Update. That will be Awesome!

I want Creative Mode now. I'm sick of mining.
