And apparently it´s a kinect game lol.

Also,technicaly for SW purposes isn´t really a stolen exclusive since MC isn´t even in the spreadsheet.

I think people were too busy laughing at the other stuff to notice, but I'm actually curious how it will work. Maybe it will have some competition from the lesser known FortressCraft, lol.

Well it's technically still in beta form isn't it? So not really released properly. Anyway I hope kinect is optional for this.

I don't get the obsession over this game. I played it on PC... won't be playing it on Xbox or ever again.

Of course it'll be a success... its Minecraft. Will I care? No. Because Notch is nothing but a sellout and I hate the fact I ever supported him in Alpha stage. He can't FOCUS and just finish the "game." For some reason, he needs to constantly turn it into something new every couple weeks, and port it to ridiculous platforms where it really makes no sense of being.

I was pretty excited when I saw the announcement, then I saw Kinect. Hopefully it's optional. I'm interested to see how it will turn out.

I'm not sure, get a wider audience I guess. Makes more sense than them making it for the iPhone which they announced earlier in the year.

If it was a demanding game specs wise I suppose I would understand,but anyone can run Minecraft on the PC,and at the same time benefit from a number of custom adventure maps and mods,not to mention that there´s a free version,wich I doubt will be on the 360.

Yeah, any computer with a dual core processor, more than 2GB of RAM and a proper, DirectX 9.0c+ enabled GPU. It'll run on almost anything... but is it playable? Not in the least. Notch should have been spending the millions of dollars he made on bugfixing and polishing off the engine... but it seems like that is the last on his list of priorities for the game. :?

Well, I like minecraft, but I have to say it'd sort of suck without Mods. Not just hating on consoles, because I generally prefer them over PC, but I just don't see the fun of the game if you have to find every resource from the ground and there aren't any cool airplane mods, or portal gun mods, or whatever else it is people come up with.

Minecraft being announced for Xbox 360 is probably the biggest surprise so far this E3....which is really sad. I remember when E3's were all about surprises and were fun.

You're actually right. The comments are f'ing hilarious.

Personally I never understood the appeal of Minecraft though.

Who would honestly play this on the 360 over the PC? Computers from the stoneage can run the game, and half of it's longevity comes from mods and custom maps.

Minecraft is a rather popular game with good reason, and I can imagine it having a decent audience for the 360.

And Notch isn't porting the game, it's being outsourced to another studio so this won't affect the progress of the PC version of Minecraft.

Kinect for XBOX 360 - you are the Tool.

Ah man that was bad. My humour has been damaged by the MS conference. I must have been laughing for over an hour feeling lightheaded and everything.
