The 360 stole an exclusive from the PC! :o
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Well it's technically still in beta form isn't it? So not really released properly. Anyway I hope kinect is optional for this.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.

[QUOTE="Arach666"]Well it's technically still in beta form isn't it? So not really released properly. Anyway I hope kinect is optional for this. Yeah,it´s still a beta. I wonder what´s the point of releasing it on the 360 though,kinect aside.And apparently it´s a kinect game lol.

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.
has to be terrible news to the fortresscraft guy. dkdk999Hate to say it, but he may have had it coming. He claims to have been working on it before MineCraft was around... but idk if that's true.

Makes more sense than them making it for the iPhone which they announced earlier in the year.And apparently it´s a kinect game lol.

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, sure any computer can run it, including mine >_>soulitaneYeah, 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. :?
Pre-historic systems don´t count. :PArach666Hey it's only 6 years old :evil:

The 360 stole an exclusive from the PC! :o
Cept its already available for psp phone with android whatever its called.And apparently it´s a kinect game lol.

Its not a stolen exclusive because PSPhone got it second :D
And 360 already stole the game and money from minecraft. What was it, FortressCraft?
The whole "Stolen Exclusive" thing is mainly for attention, so don't take it too seriously guys... :P
And speaking of Minecraft,in case anyone has missed this,now is the time to watch it. :P
Arach666
lol, there's so many awesome Minecraft music videos :P
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.
Just went and read the youtube comments for the minecraft 360 announcements, PC gamers are be seriously bitter about exclusives, loads of lulz to be found there.

You're actually right. The comments are f'ing hilarious.
Personally I never understood the appeal of Minecraft though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEK12osJE_0&feature=player_embeddedI doubt they will leave out texture packs. Mod are a different story however, then again, who the hell plays minecraft for the mods?enjoy the game without Mods or texture packs.
theshadowhunter
Because custom maps cant be added to the 360 versionWho 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.

Seek for their approval, put them into a ingame list. Its hardly impossible.enjoy the game without Mods or texture packs.

You kidding me? The only reason why I keep replaying it is to mess with new mods.
Pfft.[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"]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.SandvichmanIts a 2-3 man team cmon. Besides he keep putting out updates reguraly, not to mention that it already has a release date.
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.
Let's see... I can either wave my around like a tool, or I can just play the game on my laptop and actually have fun. It's not like Minecraft has unwieldy system requirements.Timstuff
IF I have the option to play with a controller and its the FULL version of Minecraft then it will be a success!
