[QUOTE="vashkey"][QUOTE="getyeryayasout"]I'd like to point out that Minecraft for the 360 will be Kinect enabled.getyeryayasout
But not Kinect required... so

If someone has Kinect they might prefer playing Minecraft on 360, that's all I mean.

but but there is already a mod for Kinect control on Minecraft PC. Way before it even hit the 360 =p

The standard version of Minecraft has quite a bit to offer. Any version of it will be enjoyable.

#1 possible Kinect implementation. #2, gaming on my PC is a relative pain in the ass compared to the easy-breezy nature of the Xbox. It's not like PC is going to be the graphics king this time.

You need the right mods. Most of them butcher the game.

I said decently, my brother can run it but if he does some searching, he quickly runs into framerate problems, even on low settings. So while most computers can run it, a lot of people might not be able to play it very well.

How can a PC have issues running Minecraft? The game is so... easy to run. I guess the CPU can get a little stressed in parts but still. Believe it or not, not everyone is given a 360 for free. At some point, I'm sure your brother had to buy that 360 (or it was given as a gift, either way, I'm sure someone paid money for it). Same applies to your logic. Put up some money and buy a $200 netbook and get the better gaming experience.

I'm assuming you mean notebook, netbooks are terrible for almost any gaming that isn't some free flash game on the internet.

And you'd be surprised how easily it is to make Minecraft slow to a crawl, or not even work. Using my brother as an example again, or my friends laptop. For my brother the size of one of his worlds is about 13 mb, he can't even use it because it doesn't work. Works on my laptop (sort of) though. And my friend, even on low settings it stutters.

Nope, I mean netbook. You can also use them to play games through Onlive and it actually works rather well. I don't have one, but my brother, best friend, and one of my roommates have netbooks for school and such and they all use Onlive.

A netbook can run OnLive, sure. My main PC usage is through the netbook I am using now. I've tried to run Minecraft with low settings, and it's hardly playable. OnLive works just fine. But Minecraft simply doesn't that "Windows 95" statement simply wasn't true, shows how ignorant the SW community can really be.

I know it's hard to believe, but some people just don't have a computer capable of running Minecraft decently. And I play Minecraft without mods and it's still a perfectly good game.EliteM0nk3y

My friend has a $300 Acer laptop from a couple years back that can play Minecraft just fine.

People still have computers that are barely capable of running Windows 95?

Hmmm maybe they use Vista.

Looking at those lists,

Where the **** is better than wolves?

Those are awesome. Will download when I get back to the states. Do they work on custom servers? I remember having trouble getting the cool mods to work in multiplayer last time I played.

Kickinurass

Some mods work on MP others dont, it will say on the site if they are SMP compatible or not. There are some servers are dedicated to certain mods. Like a industrialcraft server.

I will say I am pretty sure the Yogbox is multiplayer compatible.

Gah, I will remember minecraft forever, I still get nostalgia from thinking of my noob days. Maybe nostalgia is a slightly strong word considering I only started play last october :o.

But on topic, different audience, some people just don't like gaming on a pc.
