There is two bugs I've noticed. One is the usual extreme lagging when you ride a horse and the other is the now extremely annoying disappearing horses. (The only way to keep your horse, donkey, or mule from disappearing is naming it, which is really difficult in survival, since you have to get a name tag, saddle, and anvil before you can get a horse to ride and keep.
I decided not to accept this update until after they come out with a bug fix. The first thing reported that turned me off were the despawning horses, although I think reports are suggesting that at least some of the earlier bug reports were due to people misunderstanding how the new mobs and items are supposed to work in the version number of the game the Xbox Edition is currently at (which is not the most recent PC version). I also think that many people don't understand how biome shift may have affected how some biome-specific mobs (like horses) will spawn or not spawn in worlds created with previous versions).Knowing that significant changes were made to redstone (necessitating updating/rebuilding many redstone devices - even without the bugs with pistons), the prospect of playing around with horses that might not even stick around just wasn't enough to prompt me to accept this update. I can wait a bit for the bug fix update to come out.
Lag is an issue that appears to get worse after a feature-adding update... and then gets adjusted (made a little better) when they do the bug fix update. Horses causing a lot of lag was anticipated by many old timers here months ago. Hopefully, 4J still have a few adjustments they can made to make it better. The bottomline, however, is that the Xbox 360 is outdated and already running a game that actually requires minimum specs in excess of what the Xbox 360 has available (e.g. the PC minimum specs are something like 2 GB RAM; whereas the Xbox 360 only has 512 MB).
Speaking of updates, they should do the things below.
1. I know the PC has tons more animals, some created by the company, but some are made by just everyday people. We console players would like a little more of that action by adding those animals in, you wouldn't even have to put them all in at once, probably even just 1-4 at a time. also, like Terraria you could have exclusive creatures for just the consoles. (Terraria's console exclusives are things like the orca and the boss, Ocram.) Just a little bit of added creatures will give console players a sense of happiness, knowing they have lots of creatures to interact with.
2. I have also heard of PC players being able to "transform" fully into the creatures that are in the game. It would be the dream of many people to transform in the console edition. The way you could have it would be the following.
Console players would buy it in the online store and enter the game after downloading it
Before they enter the chosen world they would go to the options menu and check the the transform ability
They would load the world, hit the select button, and choose their name
A list of all creatures that are in the game would show, and they would check the creature they desire, and upon exiting they would not see the player, but the creature they checked. They could now continue the journey as a creature having abilities that the creature has ( Dog: can walk through 1 block tall spaces; Cave spiders: can poison using fists only and climb walls)
3. I think the console people should have something unique. Here is a list of cool objects to choose from that will make some people happy.
Horse carts and wagons that have chests in them
Bookbags that extend your inventory space that are placed in the chestplate slot
Pet Eagles and Owls tamed with fish to help like dogs do
Night vision goggles that use two eye of ender, and three string, then placed in the headgear slot
Cages that allow you to put small creatures like scorpions, rabbits, and birds in them as pets
New and weird creatures like pheonixes(flies and carries 9 slot chests), obsidians (slimes textured like obsidian and harder than regular and magma slimes), gryphons, miniaturedragons, foxes, pegusus, unicorns, several fish types, jellyfish, sharks, whales( can only spawn if a large amount of sea is present in a world), dinosaurs(some can be ridden, like a pterodactyl, some can't, like a trex) turtles, mice, rabbits, bears, deer, camels, alligators, big cats, hyenas, African wild dogs, snakes, scorpions, elephants, giraffes, and so on
Bolded animals are rideable
Lastly, hundreds of of people would like to customize their skin. They would use the D-pad to select a color, use the left analog stick to spin the model and the right analog stick to move a cursor and press X/A to give a pixel the color chosen. Pressing []/X over an arm or leg would make an arm or leg disappear so you could get the insides of the leg or the side of the chest.
I'm confused... are you conducting an opinion poll? Making suggestions about new content you would like to see added to the consoles? Or are you reporting bugs that you have found?
The First should be in the Discussions Forum.
The Second should be in the Suggestions Forum. (Either en mass in the Small suggestions thread if you don't care about it being open to discussion, or individual threads on each separate idea if you do want more in depth discussion).
Bugs should be reported in the Official Bug Tracking Thread in this forum.

#2 is actually a mod on the pc edition, not vanilla. I have heard of it myself, but not for a default minecraft. Just figured I would point that out...
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
My First World, always getting back to is a pleasure I enjoy with each new update that brings in more things to add in.
I play MINECRAFT. And TERRARIA. MESSAGE me if you want to play Terraria.
