For those who are getting the Minecraft Xbox One Edition.. I heard/read that it was going to be delayed!? I hope its not true, but I did read that only the PS Vita was delayed until September..
No release date other than "August" was given. 4J hasn't said anything other than they're fixing bugs. Mojang hasn't said anything to my knowledge and neither has Microsoft.
EDIT: So I looked this up and apparently everyone is jumping to conclusions. A TV ad has been going around showing the PSVita version. At the end of the ad it says "Out in September". This ad says nothing of the Xbox One or PS4 versions but people are just assuming that since that version might be coming out in September that the other will also.
Like 4J themselves said a while ago, always assume rumors are false. If ti doesn't come out in August, then oh well. It'll just put a bit of a dent in their sales as they have almost nothing to compete with in August except Diablo III Ultimate Evil Edition. September on the other hand has Destiny on the 9th and Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor on the 30th. Two highly anticipated games.
It would be smarter to release the console versions in August some time before those two huge games come out.
ow, those who think 4J/Mojang are the worst companies(games) in relationship with the public raises his hand. Joke. I do not need anyone to agree with me. They are too poor at relationship / communication ..
That's purely a matter of opinion. 4J has done, at the least, an adequate job of making announcements. That they haven't done enough to please you is irrelevant.
Consider this. In the 2 years that the 360 Edition has been out 4J has never failed to keep us updated on their development plans or the release window of the next update. They've only stopped short of giving us actual dates, which is normal for the gaming industry.
Microsoft just emailed severel news websites that the XB1 Edition will release on August 4...but there was no word from mojang or 4j so no one know if thats true or a fault by MS
You happen to know this how? Do you know the brother's uncle's cousin's twice removed sister's, brother-in-law of someone that works at one of these news websites? Or are you actually one of the people who works at one of these websites and you're just hanging out on the forums spreading the info?
Come on people. You can't make wild claims without proof.
I just wanted to let everyone know i was able to preorder the upgrade for minecraft on the xb1 at gamestop today for $5 and they have a release date of 08/12/2014
no you didnt. the five dollar verson of minecraft Xbox one will be a download copy only. The disk verson is full price, and gamestop doesnt sell downloads. some common sense of any level would have led to that conclusion.

It's more likely you put a $5 deposit down for the disc version of the game... and will be charged full price.

Um, this page on Gamestops website begs to differ. Gamestop does sell downloadable things and you can pre-order the $5 upgrade from the 360 to Xbox One.

I just hope their going to put an unlimited land on xbox like pc or pocket edition and I hope they are going to put cheats and mob spawners in creative... I also hope theyput mods in minecraft xbox 360 edition
they won't do any of that infinite land will not be coming do to console limitions mods are against the terms and service of Microsoft and sony. last the spawners I don't think that's ganna happen
*Sigh* MODS CAN COME TO THE XBOX ! They wouldn't be considered mods then , however .
The spawners could possible .
And I'm not sure , but I think the Policy for Xbone/PSP4 are different than Xbox 360 for modifying the game sources/file .
Da hell is wrong with people asking for infinite worlds (I know why) , people wouldn't care if they did have infinite worlds but only used 10000x10000 , you're only ever going to use around 5% of that infinite world . People would care if they had 100Kx100K worlds , they'd still complain about not being infinite .These people are just ... uuuuuggh...
To the OP , I think Xb one is gonna by delayed until September , unless 4J ninja us with a surprise .
I think many people would want infinite worlds because some people usually play with their friends, which takes up a lot of space.

The policies on the Xbox One are no different. IT is still against the terms of use to modify, change, etc, etc, any of the systems files or any game files. It's still the same as it was on the 360.
People want mods as they are on the PC. People want to be able to make things and give them to others like modders do on the PC. That will never happen. What might happen eventually is 4J making DLC that resembles popular mods on the PC.
playing with multipul friends doesnt take up that much space. at least not the kind of space that would warrent "infinite" worlds. This topic is so over discussed. as has been mentioned before, infinite worlds do have an end, you will likely not use the full extent of the world anyway, ive never seen a MCXB360 world that was fully used. limits on games keep the game running smoother.

If I had to guess than I would say 10th of September, I am accounting for it to be in Cert testing with Microsoft for a week and a half however it could take more/less time.
What are your thoughts?

That page lists the release date as 12/31/14. Which means they don't know either.
