That is a third party program for the PC that allows you to map any console controller's layout to keys on the computer. If I wanted to play MC with an xbox controller, all I'd have to do is plug in a wired xbox controller and config it for myself. Bam.
2. Every PC game ported to the console is forced into an optimization so the xbox can run it at a decent FPS. Aka meaning they had to downgrade it's looks to even work on xbox. I mean, people here are running on fancy and infinite worlds without issue, while you silly fillies on xbox are playing with a world roughly around 1000x1000 blocks (enough to fit 1 regular map), and that textures get 'blended' the farther you get away from an area to lessen the load on rendering.
3. Decent online service? You do realize PC users only have to pay for internet connection, and thats it. If your going xbox, you have to both pay internet and a monthly fee for membership.
4. I'd like to see your xbox get custom DLC for free, by the community (and even sometimes) the developers. Almost every DLC that adds actual content to a game on consoles require cash, even if the release on PC was free. I mean, for one, PC users can customize their own skin for FREEEEEE, while your stuck buying skin packs that people complained about sucking,
I was dead silent until night, busy building a sand wall around the entire shoreline, then it became dark..
"WHERE ARE ALL THESE ****ING MONSTERS COMING FROM" as creepers proceeded to blow my sand wall to **** and skeletons came through and repeatly spawn camped me for the next 2 minutes. Followed by a ragequit where I would never come back to minecraft for 4 months. (not kidding)

also vist the planet minecraft version and spread the hate
I think it would be better if they just implanted a way to merge your xbox account with your PC account (if you have one), so if you've already bought it on PC, you could just use the skin your PC account uses. I wouldn't mind if they charged something like 80 msp to change your skin on xbox if your using your PC's skin.
This is just a thread that I will update showing what I find to be the most efficient methods when playing MC in general.
Wheat Farms
Right now, in the Xbox version, the most common way to obtain food that seems easiest, would be wheat farms. Most people tend to do it like this:
Even though this does work, it isn't as efficient as it could be with a few tweaks.
This method here works best and uses the one water block to it's max advantage.
This works because tiled soil only needs a water block within 4 blocks of it to be watered. So building a 9x9 plot with a source water in the middle allows for the most growth.
Other, more automatic ways for farms is known with pistons, which were just added not long ago, allow the push of a button to harvest all your crops and bring them to you. The best way to get more crops out of one harvester is to do what I call "stacking" the farm, as seen here.
The best thing about this, is as long as a player is within the loaded chunk along with the pistons, this could go from bedrock to sea level and still work (all though the amount of wheat+seeds might cause a bit of lag). The design for each layer of crops is 4x6, allowing the water to reach the soil, and the water to reach the next layer. My design uses only 8 regular pistons, 8 sand, 8 redstone torches, and 8 repeaters. The amount of redstone required for is dependent on how large you wish for it to be. The design for the pistons are here:
As with this, you might have to walk on the soil to grab any few bits that might go off the side (can be fixed by making the sides full blocks instead of slabs), and crouching can be slow and tedious. So what do you do?
Put a fence under it! With the current fence collision in beta, this allows you to walk along the tilled soil as much as your hearts content, without ever worrying about untilling the soiling. Very useful if you don't like retilling often, or crouching when collecting your harvest.
Pistons (and redstone)
Yeah, those things that push and pull blocks when powered by that redstone stuff. Pretty cool, isn't afraid of anything (expect obsidian, the fatty). Just a few designs for things like doors and switches (bud switches ect.)
First off, the normal 2x2 piston door:
These regular 4 stone (or wood)pressureplates, 2 redstone torches, 4 sticky pistons, 4 blocks of your choice for the door, and 24 redstone dust.
How to build a piston door:

That's all for now. Will update with more information later today. The sandman is calling me right now to slumber. Expect things like redstone circuits and how to build a proper mob grinder.
"Farlanders" seems about right for these guys though. Think about it, they are odd creatures not of this land, such as Farlands is not of this "world" we call Minecraft. You think that a backstory could be that they came from the Farlands? I mean, considering how long it takes for you to get to farlands, it would make sense you only now start to see them appearing.
