Many different things affect wheat growth rates. The only actual requirement is a tilled dirt block and a light source 9 or above.
Wheat growth rates are affected by neighboring blocks and hydration. The wiki page http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Wheat_Farming
has all the important information as well as some interesting charts.
If all that info doesn't make sense a good rule of thumb for fast growing crops is to have a water source within 4 blocks horizontally and on the same level or one block above; then have alternating rows of farmland and planted wheat.
The 360 updates will end sometime, just like the Live servers will stop supporting the 360. There will probably be a period of several years overlap with the two consoles. Just look at Windows XP. Microsoft is finally pulling the update servers on that in April 2014. They stopped selling it in 2009.
A lot of the issues that arise from being backwards compatible is in the graphic engines that games use. A lot of game engines send instructions directly to the GPU. When those GPUs and graphic engines get updated with newer gen hardware and software versions they often have to hardware emulate instructions for commands recieved from older games . It should not be as big of a problem as it was when they went from the XBox to the XBox360 because the architecture isn't going to be so very different.
If after the next patch animals don't respawn dose that mean it would be possible to kill all the animals in your world and if it was possible dose that mean the only way to get more animals is by breeding them????
This is an assumption (because it could be very different when the next update comes) but, animals should respawn rarely, just like they did before the 1.8.2 bug fix.
The problem is map size is not infinite like the PC version. In the PC version you could just explore further until you find an area with the new biomes or changes. You cannot do that on MC360 due to the limited map sizes. Changing worlds that are already fully explored would require rewritting the world information in the save files. Start doing that for every user and the problems that causes becomes unmanagable rather quickly.
The only workaround that has any chance of success is to leave large areas of your map unexplored and pray you get the new biome or an updated stronghold/village in that area. Your chances aren't really good though.
You don't have to make a new map; but they will be changing strongholds and villages a little with the next update, adding new biomes, as well as adding some new structures to the nether. You won't get those changes unless you start a new map.
If you give me your wife's gamertag I'll use it too. Otherwise, I'm not sure what you want us to do. Of course I'll need the password and any relevant credit card info.

Wrong game version forum and a thread necro. You're on a roll.

This subject comes up every once in awhile. I assure everyone that it is broken.
