What console/platform ISN'T minecraft on?

fucking awesome finally!

Ouya not officially at least [editline]asdasd[/editline] oh and Wii U. Nothing's on wii u.. :(

truly we are entering the next generation

ugh no please no

We won't enter a next generation of games. If we keep dragging shit like this onto it.

Will the people who were guaranteed "every future update" get this for free?

Is it going to be at least a 1/4 finished yet?

[QUOTE=frozensoda;41906330]Will the people who were guaranteed "every future update" get this for free?[/QUOTE]Afaik no. They didn't get the XBLA version, nor did they get the pocket edition.

will it still run at like 30 fps

I wish a Wii U verison was announced.

ah yes, the angry birds strategy

I guess that Sony figured out that pretty much anything with Minecraft slapped on it will sell like hotcakes.

Some of us may not care for it, but it will probably sell a shit load. Probably because I played it really early in its lifespan when the build only part was free to everyone, but I never really got the appeal of Minecraft. I still don't get the appeal and I own StarMade and Guncraft, 2 very similar yet slightly different games.

Another console that I can't get plugins/mods on! Yay verily! I don't enjoy Minecraft on the PC, but isn't it a problem when the replayability is going to be stunted by that lack of extra mods?

Minecraft with no mods, and no dedicated servers. I can't even imagine who would play that.

[QUOTE=Tucan Sam;41906022]What console/platform ISN'T minecraft on?[/QUOTE] Amiga But seriously it's got a long way to beat what I consider the most ported game in existence, Lemmings [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Lemmings_ports[/url] (I'm talking official ports here people)

wait it says that in the article nevermind

[QUOTE=JustGman;41906892]Notch just confirmed Vita Minecraft, Also PS3. [url]https://twitter.com/notch[/url][/QUOTE] I could see Minecraft as a Vita game. Just thinking about like a car trip or something, a game like Minecraft can kill a lot of time if you can get into it.

[QUOTE=Neddy;41906309]We won't enter a next generation of games. If we keep dragging shit like this onto it.[/QUOTE] I know, right? I was hoping this generation of consoles will finally be Wiimote/Kinect movement tracking ONLY but they just had to go and ruin it by dragging shitty old controllers into it.

I like how a lot of people don't seem to realize that Minecraft has been on XBLA for a while now and made very good sales. Partnering with Sony and porting to their consoles is a pretty logical step. The XBLA port was very good, too, so I'm interested to see how the PS3, PS4 and especially Vita ports turn out. I may actually look into the Vita port if they do it right.

Cool for the Minecraft-Fans I guess.

I can't play Minecraft without any mods installed. Its boring the shit out of me. Unless (like Unreal Tournament 3) the game will have mod support which i heavily doubt. [editline]20th August 2013[/editline] Only thing i would enjoy about it was split screen, but meh..

[QUOTE=Handsome Matt;41907104]Another platform that will constantly be versions behind the PC one. Just look how good the 360 one is, why don't they just create a common code base in C++ that will compile across all their platforms. They can easily afford to bring someone / a lot of people in to do it.[/QUOTE] Also fun, paying for skin packs on the 360 version. If they took their time they could [I][B]easily [/B][/I]build in some kind of skin-maker in-game. Now i guess they either didn't go for that plan because for either people could make copyrighted stuff which MS is pretty pissy about or they just found it a good way to generate more money.
