MINECRAFT XBOX EDITION
Minecraft: XBOX 360 came out July of 2012, but now it is EXPLODING with people running everywhere POSSIBLE to get it. Anyway, the newest update just came out and it includes superflat worlds, naturally spawning villages, villagers, emeralds, creative mode, hunger bar, enchanting, brewing, (including cauldrons and all the ingredients gotten from killing mobs)
endermen, the enderdragon, the End, strongholds, stone bricks, chests in the villages, silverfish, melons, and other things that I can't remember.It's a REALLY big update.
In my opinion, the Endermen are weak. I made an Enderman mad and killed it with a STICK. With a STICK. Mojang should really fix that.
One thing that is really bothering people is that the dispenser glitch was fixed in a recent patch.
It includes two people (it couldn't be done with only one). One person puts the item they want to duplicate in the dispenser. The other takes it out and, using the X button, puts UNLIMITED item in their inventory. I never got to try it because when I heard about it, there seemed to be a lack of redstone and diamonds in the world, even the tutorial world which I knew by heart.
It wasn't fun.

NEW SKINPACK
There is also a new downlodable skinpack on the XBOX 360. This is just a little part of it.
There is a cow, a skeleton, (it looks glitched), a Herobrine zombie, and a zombie pig.
But there are more. A LOT more.

The only thing these skinpacks are is the ones I found on the internet so far.
CHRISTMAS
There are a lot of different skinpacks, including the Christmas one.
Those are the new XBOX 360 skinpacks that I could find on the internet.
ENCHANTING
Part of the new update is the enchanting table. It's a big update too, because most of the people who play XBOX 360 Edition don't know how to enchant. Well, this is how.
First, you make an enchanting table. To make one, you need three obsidian, two diamonds, and a book. Then, it is recommended that you make a three-by-three room of bookshelves.
Next, you get the tool/weapon that you want to enchant.
Then, you open up the menu. You will find that there is a box.
Put the tool/weapon in the box. Three enchantments will come up. They will be in some type of runes that no one can understand.
Just pick the one with the highest level you can afford.
Then, take the tool/weapon out of the box. There will be an enchantment on it. That is your enchantment. You can also do the same with armor.

BREWING
In the update, you can also now brew. Brewing is really complicated, and I already have a page for it, so I won't explain it here.
CRAFTING
In the XBOX 360 version of MInecraft, there is a new and different crafting interface.
On the PC, you have to memorize a MILLION different crafting recipies, but on the XBOX, it gives you the recipies and the ability to make all the different types of the item you want to make. I honestly prefer it to the PC version of crafting.

TUTORIAL WORLD
On the XBOX 360 edition, there is a tutorial world.
In this world, there is the oppurtunity to learn how to play Minecraft: XBOX 360 Edition.
Whenever you see something or have to do something, there is a little popup and you have to either press A to continue learning or press B if you already know how to do what it is trying to teach you. It can sometimes get annoying, but there is a REALLY big REALLY cool village AND an AWESOME castle.
There are two different versions, but you have to already have bought it before the update to have the not updated version. Otherwise you buy it pre-updated.

THE CASTLE
There is also a castle. In either of the updates (pre-update or post-update), the castle is AWESOME.
In the post-updated version, there are random bonus chests hidden in the castle, which is why you can't activate the actual official bonus chest.In one of the chests I found an iron chestplate and a music disc. I kept the chestplate, but, having no need for it, gave the music disc to my brother.
He got the bad chest. It had a bit of string and some iron, but not enough to make anything. He got one iron.
He was really upset that I only gave him the music disc, but I think that he was lucky to get anything of any importance at all. Anyway, both castles are made of a mixture of stone and cobble, but the first one had a big library, which was where I lived after a while (meaning I couldn't stand the tiny village houses). But in this village, I am planning to create a really big house using two of the NPC houses that I call "apartments". I am going to break the cobblestone wall between two of the "apartments", and one of them will be my main living space and bedroom, and the other will be my storage and garage. I'm not sure exactly how I am going to do this, but the end result will be great.

THE OTHER VILLAGE
There is also another village nearby. At the top of the church, there is a large blue flag. I'm not sure why there is a flag, but maybe it's because, once Mojang adds villagers and normally spawning villages, there would be some kind of enemy village that is trying to attack yours. But that's just my opinion.
NEWEST VILLAGE
There has been a brand-new and VERY recent update (as of before Earth Day of 2013) to the XBOX 360 edition!
My favorite part of this newest update is the new tutorial world. Instead of a village, there is a giant castle, with a farm and multiple rooms, and even an underground thing with BUTTER! It's really cool. Go to my blog and find out about it.

YAY! NEW UPDATE!
Yay! There has been a new update to Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition! I've been waiting for this SINCE IT CAME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! (not the update, the game) I've already gotten on and explored the new update some! JUNGLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The world that tested the update spawned me right next to basically everything I wanted to see! Then I went in survival and tried that out with my friend (that was a fail) and then we tested the newest tutorial world! If you don't know, the tutorial world gets updated with every new update. It's pretty cool now, (we were having a BAD creeper problem in the last tutorial), but it's IMPOSSIBLE to find the little sewer thing that leads out into the jungle. (hint: it's in one of the buildings) But almost all of them are made of sandstone, so it's hard to find the right one. also, there's this one "house" that's LITERALLY filled with beds! There have to be TEN! It's amazing! If I tried to build that castle, even in creative, I couldn't do it! (mainly because I suck at building)
