Good game as my son wanted. Available and easy to collect

Minecraft is about the big things, just as much as it favors the small. It's almost impossible to think of Minecraft without envisioning the picturesque structures, from castles to cities, that have been constructed by fans.

Construction and adventuring is incredibly satisfying; Sandbox world offers immense potential; Xbox Live makes it a snap to play with friends; World barriers have been expanded far into the distance

It's Minecraft. There's nothing a whole lot more to say if I'm perfectly honest. It's not a huge upgrade over the 360 version (sure, there's bigger worlds and better draw distance but co-op connection is still poor) - if you like Minecraft then go for it, you'll love it.

What's the big deal about Minecraft? In a nutshell, it offers a deep and engrossing survival simulation. You can spend a lot of time exploring your uniquely generated world, or even hop online and team up with friends.

Of course this is targeting those that have already played Minecraft, when there are a fair amount of you out there that stilll haven't. If you're one of them, know that this is the smoothest, most-rounded release of the game yet.
