Minecraft coming to xbox 360

If only it was on PSN. Oh well. Minecraft ftw. It looks like a rip off with better graphics anyway.

It looks like a rip off with a different graphics style. I'd hardly call them 'better'.

I wanna know if they actually spoke to notch about it. Because I highly doubt he would let someone copy the whole of his game just so they can change the graphics and release it on xbox :S

Even if they were to submit it I doubt Microsoft would give it a second glance because of all the hassle it would cause.

Same here. They must be in talks in some shape or form. No way a rip of minecraft will be released for xbox without him giving consent.

The water is, and the blocks can do a higher resolution.

I see a copyright claim from Mojang in the future..

I think this is probably the best post to reply to.

Whilst FortressCraft Chapter 1 has been heavily inspired by Minecraft Creative (NOT survival), you'll find that I'm in violation of no laws. Not patent (There is nothing to patent), not trademark (My game is not called Minecraft), not copyright (I have taken no code or graphics or sound from Minecraft). The same also applies to plagiarism and 'theft'. My main goal is to make another game in the same genre as Minecraft, that is, the voxgame genre. If you have never heard of them, I would recommend you go look up 'Roblox' and then 'Infiniminer', both of which predate Minecraft (Roblox being released over 5 ago!)

As time goes on, FortressCraft will appear to be less of a 'direct rip' and more of it's own game. I only started it 4 weeks ago. Give me a chance, eh!

I don't know about Roblox as I've never seen it but I know for a fact that Minecraft was based HEAVILY on Infiniminer during initial creation, so yeah this is no more of a "rip" than suggesting FIFA and Pro Evo are rips of each other. I likely won't be playing it myself as I don't have an Xbox but best of luck to the designers who seem to have done a lot in very little time so far

omg fortresscraft maker is on hxf? Now we just need notch to join

Infiniminer's source was released and it faded away, this seems like a pure rip of an extremely fast growing game. It's just trying to hijack the success of minecraft. I hope this game dies a very painful and costly death
