    Mais... euh... sérieusement ? c'est quoi l'intérêt ? c'est quoi le "jeu" ? ah le "jeu" c'est d'y trouver un intérêt, j'ai compris ! Alors attendez, je cherche, je cherche...

    Bon, je vois pas. Enfin si, je vois les graphismes immondes à faire vomir un bouc ; ça me rappelle l'époque du jeu PC avant que 3Dfx ne débarque (cette révolution pixelienne, que d'émotions).

    Bon, je vois pas. Enfin si, je vois les graphismes immondes à faire vomir un bouc ; ça me rappelle l'époque du jeu PC avant que 3Dfx ne débarque (cette révolution pixelienne, que d'émotions). Donc là, ça rappelle plutôt de mauvais souvenirs tous ces gros carrés qui vous regardent droit dans les yeux sans honte. Quoique ce soit bien pire qu'à l'époque, car en ce temps-là, les jeux n'étaient pas constitués uniquement de blocs pixélisés, non, non.

    Bref, les graphismes donnent l'impression d'un crachat en pleine gueule... pour 20 balles quand même. Non, ne mélange pas tout : tu files 20 balles pour te faire cracher dessus, pas l'inverse. Et tu dis merci.

    L'interface est à chier par terre à la manette : j'ai rarement vu un truc pareil. Pas intuitif pour un sou, pas ergonomique, mal foutu, tarabiscoté, illogique, dénué du moindre bon sens : une interface de psychopathe épileptogène.

    Du reste, la mécanique de ce pseudo-jeu est pauvre et le but peu motivant : fabrique des trucs parce que les monstres sortent la nuit ! c'est d'un ennui consternant, ce monde générique de pacotille généré aléatoirement. Rendez-moi mes vieux Légos, je vous fais un Star Destroyer ! sans me faire chier avec cette merde de "Minecraft" !    … Expand

    Rip off. This dumb downed minecraft version is very expensive and does not offer any mods. It felt very basic and was really slow. This felt like Minecraft alpha last time I played it.

    Eh. I kind of feel bad for giving it a score this low, but I really have to. The only reason why it is this low is price vs content. The only reason to buy this version is so you can play split screen with your children. The pc version is 5 ish bucks more expensive and has way more options. More servers, more players, mods. Still Minecraft is a dead game and is even deader on the XBone.

    I'm not exactly giving this version of Minecraft a low rating specifically, because I'm kind of rating Minecraft all together. Even though it can be fun for others to build a ton of stuff and try to survive monsters, for me, this game gets way to repetitive. Because it's a sandbox game, there's kind of no limit to what you can build, and that is kind of what upsets me.

This is just my opinion, and if others give it a better rating, then I'm okay. But, honestly, the game is a bit overrated.… Expand

    sooooo buggy. my kids play this all the time, but they also complain about it not working right all the time. a common one is someone's corner of the screen will just stop working. it will keep telling them to press start to play, but when they press start nothing happens. have to restart the game to fix. another one is someone will start a map in creative mode, have the options set to newsooooo buggy. my kids play this all the time, but they also complain about it not working right all the time. a common one is someone's corner of the screen will just stop working. it will keep telling them to press start to play, but when they press start nothing happens. have to restart the game to fix. another one is someone will start a map in creative mode, have the options set to new players will also be in creative mode, but new players will join and won't be in creative mode. no way of fixing this I have found. another one is just horses not being ridable at all. no fix. also the game wreaks havoc on the xbox itself, even after the game is closed, causing lots of slowdowns and sometimes making it just hang on a grayed-out screen instead of letting people sign in. have to do a full power cycle to fix.… Expand

    Wasnt sure where to put this but since this version of the game is basically the same as windows 10 one i will put it here. Mojong are thieves.

Mojong are thieves. I had expected that realms would play like the normal game as i was unable to try my free trail of realms due to life things. i was caught unawares by the fact that not only does it suck hard but you cant get your money back for time you don't want on a realm, meaning if they have your money for half a year and you find out how bad realms are well they are keeping it screw you. To further infuriate me they seem to be blocking comments about how bad realms are i can only assume to get more people to waste their money.
    This wouldn't even be such an issue but the game runs better hosting locally from a fking xbox then on the realm, WTH how are you going to charge me for a service that is worse then what i could already get. The render distance is super low making it pointless to build anything of size since you wont be able to see it and flying on creative mode is pointless since you cant see anything to fly to it, basically its garbage. I bought half a year so i could play a world with my kids that they could work on when i was at work but they get lost in two seconds cause the entire world is covered in fog and Mojong wants me to know that i cant have my money back for the following months or even complain to them about this.
    The sad part is even though this version of the game is inferior the java one its still really good, but i cant support a game like this when the company wont even allow people to talk about the problems they have, i feel like i have been robbed, i paid them expecting one thing, got another and now i cant even ask for my money back never mind get it.    … Expand

    XONE version is not creative once so ever. It just took the X360 version and did some minor changes that aren't important and barfed it out of their filthy mouths. Not really fun only if you have friends so this game is bad or mediocre which means if you don't know "not really good".

    minecraft is an amazing game, but the xbox one version is **** to say the least.
    the UI is in your face with "but this, buy that." hell the front loading page wants to sell you something.
    and the menu layout is crap, not to mention the lag that plagues the whole game. i get micro lag spikes even when playing offline with NO INTERNET. the biggest complaint i have is the community,    minecraft is an amazing game, but the xbox one version is **** to say the least.

    the biggest complaint i have is the community, Microsoft forced mojanj to divide the community between causal players and competitive players and a big focus on "PVP" and no the core game itself.
    i bought the game used, and it was the biggest waste of 25$ ever.    … Expand

    It seems pointless praising a game everyone knows is great, but this version provides a much more stable gaming experience.

    Much like going from a rustic shelter to a statuesque castle, Minecraft: Xbox One Edition will only offer more in time, with future updates adding even more hours to a game already brimming with near-endless potential.

    You know the game, and the good thing is that on Xbox One it works well, thanks to a good optimization.
