This week, I decided to take a break from my Halo marathon and play Minecraft. This game is an open-world sandbox adventure game that allows the players to play as they please. Players start with nothing and are thrown into a dangerous world with only one objective; survive.
Players have free reign in a randomly generated world where they can interact with everything. Every block in the game is a resource the player can use to create or survive. Players have no set objectives, freedom is the key factor in the game; freedom to explore, to create, to play. The 360 version recently released an updated that added several new features to the game. The new version included a hunger bar, just like the PC version of the game. This meter tracks the player’s health in the game. Over time the meter slowly depletes itself and players are forced to find and eat food. If players don’t do this, their health meter is affected and they lose health. The new update also included randomly generated villages with pre built buildings, large underground fortresses, and most importantly, a creative mode.
In creative mode, players have access to every block type and every object available in the game. There is no hunger meter, there is no need to struggle to survive. Players are only limited by their imagination. Players also have the ability to fly, which makes creating buildings so much easier to accomplish.
The Xbox 360 version of Minecraft is very similar to the PC version. But as of right now, it is still behind the PC version in terms of features, enemies, tools, resources, and an end game. This most recent update has significantly reduced that gap. If the 360 game can be as in depth as the PC version, the game could be incredible.
