Minecraft for consoles exclusive to Xbox 360, building spring 2012 launch

[jkipp82]

Markus "Notch" Persson has confirmed via Twitter that the console version of Minecraft, announced during E3 for Xbox 360, will be exclusive to Microsoft's system (meaning no PSN or WiiWare versions).

The game will arrive on Xbox Live in the spring of 2012.

Those heading to MineCon in Las Vegas next month will be able to try out the Xbox 360 version. The PC version is also being completed, having already sold millions in its beta state. Those heading to MineCon will receive alpha codes for Mojang's Scrolls and Cobalt.

I just saw this and have to bring it back to life. Really? No one commented on this post? No one plays Minecraft at the Haven? I find that incredibly unlikely.

Holla back y'all (yea I said it)

I bet LT for place block and RT for mining/etc. Then Inv, jump, etc... buttons.
