User blog:Ireithien/You Need To Click On This Blog Post. Seriously, Do It. For Me. :3

So I'm looking to get Minecraft, but... I need to decide between the PC version or the Xbox 360 version. Normally I'd just get the PC version, but my computer isn't the best and I'm worried I'll lag really bad/get really tired of the graphics quality that I have to set it to to decrease lag. So, I need y'all to vote in the poll below, but first... read the pros and cons lists I have so graciously created.

XBOX 360

Pros:

-No lag, because it's designed for an Xbox 360, specifically.

-Can use a controller, which I prefer to keyboard controls.

-Larger screen to play on.

-Is a bit cheaper than the PC version.

-Better graphics, because in order for me to play on PC, I have to lower all the graphics settings.

(Lemme know if you can think of more. xD)

Cons:

-Behind in updates, so it doesn't have all the content the PC does.

-Will stop updating this fall due to Xbox One version of Minecraft. (At least, that's what I heard.)

-No mods.

-No texture packs.

-Not anywhere near as many skins available as the PC, and most skins on the Xbox need to be paid for, anyway.

-Online multiplayer requires Xbox Live, which I'm not getting.

(Again, let me know if you can think of any more. )

PC

Pros:

-Free online multiplayer.

-Mods.

-Texture packs.

-MANY, MANY, MANY more skins than the Xbox 360.

-Has more content.

-Will not stop updating.

Cons:

-More lag.*

-Poorer graphics, because in order for me to play on PC, I have to lower all the graphics settings.

-Smaller screen to play on.

-Have to play with my keyboard, which I hate.

-This is kinda a small issue, but quite often, when I'm mining normally, it'll randomly pause the game. It's incredibly annoying. Anyone know how to fix this? (Note I've only ever played on the demo, so... IDK about the full game.)


 * About the lag... on demo, I can run the game pretty well with clouds and view bobbing and stuff all off, and my render distance set to normal or short. However, IDK how mods/texture packs/online multiplayer/the size of the full game world will affect my lag and stuff. Also, there's that mod that drastically helps framerate, so... we'll see.

So, the final verdict. Should I get Minecraft for the PC or the Xbox 360? Please post your answer and why specifically you answered that in the comments. Xbox 360 PC

Thanks for taking the time to do this!
