I personally think minecraft on xbox isn't a good idea. There won't be updates, the controls will most likely feel strange to anyone who's played before. And worst of all, I haven't heard any news of being able to use mods on the xbox version.

Review: Nexuiz [RealTalkGaming]

Nexuiz is a game that started its life out as a Quake mod for PC and is coincidentally still free to download. So is it worth the asking price (of 800 MSP/ $10) when the original PC version (dubbed Nexuiz Classic by illfonic) is free? Illfonic started on a good development point with the license of Cry Engine 3. This alone tells you that this isn’t merely a paint job of the PC freeware. The first time I played Nexuiz I was pleasantly surprised by how much fun I had. There’s certainly some neat features packed in to the game and I can’t not tell you about the nostalgia, Nexuiz is undoubtedly a throwback to the days of Unreal Tournament and Quake Arena.
