Minecraft for PS3

mwddrwg

Minecraft for PS3 is out in Europe tomorrow. I'm getting a used PS3 for the kids soon and would like to have this on the console before they get it.

Does anyone know how much the download costs?

Many thanks

Probably around the same price as on Xbox, I think it's around £15. Skins and texture packs DLC will cost extra

Will Minecraft: PlayStation 3 Edition feature DLC texture packs and skins?

Downloadable skins and texture packs will be available from PlayStation Store soon after release.

It's a great game I'm sure your kids will love it , I have it on my iPad and Xbox 360, and thinking about getting it for PC. Probably won't bother with PS3 version myself though, can't imagine it's any different than the xbox version.

About time! Glad I don't have to buy an xbox for one game now lol. Does the xbox version have more features than the paid-for tablet version? My son loves messing about on it on my tablet but don't want to get the ps3 one if it doesn't have many more features.

Thanks for the info. My lad already has it on our PC and keeps hogging the thing so having it on PS3 would be ideal

Going to have a go at downloading it before Christmas, just to check it works you understand

The game is better on console than tablet IMO, I think there are extras (although I haven't played xbox version for quite a while so can't remember everything) better control and movement. Plus extra skins and things. I'd say it's worth getting it on console.

Thanks for the info. Downloaded the demo and it does look better when doing the tutorial. The only thing is I didn't see a mode without the creepers. They scare ds a bit. In fact they scare me too when you turn around and have one right in your face lol.

Really want to buy it but spent enough on ds for Christmas. Maybe I should treat myself? :A
