Playing The Oldest Version of Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition

Minecraft has been evolving ever since it first began with frequent updates improving the game adding new features to keep the community interested even though there’s so much more you can do in modern Minecraft I still like to revisit simpler times in the game’s history and experience some Nostalgia

From the older updates I have always wanted to play the very first version of Minecraft on Xbox 360. as I watch lots of Let’s Plays on it years ago and today I finally got around to downloading Minecraft from the Xbox arcade store and have it ready to play the game as it was

When it released in 2012. let’s take a look at where Minecraft Legacy Edition began we’re here we’re on the original menu for Minecraft Xbox 360 edition firstly look at the background you can see the original tutorial world the one that kicked off all of the others to

Come and we’ll definitely go and check that one out after we play a little bit of survival mode so I’m gonna make a world now I don’t know what these worlds are what is winter is coming I don’t remember making that I don’t think I should touch any of these worlds because

I made them in a future update and I have no idea what that will do to my game they’d probably get really corrupted it’s gonna be called Doug I’m Gonna Leave the seed blank we can find out our true destiny that way let’s go hard to make it interesting and create

World I’m scared to see what it’s going to be like I’m hoping we get an incredible spawn as I know the old Xbox 360 edition is in like the same as Minecraft Beta for Java and that version has its own unique generating patterns the world looked very different back

Then they had a lot more elevation to them there was always Crazy Mountains and hills in the background that kind of looked a bit glitchy like this look we’ve already got some giant Hill right here yeah it’s a lot steeper than most of the hills are nowadays in Minecraft

Oh look at the tips collected using a shovel can be smelted into glass I miss having tips I remember when I first played Java Edition I had no idea what I was doing because they don’t tell you anything so we have pigs I should probably kill a couple of those oh and I

Just remembered we don’t have a hunger bar why did it not drop meat if it doesn’t drop meat where is it gone let’s find another one that doesn’t just disappear look at the old color of the grass oh and over here it’s quite bright green wow

You can just tell like the graphics are a little bit different there’s just something about the beta textures I don’t even know what’s different about it maybe more saturation I’m gonna find out if you punch a sheep does it just drop well it does look at that you don’t

Need shears and you don’t have to kill the Sheep they can be spared for once oh I’ve already got enough for two beds nice now they just look cold let’s go up this hill and see if we can spot anything cool to go look at oh do we get

The map yeah we do this is your inventory it shows items available for use in your hand all the other things you’re carrying your armor is also shown here I already know about the inventory we’re very Central okay oh we’ve got a big choice of which way we can explore

Them that is one steep drop and a cave let’s go in the cave look how nice the terrain generation used to be I do miss it it is more exciting than we have nowadays if there weren’t loads of new biomes then I would definitely prefer this it’s just a shame there’s

Like two different biomes we didn’t get any pigment maybe it’s only cows oh that just dropped leather where am I gonna get food I guess I don’t need food until I take damage I’m just gonna have to be really careful wait is it time to get an achievement no I probably already

Have this from playing before yeah I thought I was gonna get the iconic getting wood achievement I got that in my last Xbox video and it was really exciting I can still remember the first day I got Xbox 360 and getting that achievement with the noise coming up was

Such a core memory and I remember it being probably my favorite Christmas because I got this game on Christmas day I probably didn’t even speak to my family for the rest of the day I’m gonna kill this chicken and see if that gives me food no what where can I get food

From I’m just being really unlucky there’s another here surely it will drop me something feathers I was better than the last chicken oh look I always get excited to find these in these videos an iconic part of old Minecraft the rose can be crafted into dye a very

Useful item if you want to build Mario pixel arts that’s about it it was such a staple of Minecraft I can’t believe they changed it for poppies I think the reason they changed it is because it makes no sense to have a rose on the floor I believe Rose is growing bushes

And that’s why they changed it for that but I don’t care what makes sense in Minecraft I just want my rose back I’m so happy to see it yes we got our first meet as well and if you didn’t know you can’t Sprint in this Edition I’m not just being stupid and walking

Around slowly oh hold up is that a sky island challenge already built for me what I’m gonna ignore the cave I was gonna go to let’s go over there and start living on an island check out the water it looks so much brighter than it does nowadays comment down below that’s

Definitely brighter right maybe I want a steak I’m just getting leather oh yeah I might oh I can make my first piece of armor though do these actually not drop Meats is it only pork chops you can get now oh yeah look at that that’s even better

Generation I haven’t seen a sky island generate naturally for so long I don’t know why I’m doing that I’m never gonna need this sugarcane farm that is such a good place for a house up there let’s make our way over haven’t even made tools yet actually let’s look at the old crafting menu from Xbox 360. oh it’s even different on this old one they

Have an area for transport I think transport might just be part of this now like the mechanics part the Redstone so it’s a bit different to the newer crafting menu because there’s less stuff obviously Oh What A View as well I’m really happy with the seed I’ll put

It in the description if you guys want to check it out for yourself oh I’m so stupid I want tools I used all my wood on the stairs that cave is really dark is that normal while I chopped down wood comment down below your favorite thing

About this old version just want to make this for fun back in the day chests were a solid block like a full-size block look nowadays they’re a little bit dipped into the floor but yeah they used to just be big boxy blocks and we can see it’s getting nighttime now

Let’s make that bed is that gonna do that glitch they used to be a glitch where you would get killed by monsters when you tried to sleep and I don’t know if it’s gonna happen wow we got lucky I kind of actually wanted to experience

It it was really weird it was like your character had a nightmare I don’t know what the fix for the bug was you had to do something with torches check out that waterfall as well if I build a house up there I should have a big window looking out to that

Waterfall Stone can be mined with a pickaxe to collect Cobblestone they’re not wrong but it’s not very interesting is there anything else they could have said about stone look at this never mind oh yeah it was just a thing that stairs caught my mind with an ax I thought they

Could be mined quicker with a pickaxe and they’ve got it oh I think I know what it was I kind of want to show this off now some of you may know what I’m talking about already okay so if I place down a wooden slab there

The ax should be mining it quicker but it’s not like if I mine it with a pickaxe it breaks really quickly and you can even see that they’ve just completely made this the wrong Block in the code or something you can see Stone particles coming off of it I remember

Seeing a video about it and I’ve completely forgotten why the reason was there was something interesting there I’ll link down the video if I can find it look at the Cobblestone texture as well it’s the old one was much darker features to it there we go oh I’m in the

Clouds why did I just scream can I turn clouds off actually it’s kind of cool being in the clouds this is what Minecraft should look like I feel accomplished climbing all the way up onto this mountain do you like my staircase I think it’s pretty nice looking oh my God

Um I’m gonna need those pork chops now you can’t even stack food let’s make a little Shack I like the one tree up here it actually is like a sky island challenge where you have one tree to survive off of and I’m gonna have to break it down to build up my house

Oh I need to stop hurting myself are you kidding me one piece of wood off we’re going back down gonna mine some more trees and I need cobblestone as well anyway building like the world’s smallest ugliest house whoa whoa this is exciting what was that I got a Steve

Gamer picture I hate Big Trees oh there’s always one piece of wood I forget that always a pain to cut down yay the house is finished it’s not complete without a door perfect just in time before we go to bed again and there’s no floor or Windows

But you can imagine what it would look like in its Glory rape my house out of 10 in the comments and you have to give a reason it looks so weird watching the world get darker all around me why are those bits still lit up oh it’s

One pixel of sun left did you see that I’m gonna go to sleep again that’s what I was talking about that’s exactly the nightmare okay so we had our first nightmare well I did want to show you guys I guess I got what I asked for I think I’m Gonna

Leave This World now that was scary now we can go check out the old tutorial world and see what it looks like it’s probably the one I played the least I did make a video on the title update 3 tutorial world this one’s pretty much the same but there’s a couple

Differences let’s go I can’t wait to see it oh that was quick this is the classic starting area that all of the worlds kind of had I have to chop down four blocks of wood oh you can even see it description of all the items it is

Really helpful for Redstone look at that it’s really hard to know what Redstone is if you haven’t watched videos about it on YouTube so I can see this being quite helpful for a new player okay I’ve completed the first part of the tutorial there’s always this abandoned Shack at

The start let’s look around first though before we go into the next bit let’s catch a fish for good luck oh my God it came up tell me to press B I press it and then I lose my fishing rod oh come on hurry up oh yes

One fish the texture looks weird in the inventory is it broken there’s the Minecraft sign up there always in these tutorial worlds now I can go through the tunnel into the main part so it’s a very simple tutorial world it’s got a small little village here I think this is before Villages

Spawned in the game so it’s like a man-made one oh there’s a little library in here I was in the chest nothing where are the music discs we have to find oh look at the old gravel textures here they demonstrate some Redstone with a

Lever oh I really want to go and do that the roller coaster to the castle that has to be the best part of this world that is a very Minecraft Beta looking castle if I’ve ever seen one time to go there’s no audio for Minecarts oh no

Look in the total update 3 tutorial world that I did a video on there was a redstone Bridge you could make here from a cobblestone generator but this is before that and it’s just a normal Bridge so maybe Cobblestone generators didn’t work oh I don’t think there’s

Pistons in this mode that’s why it’s not there what’s down here a little dock you can take your boat out at night that’s cool let’s go into the Church of the place I think it’s a church let’s go with the tower we could jump off the top actually the generation

Isn’t as good as my seed I think I got lucky surely there’s a music disc all the way at the top where’s the ladder ah oh no there’s not oh well I’m gonna jump now I’m a bit nervous because you can still take full damage in water if it’s not deep enough

Oh that was fine oh no no no how do I get out oh bye-bye wow that was I didn’t even intend to do that I just shipped him off to somewhere he’s gonna be around the corner isn’t he that was another creeper are you kidding actually I’m gonna let it kill me

Stop they took the pig with me the reason I did that was so we can go check out the other Village behind here did you see that Tower in the water oh no go away but anyway there’s a tower over there it’s not too exciting it’s got

Fire on the top but there’s nothing really in there I don’t think and then I believe there’s a village this direction oh I was right I see it there’s the barn I remember that it’s kind of very similar to the last Village except it does have a barn and the houses look the

Same though I’m gonna go to bed there’s so many zombies outside oh no I forgot to say so you got a wheat farm a barn for no reason there’s nothing in there this story world is just really simple there’s not much to it the main

Part is the big castle area then you got two little Villages and a random Tower in the ocean it’s quite cool how far these tutorials have come because you look at the newer ones the whole worlds are just scattered with Incredible buildings like really detailed really

Giant places and this is what it all started from it’s amazing okay let’s leave the tutorial world now and the last thing I want to do is check out this famous seed for a Minecraft Beta this seed is called Gargamel and you spawn in the middle of this crazy

Landscape where the mountains towering all around you I hope I spelled it right load I think this is it this is right right yeah look at this this was a famous seed all the way back in Minecraft Beta days there’s like a tunnel over there that leads into a cave

Area I think and look it’s like a little area surrounded by giant mountains and cliffs you could have a really crazy base over here let’s get to the top so we can really see what it’s like we’re even above the clouds check it out wow what a view

That’s where we spawned over there I’ve walked all the way around it here’s a cave under there probably got loads of monsters inside I don’t want to go in there I really love the seed it’s probably my favorite ever seed it’s like the most memorable one because I can’t

Think of any other seeds off the top of my head that could beat this so there you go a really cool seed to end the video off and that’s all I really have to show you guys for today it was so fun finally getting to try out the first
