Today's game is Minecraft Xbox 360 edition. The soundtrack for the Oblivion remaster has me wanting to play Fable 2 again (they sound really similar, at least in my head), and i have a disk copy of Fable 2, which i was trying to figure out how to dump the files to Emulate with Xenia (so it's all configured for when i want to play later). I first decided to try Xenia with Minecraft Xbox 360 edition, which is how i got here. I wanted to get it to the Titled Update (TU) that i grew up with, but i couldn't remember which one that was. I could have googled it like a normal person, but where's the fun in that? So i instead downloaded a few and would jump ahead until i got there.

I loaded the TU 0 version of the Tutorial world up first, which i hadn't even known existed back then. My copy of Minecraft started on the third or so version of the Tutorial world, so seeing this was a cool surprise. The tutorial worlds are some of my favorite features of the game.

The chests were glitched and empty. The whole thing was honestly a little creepy, like something you're not supposed to see. I was half expecting to see a certain someone's piercing white eyes staring back at me from the fog.

Even better, there's another tutorial world too before i got to the one that i grew up with, this one had a cool house just propped up right after that staircase. I'm honestly really digging the whole mansion vibe, which is odd because i'm not usually a mansion kind of guy.

Finally, about 4 TUs later, i got to the Tutorial World i grew up with. I wanted to make sure everything works and runs well (because i'm totally breaking this out to play again sometime. I love my PS3 edition but it only goes so far back in versions), so i ran around doing the whole tutorial section, and everything performed perfectly. For an experimental emulator i'm amazed at how everything just runs flawlessly. The Xenia time has done an awesome job. At some point i'd like to somehow set it up to have multiple TUs available as different launch options in steam. I have a theory that i can do it with .sh scripts and Steam Rom Manager, but i'll have to try later.

One last thing i tried was the Halo mash up pack. But that went as well as the screenshot above looks. I've played a bit of Halo, and i think i can speak for certainty that this isn't what it looks like. My guess is that i have a newer version of the pack then what my game version is, so i'll have to track down an older version (if one exists). The same for Skyrim's mashup pack.
