'Minecraft revolves around one simple principal: survival. The game is split into day and night cycles. During the day, you spend time gathering resources, whether it be searching for ore, digging holes, fishing or planting crops. Night is spent either indoors, mining underground tunnels, building tools or running around outside being chased by monsters.'

Here's some additional information coming from Hookshot's Kieth Stuart:
Hookshot's Kieth Stuart had the chance to ask the XBLA developers of Minecraft some in-depth questions recently, and they revealed a plethora of information about the upcoming console port. Among other things, the following tidbits were revealed:
  • Character skins will be editable (though, not at launch)
  • Mods will not be available "yet"; the developers want to focus on textures, skins and mods (in that order)
  • Multiplayer? Absolutely! Players can do up to 4-player split-screen or 8-player networked games, or any derivative thereof (two households of 4-player splitscreen, for example)
  • Achievements? Of course, it's XBOX! What XBLA game would be complete without them?
  • Can the XBLA version play with PC games? Not quite; the PC version has been (and likely will be for a long time) far ahead of the console port version, so having PC and console game sessions interact would be tricky at best - though this may change in the future
  • Avatar clothes/collections? Yes, although no specifics at this time
  • Kinect compatibility? Not just yet, but it may come in the future
  • What is the price? "To be announced"
The console port of the hit sandbox game is expected to be available some time this month - keep an eye out for it.

I couldn't find it in the OT. At least it gives you an okay estimate.
