What you see above is a preview screenshot of the different UI screens that have been added in. Anvils themselves also have their own interface. Logs can now also be placed sideways.
Recipes have been added for Smooth Sandstone and Chiseled Sandstone. Zombie Villagers added to Mobs. There are also new terrain generation features: Desert Temples, Desert Villages, and Jungle Temples, and more villager professions. Speaking of which, you can now trade with villagers.
Remote players get new Host Options when flying, invisible, and invulnerable. Player teleports can now be done using the in-game menu.
Finally, Danish, Finnish, Latin American Spanish, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Swedish and Turkish have been added to languages. There are also tutorials for some of these new items and features, so you don’t have to worry about feeling lost.

If you’re one of the newcomers playing Minecraft on Playstation 3, how are you liking it so far? You should recognize that a lot of these additions are not just to get you up to date with the Xbox 360 version, but also so that the overall experience is vastly improved. No word yet if Mash-Up Packs are also coming to Playstation 3, but don’t hold out hope completely yet. It’s mostly a matter of 4J and Mojang dividing development time between two consoles now.
