So on Xbla.com it's been announced that the 1.7.3 update go the Xbox 360 port will come out at July 13 2 A.M UTC. Here's a utc converter. http://www.worldtimeserver.com/convert_time_in_UTC.aspx . Now since I live in Washington state that means it comes out 7 o'clock for me. We now will be able to do our red stone inventions on the Xbox 360 port. It has a lot I features an fixes. Such as stackable fences, added shears, lighting fixes, fixed bugs an so on. You can read the full list at xbla.com

Out of curiosity, how far away is the XBLA version from the PC version, update-wise? Will there be parity between the two versions after this update, or is the XBLA release still behind in a few ways?

This is less me pointing out how superior the PC is and more me wondering how the patching process for XBLA works.

At this rate, the PC version will have gained sentience months before the 360 version gets out of the PC Beta updates.

They're not really far behind, the next update is 1.8.3 then to 1.2 I believe. So really they're not really behind.
