Minecraft (http://www.joystiq.com/game/minecraft)'s Xbox 360 version continues to march forward, with the latest update (1.73) bringing "pistons and sticky pistons," "stackable fences," and a whole mess of other items, functions, and skins to your handcrafted block world. There are even 40 new character skins, some of which can be seen above. The update doesn't include NPCs, villages, or the much desired Adventure Mode, but 4J Studios promises those will come in time (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/05/24/adventure-update-components-coming-to-minecraft-xbla-eventually/).

The patch, which corrects some errors too, goes live tomorrow at 2AM UTC. The full list of changes is right after the break.
