Minecraft on Xbox 360 (READ DESCRIPTION)?

I'm getting an xbox360 and i'm getting minecraft on it and I was wondering can monsters kill you in survival mode and does all your items get taken?

Yes, and yes.

You get killed and your items fall onto the ground. If you know where you died you have some time to go get your items again before they disappear.

Yes, monsters will kill you if they can. Spiders won't hurt you during the day unless you hit them first. You will drop All of your items but if you can get back to that spot under 5-10 minutes you can get it all back before it disapears.

Happy Holidays!
