What I expected to happen was for Minecraft 1.8 to start and I could play the game.
What actually happened was that Launcher did its usually thing, I got the Mojang startup window, then it crashed. When I restarted the Launcher, I had a crash log.
Steps to Reproduce:*
1. Start the Minecraft Launcher 1.5.3 app.
2.Make sure I'm using a vanilla Minecraft profile.
3. Make sure it says "Ready to play Minecraft 1.8" just above the Switch User button.
4. Click Play.

Well, this will be fixed when a new version of 1.8 is released (1.8.1 as an example).
