CarbonCore Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Is Microsoft the only company to directly publish one of its games on a rival console? Sega does this too /runs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rAgHaV Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Never really understood what this game is all about. Is it 8bit LBP? Anyway it used to annoy me a lot an yr ago when every 2nd gaming video on YouTube used to be a Minecraft vid. Jitna zada video dekhta hun uss game ka utna zyada usse door rehne ka mann karta hai.

ALPHA17 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Never really understood what this game is all about. Is it 8bit LBP? Naah! It is much more than Little Big Planet. It is an open world sandbox with no fixed end goals and you as a player have the capability to manipulate the entire world (block by block) and make whatever you want out of it, you can aim to get a list of achievements (already defined) done though and define your own end-game requirements. There are, I think three different modes of play, Free play, Survival and one more which escapes me. For more, visit the Wikia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rAgHaV Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Nope. I get irritated cuz of the digging bit. Anyway should give it a try sometime since there must be a reason for its popularity. I always thought of it as a play create share kinda game and imo nothing touches LBP in that department. Some of the top rated user generated LBP levels are godly mini games apne aap mai hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 2.5Billion. Honestly, considering Minecraft is already on everything you could put it on, seems like a gigantic waste of money. Happy for Notch though, guys seems like a really cool person.

Zod Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Xbox boss Phil Spencer vowed to continue to "make Minecraft available" across non-PC and Xbox platforms, including iOS, Android and PlayStation. Sahi hai..No point in making Minecrat exclusive to Xbox.... Release it on every platform and make as much as profit possible No WII U and 3DS version ? Cancel Vita version and release it on new 3DS.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 No WII U and 3DS version ? Cancel Vita version and release it on new 3DS.... In this economy, how can they cancel any version??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zod Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Here’s why Microsoft is acquiring Mojang for $2.5 billion It’s the kind of success story that inspires newcomers to the industry, and fills others with jealous rage. The confirmation by Microsoft of the Mojang acquisition is in a very real sense the climax of a true indie hit that did not just evolve into a popular game but managed to become a worldwide phenomenon. But does it make sense from a business perspective? The answer is yes, but not for the reasons you think. http://www.superdataresearch.com/blog/mojang-acquisition/ Combined platform sales of 'Minecraft' top 54 million copieshttp://www.examiner.com/article/combined-console-sales-of-minecraft-top-54-million-copies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HundredProofSam Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Makes you wonder what they have planned for Minecraft. They surely didn't buy Mojang for the creative talent there because all of those people have left. What more is there to do with Minecraft?

Shadoken Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 Seems a bit late to get this. With 2.5bn you could have got HL3,Shenmue 3 and TLG exclusive to XB1 Minecraft is a 1 hit wonder which is already on every other platform , do they really think some exclusive minecraft 2 is going to cover all this cost?
