they should have bought sony instead. To end the war once and for all. Or well they should have used the 2bn to make more powerful XBO's...

But whatever.


TBH Minecraft for even 500m would be a waste of money.

I'm not against MS spending money, but you are right Minecraft by itself is NOT worth 2b and Mojang hasn't made anything else. I don't mind if they get bought, but it should be at a cheaper price. 

I know right?   I mean Minecraft is a  Blockland/Infiniminer Ripoff. and 90% of the work on that game was made by the community and then notch added stuff that was suggested by the community / copied community ideas etc (but worse than the mods his ripoffs are based on).

The whole thing is a waste of money IMO.
