$2.5 billion... I can't even.

and to think uncharted 2 costed like 21 million or so. 

Just think about what you could do with $2.5 billion in the games industry, think about all the games you could fund, imagine Sony having $2.5 billion just toat hand that they could use to fund new first/third party projects. And all that for Minecraft? Well, I'll sure as hell be following what MS is going to do with this, they gotta have some plan to recuperate this money.
