| Veknoid_Outcast said: This is such a weird development to me. Persson has been hostile in the past to corporate giants and Mojang, if memory serves me correctly, has on more than one occasion rejected outside funding and buyout attempts. On the other side, I'm curious what Microsoft plans to do with Minecraft. Does it plan to make Minecraft spin-offs for Xbox or just cash in on the original game's profits and growing media empire? |

Maybe he'll speak after the buyout...or maybe he just doesn't care anymore.
Anyway, $2.5 billion do seem insane, but on the other hand, people that don't have kids can't start comprehending how big MC is.
