Well not sure if the math adds up and how much would be new users, but sure enough it is one of the sources to revenue on it... MS won't ever release if the buying was lucrative or not, but certainly they will make a lot of use on the buying to get their money worth. Just let watch for the less obvious use MS will do =]


Sure not everthing is clear right now but people are blinded seeing only the game itself while if you step out of that idea of only 1 game (i'm in marketing) you see a larger picture.. Especially with the new ms boss commenting on services being the future.. 2.5 billion is not like pocket money.. But the potential is huge.. Even with the game itself.. If they can like connect it to their azure cloud platform and then connect each other worlds.. That would be like the ultimate game ever.


Now if it was you, would invest those 2.5 in Minecraft or 25 AAA games (could even be financing 2nd party)??? Please answer as gamer and as CEO.
