Minecraft 2 console exclusive on xbox one will do wonders for the game system. I think that will be the best chance for Microsoft's xbox one to outsell ps4.

Given Minecraft 1 didn't keep the PS3 from catching up to the Xbox 360, not sure Minecraft 2 (the very name depresses me a little,) is going to herald a triumphant return. o.o That's even assuming Microsoft made that purchase solely to push its platforms, and doesn't want to make a profit as well; the likelihood of Minecraft 2 and associated titles making back that two and a half billion, let alone more, drops significantly if the games only become available on Microsoft platforms.

And considering WiiU didn't grabbed the same casual group of Wii, there is a great chance of Minecraft 2 doesn't convincing much people from giving up Minecraft 1, either because they are satisfied or because they just don't need much more... if they cared about graphics they wouldn't buy Minecraft, and unless they can make it alot more editable then they have no selling point... LBP have been a lot better on each iteration, but they didn't grow exponentially.

From 5.5M to 3.2M is a big drop even when being a better game.
