The PlayStation Store sells all sorts of games, downloadable content, themes, and multimedia to its patrons, but a recently published tally for the online marketplace reveals that Microsoft’s own Minecraft is dominating PS4, PS Vita, and PlayStation 3 sales.  The PlayStation Blog recently published results for 2014 sales on the PlayStation Store, and Minecraft is number one across all platforms.

Minecraft on the PlayStation 3 was the number one selling game across all platforms, though Sony notes that PlayStation Plus downloads were not included in the tallies.  It’s not a huge surprise that Minecraft is also dominating the PlayStation Store, a recent announcement from Mojang revealed that the game had sold over 18 million copies on PC and mobile devices.

Minecraft is available on just about every platform imaginable, with 4J Studios having handled the development of the console versions since the game first came to the Xbox 360 way back when.  Though it looks like Microsoft’s massive purchase of the game from Mojang is paying off big, giving them the number one downloadable title on their rival’s online storefront.

Since Microsoft took ownership of the game, the console versions of Minecraft have seen only a slight advantage to playing it on Xbox platforms.  Major announcements, updates and patches seem to be rolling out to Xbox players first.

There doesn’t seem to be anything slowing the Minecraft freight train down.  In fact, the franchise is expanding.  A story mode game from Telltale Games is slated to arrive in 2015, and I suppose there’s always the possibility of a full fledged sequel down the line, though Xbox boss Phil Spencer doesn’t believe that’s absolutely necessary.

Not really... Like what Sony PCs

Sony's PCs market share is like nothing compared to others; 10 years ago maybe it has some legs but not at all today. This is a sad thing by the way...

what you posted in no way contradicts his point... even if there were only 3 sony pcs in existence and 2 had windows his point would be valid

but i suppose you tend to forget logic sometimes when you are in a mad rush to downplay something

Dude... just chill out lol.

As I said, it is sad thing that Sony's PCs are basically dead. His point is not valid at all. Windows OS is not selling best on Sony's PCs... As they are basically making like no money at all from those PCs compared to let's say Dell or HP or a truckload of other PC vendors out there.

WTF is wrong with you people to always come here and think everything is fanboy wars. Next time, try to look away from my avatar before to post the bolded part and relax.

i think that this is more appropriate for you "Dude... just chill out lol."

all i'm doing is showing you how in your rush to criticise sony you are posting nonsense that's all

"Windows OS is not selling best on Sony's PCs"

windows is the best selling os on any pc with the exception of macs so no that's wrong

"As they are basically making like no money at all"

absolutely irrelevent he didn't at any time talk about revenue or profits or whatever

" Next time, try to look away from my avatar before to post the bolded part and relax."

lol that got old the last fifty times i've seen you posting that lame defense

You got moderated for your aggressive response and you keep coming with the same attitude?

So please, tell me: "Selling best" = why then if it is not about making more money out of it?

Maybe for you, selling best has nothing to do with selling more or bringing more money than competitor but for a lot (including me) it does, so I believe my post was more than appropriate and not about "criticism" like you keep saying.
