2.5 Million Miners Buy Minecraft
There are 2.5 million people in the world of independent phenomenon Minecraft, and they'atomic number 75 all being blown up by Creepers.
In that location's no doubtfulness that Minecraft is the very definition of "indie success narration." It came out of nowhere to be the surprise hit of 2010, it made a gazillion bucks and allowed its creator Notch to create his own development studio apartment, Mojang Av (which won our very own Marching music Mayhem). Heck, its Xbox 360, Kinect-steam-powered port was one of Microsoft's biggest E3 announcements.
Sooner today, Notch announced via Twitter that Minecraft had officially sold 2.5 one thousand thousand copies – as much as the first Diablo and FarCry, he said. Not bad for a back that technically isn't exterior yet, eh?
The next milestone, naturally, is selling 3 trillion copies – which will put it on equal footing with games the like Fable, Professor Layton and the Curious Village, Parappa the Rapper, The Getaway, Aureole 3: ODST, Final Fantasy X-2, Warcraft Terzetto, Crysis, Command &adenosine monophosphate; Conquer: Red Alert, and Dragon Senesce: Origins. Roughly equal footing, anyway – finding games that sold nearly 3 million copies is harder than it looks!
Congrats, Notch and Mojang. May your creepers blow up millions of unsuspecting miners for years to come. Indeed, in celebration – sing it with me like a sho, everyone! "Hey Hey Hey! I been minin' all day long-lasting…"
