They're just a bunchof gold-diggers actually, they had absolutely no reason in hell to buy minecraft. Why would a educational/operating system company buy a game that is being played by just minecrafters? Probably because they saw good potential in the game but that doesn't mean they have to change it to their likings though. And don't forget, Minecraft was first released for 19.95 (euros). Now, it's at what? 23 24 dollars already? They're making the game more expensive but really no people are buying it. Would you guys still play if Microsoft charged you to play multiplayer? I'm out!
