Mojang's Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has sold over a million copies in less than a week on sale. That's according to Microsoft who released the figure today as confirmation of the game's record-breaking XBLA sales. "It's official: Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has has broken all previous Xbox LIVE Arcade digital sales records, selling more than any other title in the first 24 hours on Xbox LIVE Arcade," said Microsoft's Major Nelson blog in an official announcement last week. Minecraft creator Markus 'Notch' Persson last week tweeted that performance numbers were "very, very good" and said the title became "profitable in an hour".

Not really a surprise. It is an amazing game, I had a feeling it would sell so much.

I personally enjoy the game, however, I can't get it on Xbox, because I don't currently have Live. But I enjoy it on PC, and enjoy playing online. I'd definitely get the game if I could.

How much does it cost? Is it $60 like a normal video game or is it a lot cheaper since it is a digital sale?

I couldn't get into besides getting lost and dying constantly. I had no motivation to build anything.

No one thought other.
Minecraft should have sold way more I think, but, meh, this is console, I am a PC player, I don't care much.
Imagine how much users Minecraft would have in 2 years if they released it on the PS3 too.
