Should we start taking bets on what reason the boner brigade will lean on for the uplift in sales other than "it had the cheapest sticker price on black friday and that's literally all that matters to black friday shoppers"

I hope it has crossplay between PC and Bone because it would be a good trend to start, and this is probably a reaction to SFV anyway.

MS just wants to make sure that more people than just their boners are affected when XBL goes down. It really sticks in their craw that steam has been up and running for a month straight.

Okay but what if the idea of Microsoft consoles is being phased out? They didn't buy Minecraft to make it Xbox exclusive, they're porting first party games to PC. I know it's like a meme that MS promises to support PC and then never does it, but if Xbox actually is on the way out, which I know a lot of you guys believe, then it kind of makes sense to finally do it. Especially if they're serious about creating a Windows app store????

But there is no need to make Minecraft cross platform. It can exist in each little world as each device stops receiving updates from the main code base. I think the point of mindcraft was to have a property that will drive every kid currently 8 years old to always have a reason to buy MS' version of a product for the next 20 years, not to recreate The Matrix with hatchets & chickens.

Yeah that's my point. There's nothing standing in the way of cross platform play but microsoft and also developers need to inplement it. I think killer instinct could very well go cross-platform. It's shortsighted to say it will never happen
