According to IGN & Wall street journal, Microsoft might be buying Mojang for $2 billion. You may be WTF!?!? but it's really not that crazy if you look into the sell's Mojang has earned they sold about 54 million copy's across all platform's making it on of the top 3 best selling game's of all time. Since Bungie kind of ditched them to make destiny them they need a partnership with a company to produce Xbox only games. So it kind of make's since it's the most popular company of all time and has great developers. If this change happens it shouldn't affect the game play of Minecraft on any console but however, this may affect the sell's majorly they could remove it off any non Microsoft stores and or change the price's of the game. A Quote form a Microsoft spokesman "We don’t comment on rumors or speculation." so this may be legit. What do you guys think is it legit?

This is only a rumor but, I think this may happen by the look's Mojang had has some partnership with Microsoft in the past, For example it getting released on the 360 first.

Looking at this now. It's amazing if you send the source to RTM that would be great.

In the mean time I promoting this to the home page. If RTM feels this should be taken down he will inform you.
