XBLA Minecraft has sold nearly 4.5 Million

4.6
Minecraft was launched May 9 onto XBLA and within 24 hours it had sold over 400,000 copies. Since launching it has sold between 40,000 – 60,000 copies every week and during a period in August it was reportedly selling 17,000 per day!

Now according to Mojang's statistics, at the end of November the game had sold over 4.4 Million.

With a bit of good luck the XBLA game might make it to 5 Million before the end of the year, that would be very impressive!

It's worth noting that Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition is developed by 4J Studios, a UK team that created the Xbox Arcade versions of Perfect Dark, Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie

You do know you can put on textures yourself. I did it on Total miner they both allow it though.

I really want to get this but I've already put money towards the CoD season pass, I'll get it eventually probably.

That's a crazy amount of sales imo, not surprising though since it's an amazing game. :)
