What's wrong with that, #6? You're getting your money's worth here.
Minecraft on PC is £16.95 whereas 1600 points is about £13.71. So that's pretty good. |

People complaining about Minecraft being so expensive befuddle me. How can you when that game will give you countless hours of gameplay past it's achievements are reached? Isn't that part of the allure? Trial is just a tad cheaper and not many people are complaining about it's price?!
I personally am going to purchase Trials and Minecraft. I thought the day would never come to see these games launched. |

| The reason MineCraft is more expensive is because it will be subject to regular, free updates like the PC version, so the initial one off price is increased to help maintain this service. |

I think they could have made Minecraft a retail game n it would still be a huge seller. But the reason people don't like the 1600 MS points is cause now they'll start charging that every now n then for games that should be 1200.
At least it's no doubt worth it.
Trials is gonna be out this world also. |

| #22 Not really, the start of the 1600MSP games sorta began with both Sam & Max games, then Penny Arcade Eps. 1 and 2 before they had a price drop, and Watchmen Pt.1 is still 1600MSP where as W.M. Pt.2 is still 1200, which is kinda weird though. |

1600 for Minecraft? Yea, they can keep it. Just wait for all the 800msp DLC that will drop every month. I'd consider it for say, 600, but no more.
Trials... shit yea. I'd pay 2400 for that. Hell, I'd pay $60 retail for it. :D |

I don't understand people getting worked up about 1600 Microsoft points...It costs less than the PC version AND you're getting guaranteed updates that will continue to make the game THAT much better. If you don't think 1600 MSP is worth it, you're being stingy.
@23 It's 4 play split-screen, and up to 8 players can play in a Live game. |

Trials Evolution is the only one that's a day 1 buy for me, and will probably the only game I ever buy without trying the trial version first.
@12 If that were the case wouldn't all the games be 1600 points? It might seem like that to achievement whores/hunters who put more value into achievements than content in the game, but MS doesn't price games based on gamerscore. |

LOL 1600 for Minecraft.
I realize it's cheaper than the PC version.. but it should be an XBLA game.
To me XBLA 1200-400 that's it.
Of course I know this game couldnt be anything but XBLA if it were to be realesed on Xbox soo whatever..

| @67 It won't become the norm. There have been about 5 other 1600pt games and it didn't end up becoming the norm. Since Minecraft will receive frequent updates it's a special case, that's why it's 1600pts. |

| Also you guys seem to think Minecraft is like a normal arcade game that will just be played in one play through and be over when it will easily give you 50 hours if you like it. 20 bucks is well worth it.

Blown away by the complaints that 1600 MSP is too much for an Arcade title. This is why Microsoft wants to move away from the 'Arcade' moniker. Minecraft is a full-featured game and worth more than 1600 MSP, easy.

To everyone complaining about Minecraft and its pricing, allow me to share some statistics from minecraft.net:
24,783,915 registered users, of which 5,336,553 (21.53%) have bought the game.
In the last 24 hours, 65,176 people registered, and 8,037 people bought the game.
After having sold over 4 million copies during development, the complete version of Minecraft (PC) is now available for $26.95.
and then a reminder from this article:
"MINECRAFT: XBOX 360 EDITION, May 9 for 1600 Microsoft Points ($20)"
In conclusion, if you don't like the game, don't buy it, it's your choice, but don't go ripping on it just because you don't like it, because somewhere in the world there are at least 20 Million people who would disagree with you. As for the pricing, for a game that shouldn't even be considered as an arcade game, it's still a lower price than it is if you bought it on PC. |

Forum Posts: 0 | Comment #80 by Niko MadPro Friday, March 23, 2012 @ 02:29:29 PM | |
Just to be clear, what I meant by "shouldn't be considered an arcade game" is that I think that it should be a full game.

Perfect Dark zero is also 6-7 years old. Hence the cheap price.
Also, frankly, that's just a really moronic way of judging what games to buy. Have fun living in 2006 there. |
