    Still beta Minecraft nets devs 33 mil !

    http://techreport.com/discussions.x/20741

    Minecraft is an interesting phenomenon. Despite still being in beta, the game has sold more than 1.8 million copies, netting indie developer Mojang over $33 million. And as far as graphics, it looks like a 2004'ish era mess !!!

    Ohh, and I forgot the best part ....
    NO CONSOLE PORT AND NO DRM !!!!

    Yea, hard to believe in this day and age, but I'm sure we will soon see hundreds of knock off titles lacking graphics polish and semi-original gameplay.
    Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry Chapin
