Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition Sells Over 10 Million Copies

Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition Sells Over 10 Million CopiesSome games are just destined to do extremely well when they roll out, and Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition happens to be one of them. In fact, this puppy has just officially gone past the 10 million copies sold mark, at least according to the folks over at Microsoft. Xbox social media director Jeff Rubenstein also sent in his congratulatory message, saying, “Congrats to Mojang, 4J Studios, and Microsoft Studios, and a huge thank you to the 10 million of you who have built, explored, and fought through the night on Xbox 360.”

Not only that, there is more good news to follow up on this rather remarkable achievement, where loyal builders will finally get their due as there is a 50% discount on all skin and texture packs. Unfortunately, the timing of this massive sale would not be as what some would expect, since it will last only for a day. All skin and texture packs here would mean the exclusion of Mashup packs, and this particular sale will happen this coming Saturday, December 14th, where it includes Skin Pack 1, Skin Pack 2, Skin Pack 3, Skin Pack 4, Skin Pack 5, Battle & Beasts Skin Pack, Festive Skin Pack, Plastic Texture Pack, Battle & Beasts 2 Skin Pack, Natural Texture Pack, and Fantasy Texture Pack.

    Polk announces N1 sound bar and Melee gaming headset

    n1-surroundbarFor folks who have not heard about Polk before, well, here we are with a short note on them. Polk happens to be a high-performance audio brand that comes with 40 years of sound, engineering and design expertise, and they have recently announced that they will be making available a couple of products available to the masses. First of all would be the Melee gaming headset that was specially developed for the Xbox 360 console, while there is also the Polk N1 sound bar that delivers an immersive soundstage for gaming as well as entertainment regardless of the gaming platform, with the new Xbox One included. I guess the Xbox 360 still has some life left in its legs despite all of the recent buzz that surrounded next generation game consoles.

    Why would we recommend either one of these to those who game on Microsoft’s consoles? Well, that is because Polk has also extended its partnership with Microsoft all the way until the end of next year, which would result in additional opportunities for product development in the gaming category, while Polk’s sound engineers continue to work with Microsoft’s 343 and Turn 10 Studios to deliver better quality audio in their titles.

    The Melee gaming headset will boast of Polk’s proprietary electronic and acoustic tuning in addition to a DSP Amplifier, ensuring that your ears are treated to a richer, fuller listening experience. Accompanied by a retractable near-field microphone, users are able to carry out chats with one another, as well as to take calls. It will tuck itself smoothly into the ear cup whenever it is not in use. Other than that, Polk’s thumb-reach Audio Mixer would also enable users to adjust listening modes, audio and chat levels, all without the need to remove their hands from the controller.

    As for the N1 sound bar, it has been licensed by Microsoft and designed for the newest Xbox One and Xbox 360 consoles. You will be treated to an upscale design which complements the console’s slimmer form factor, while the sound bar leverages Dolby Digital and a quartet of immersion modes which will enable gamers to achieve a balance between unique listening scenarios in addition to music, ambient details, special effects and dialogue.

    The Polk Melee and N1 sound bar will retail for $199.95 and $299.95, respectively.

    Earlier this year, PopCap Games announced two new titles would be making their way to the Xbox One prior to releasing them on any other platform.

In the case of Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, it looks like the title will be making its way to the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 4 some time after its initial release on the Xbox One. (more…)
