Minecraft for Xbox 360 has sold 2 million copies since its launch in early May. The $20 XBLA version of the sandbox crafting phenomenon sold a million units in five days following its May 7 launch.

XBLA portfolio director Chris Charla tweeted earlier today: "I guess I can officially mention Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition has crossed 2,000,000 in sales on XBLA!!"

As expected. I doubt it will get as much sales as the PC version but we'll never know.

I don't think that people who have purchased the computer version should have to purchase the copy on xbox live. They are just trying to suck every penny out of this game as possible like usual.
