Xbox One Developers Kit in One

Hey Everyone, 


Markus "Notch" Persson creator of Minecraft  says Microsoft's decision to make every Xbox One a development kit is a "wonderful idea."



Persson has spoken out to in fact praise Microsoft's Indie Developers Policy and to mention how every Xbox can be used as a development kit. 



It actually seems like common sense to me to give developers the chance to work with the software and hardware to make the best video games available. 

Persson further stated "I realize there are other factors at play here, though, like a perceived need to make sure only ‘legitimate’ developers get access to it, so a monetary barrier might still be in place." In this regards Persson is basically stating that there will still be a fee to ensure that the only "real" developers will have access to the kit. 

Microsoft truly feels that the new policy will benefit students by allowing them the opportunity to program and develop games. We shall see how it all plays out.
