Notch refused to certify Minecraft under Windows 8

The developer of the game Minecraft Markus Persona (Notch) received a letter from Microsoft with a proposal for certification of Minecraft for Windows 8, but in response asked to "stop trying to destroy the PC as an open platform."



He later explained that he would rather accept the inability to launch Minecraft on the Windows 8 platform than the current state of affairs. Maybe, said Notch, in this way we can dissuade at least a couple of people from Windows 8.
