CastleMiner Z Breaks Sale Records on Xbox Live

By: | Xbox 360 News | September 19, 2012

CastleMiner Z has set the record for the best-selling Xbox Live indie game ever. DigitalDNA announced today that the indie co-op survival horror game has sold over 1 million units since its release just over 10 months ago on November 9 2011.

The game is a blocky world-building survival game in a world that Minecraft players may find familiar. However, it uses Xbox Live avatars as playable characters and is available on Microsoft's Live Arcade at the price of just 80 Microsoft Points. DigitalDNA added that CastleMiner Z was the first game to remain the daily best-selling game on Xbox Live's indie channel for over 10 months.

I'm a lifelong gamer and share my passion with the world in the form of streaming my games on twitch.tv - www.twitch.tv/terrorhertz and making YouTube videos about all the games I enjoy. I'm also a budding games journalist here :)

My gaming journey began in the Christmas 1992 when aged 6, I got my Sega Mega Drive with Sonic One and World Cup Italia 90. Since then I have played and own pretty much every console since then, just check my collection video on my YouTube channel.

Now days I mainly play PC games and got into the PC side of things when I started playing Everquest in 2005. This game opened my eyes to the mmorpg genre and since then have played most MMO's of which World of Warcraft was my most played. Right now I'm playing and streaming DayZ and FIFA with a few other games thrown in here and there. I'm a games journalist and write weekly articles and monthly reviews and previews whilst also uploading 3+ videos weekly to my YouTube channel where you can find loads of awesome HD gaming videos - www.youtube.com/terrorhertzhd

I've worked as a hardware/software technician for Apple the past 4 years and really enjoy working with computers. I have built/modded/overclocked PC's since around 2007 and it's a massive interest of mine. My other hobbies include video editing, carp fishing, golf and playing guitar.
