Minecraft creator Markus Persson aka "Notch" has spit venom at Microsoft and Windows 8. The developer explained over Twitter that he received an email from Microsoft asking for help to certify Minecraft for Windows 8, to which he responded with sharp, cutting words about the new platform.

Windows 8 launches next month, and has generated much buzz over its vast redesign, but it appears Notch won't be among the adopters.

Is it any surprise that a Java developer is slamming new technology?

If only Minecraft was enough to save people like that =[
Hopefully he can convince Gabe to not make Steam work on Windows 8!
