I'm aware, however I was just making this suggestion so Regalis could make some money and so we could get more popular with this thing.

The Foundation wiki would shit themselves if we tried to sell anything that they made originally. Selling it in any way is a dumb idea.

Yes. If Regalis had required amount of money, he would do something with xbox porting in SCP:CB. If not... then.... Lets continue work until the full version release. I'm still thinking if porting SCP:CB into Xbox is interesting... NOT.

But that would be illegal!

What if all the money that Regalis gets with the game in Xbox is sent to donation?

It wouldn't be much money, since you could get it for free on PC, he would also have to spend a lot of money for each update.

^This. Welcome to Microsoft. Where you make money off of every game on the marketplace in the most below-the-belt fashion.
If there is
any remote possibility that it'd even be considered to be sold, or even permitted to be sold by the SCP founders, the most money to be had is in iOS. Yes, there are still those atrocious fees you see on the Xbox Marketplace, but there is a much larger amount of iPods, iPhones, iPads in the world than Xbox 360s, so the fees would be lesser than the profit.
But again, all hypothetical.

However I understand that Containment Breach runs under a free license agreement therefore Regalis would have to set up some different agreement and maybe create another license for Xbox. On the xbox360 marketplace you can find an indie market whichi indie games (like CB) are there to download and play for just 80 Microsoft points (1 dollar). It'd be great for people with out a computer who'd like to play CB on their xbox. Anyone agree? I know most of you are console players but I'd prefer my xbox over PC sense you can communicate with players online while playing all these games with out have to join steam or anything like that. Add ArchDevil808 if you want to play w/ m via xbox live.
*EDIT*
I apoligize for any vocabulary mistakes I may have made. I'm using my xbox internet explorer which doesn't correct anything.
So, about that...
Regalis doesn't own the SCP objects. He didn't make them. The authors at the actual SCP website did, and let me tell you, the creative commons license comes to bite us in the arse at almost every opportunity, as it would if he tried to port it over onto the xbox. Theoretically, if we were to port it over to the xbox, royalties would need to be paid to the authors of each and every SCP object appearing in the game, which would be extremely difficult with173 as it was posted anonymously on 4chan in 2007.
So, yeah.
Not gonna happen.
