None of the Halo games after Halo 2 and the Gears of Wars games after Gears 1 made to the PC. The newest Killer Instinct game is not on the PC and the re-release of Perfect Dark that was on XBLA never got put on Steam.

I love Minecraft, but MS owning the franchise worries me.

The word is if the deal goes through, and they aren't even confirming they're in talks yet, that they'll continue to support all three platforms of Minecraft. PC, Xbox, and PS.

Sure, "make your own story," but why? You can't do anything but build crude blocky structures.

It does to have an End. It has an entire world called The End where you fight Endermen and the Enderdragon on platforms made of Ender Blocks.

END.
