Man, Games for Windows Live really isn't working out the way they figured.
It's becoming clear it was a trojan horse designed to sell 360s or 360 games in addition to just being an annoying piece of bloatware.
The client is super-fukkity, I don't understand how it got that bad.
It started out that way. I'm now convinced it was so people would try to use it, decide PC gaming sucked, and go buy an Xbox. Assholes.
I hear Valve is launching a new version of their framework: "Steamworks but GFWL doesn't"
I'd play 360 games on my PC. That would be sweet.
I doubt this is true.
same. Not very realistic.
I would love to see MS start to integrate their shit like this. I bet developers would love it too.
Won't happen. Zune will be rolled up into a generic MS Music/movies but there is no way they're combining PC and 360 in any way. The 360 group has needed to become it's own company for the longest time. The best thing they can do is distance themselves from MS and Windows. The system doesn't sell because it's the Microsoft 360, it sells because it's the 360. They've been pretty good in keeping the MS role to the back burner. Why would they even allow people to play a 360 game on the PC? It would cut into hardware sales. They make money of of proprietary bullshit for the system. They would be retarded to cut that revenue out. The only thing I see it panning out to is them ditching GFWL and rolling out native XBL across the Nextbox, W7 phone and the PC so you have a synergy between the 3.
