| As some people may know, that Microsoft has a gaming client on PC called 'Games for Windows Live'. http://www.microsoft.com/games/en-us/live/Pages/livejoin.aspxIt uses the same gamertag that you have on the Xbox, and it gives you achievements. The client allows you to text persons on your friends list aswell as having a chat with them, however not the party feature. Did you know that you can get a game for free on it aswell? It's called 'Tinker', and its a puzzle/strategy game and give you a good time while doing nothing. Its only 60mb so it fits on any computer, and it doesnt require hardcore performance. http://www.microsoft.com/games/en-US/Games/Pages/tinker.aspxBut another game that you pay for (about 15$) called 'World of Goo', its probably one of the most fun I've had in a long time on a PC game, and it's crazy addictive. It's about the Goo balls, and their struggle for world domination. http://www.microsoft.com/games/en-US/Games/Pages/worldofgoo.aspx | |

| Blixt ou stole the post I made several months ago. Oh noes. But anyway I hear it has loads or problems. But I have ynot experienced it for myself. But getting achiements using the same profile is cool.
But as the BLACKbusterCritic told me, no one uses Games for Windows-Live! | |

| Kendo....
*sigh*
-BBC isnt a real PC gamer... He doesnt really know too much about the PC. Just by talking to him, you will noticed it after some sentences.
-There is no thread on this forum about Games for Windows Live (try searching for it).
-I have loads of friends playing on GfWL, but more on Steam.
-I have not experienced any quirks on the client, in fact i have experienced more on Steam.
When it comes to your gaming knowledge, you should try for your self and not get "bullied" around by BBC. But currently you are his puppet, and he is your puppeteer.
Try for yourself, its free.

| World of Goo is a great game. Speaking of free games, for anyone that uses steam or someone who wants to check it out there is a free game called Alien Swarm which is pretty badass available still. It has 4-player Co-op and is worth checking out for anyone who hasn't yet. http://store.steampowered.com/search/?term=alien+swarm | |
