| Wow! Thanks for sharing that link. This is amazing. It's downloading, I used 10 of my left over microsoft points.  Dang, this game was only released on 8/6/2010 Seriously, it's still £25 or something on Amazon, so like over $30 in US. To get it for under %1 of that price is phenominal | |

To your pc (though it's connected through your gamertag so you can buy it with 10 microsoft points) but it doesn't require any decent graphics card to run. If you do encounter issues, just reduce the graphical effects in the options. Then the worst thing you'll encounter is the occasional dip in framerate when you have lots happening on the screen. I'd highly recommend even if you don't plan on playing it much because you're effectively getting 3 decent large single player games + online multiplayer too. | |

| OK its downloading, but I have an Acer Laptop. Will it run on that? (I remember you, DW , posted a picture of your game set up and its the exact same one, will it run on that?) Its asking me to input "product key" and it can be found on the back of the box. WUT? | |

Its asking me to input "product key" and it can be found on the back of the box. WUT? Yes it runs fine on my laptop. I can't have the highest graphics settings but I can still run it. In fact, I could probably run it on fairly high graphics settings but I'm using the lowest possible graphics for the best framerate. But yeah, you've got nothing to worry about. The product key is provided. Look on the left hand side of the downloads screen, where it's downloading. It has "activation key". | |

WUT? http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/ To be honest, I became reliant on that site for a while but it turned out to be pretty darn inaccurate. It says I can not run a game all the time yet quite often I actually am able to run it. | |

When I click on "retrieve game keys" is says "no key assigned" for both the "game activation" and "LIVE access code". And the install seems to get stuck at 17%. . . . | |

Same for me, Ive contacted live support for help. Hmm.. This did not happen to me. If live support don't get back to you or you read this before they do, I'd recommend going to the settings, changing the saving location (where the game saves to, just in case there's no space or some random problem), also cancelling the download and restarting it with nothing else running other than GFWLive. Make sure you also have a solid connection and um, as for the key, can't you just click it and get another one or something like that? | |

| Ok ive done the GOOGLE search. http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/t/15700.aspxFrom a Live Tech Team Member"Due to the overwhelming success of the Age of Empires III sale, we have temporarily run out of keys to unlock the game. You can still buy the game at this amazing price and you will get/see a key in the next week. When new keys are added to the system you will be auto-assigned a key, there is no need to call support or take any other action from your end. We will post here on the forums when the keys are available and the next time you click 'View Game Keys' for the game you should be assigned one.
Thank you for your patience and we hope you enjoy the game."Hold on to your hats fellows it will come there  | |

| Ah lovely stuff. Now hopefully my Laptop can run it. I used to play AoE II on my PS2 for hours and hours. (I know what you PC gamers are thinking right now, "an RTS on a console, ROFL") | |

Offcourse they did, and it worked. You see this created a "shopping spree" that makes people want to look for more deals on GFWL in the future, therefore selling a good game for insanely low price is a good strategy by MS. | |

I reckon that "accident" where Fable 2 was free for a day was also intentional. Come on, shortly before the release of Fable 3 the game is for free? Come on... it's gotta be done on purpose. | |
