&lt;p&gt;Copy and paste the 360 achievements, port over 360 pad support and intergrate the interface.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also it should be cheaper than developing for other services:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;There
are a total of 5 API calls to get the Guide up and running and the code
interacting with the LIVE service is almost identical to Xbox 360 code.
Over 85% of the APIs are identical between Xbox LIVE and Games for
Windows - LIVE. If your title has an Xbox 360 SKU, the investment to
implement Games
for Windows - LIVE is minimal. In fact, using other online gaming
platforms
will result in an increased risk and cost.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Petition To Make Games For Windows LIVE Branding Mandatory</title><link>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/thread/74873.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 04 Oct 2009 08:16:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">782f0328-ac1c-461b-acb0-308da95964ab:74873</guid><dc:creator>N00bberry</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/thread/74873.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=6&amp;PostID=74873</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/Themes/wgfcommunity/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Reaperman911:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First thing Im going to do when the 3.0 update comes out is launch every single one of my games and run them for 5 minutes before launching the next one.. JUST TO PROVE I bought them all. No point in being labeled a pirate. &lt;img src="http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/emoticons/emotion-15.gif" alt="Geeked" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thats being fixed with version 3.0. Its going to be interesting to see which users here all of sudden stop getting LIVE games, when in the past they were getting all of them. &lt;img src="http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/emoticons/emotion-43.gif" alt="Confused" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;LOL I can imagine how many posts there will be regarding that issue. &lt;img src="http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/emoticons/emotion-11.gif" alt="Cool" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because it is getting serious. It is 1 year old and if the bug is not squashed soon many people would use this method. Plus it is not new.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m aware that it&amp;#39;s been going on over a year, what I meant to say was that many people would flood the forums saying, &amp;quot;that their Games For Windows Live game says the key is invalid.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That would be hilarious. Seriously pirates has no right to complain when that happens instead if they like the game they should support the developers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Petition To Make Games For Windows LIVE Branding Mandatory</title><link>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/thread/50508.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 04 Jul 2009 05:58:24 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">782f0328-ac1c-461b-acb0-308da95964ab:50508</guid><dc:creator>Hohahohi</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/thread/50508.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=6&amp;PostID=50508</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/Themes/wgfcommunity/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;EpicScroll:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Actuallyy, I think it would be funny if Microsoft made it so every game released for PC after a point had to be GFW. Except that might increase Mac sales. And that wouldn&amp;#39;t be good for our money hound, now would it? But I agree COMPLETELY.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t think that would happen, because I&amp;#39;ve to the Apple Store and saw all the games for MAC. The only games that got my attention were Call of Duty 4 and Need For Speed Carbon. All other games were boring or I didn&amp;#39;t care for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
