...but I don't see any new release or anything special, probably why I don't see any new tweets or anything from microsoft about it. I was hoping this would coincide with a fable3 pc release but oh well, why do I bother looking forward to anything good from GFW.

The PC (Personal Computer) is a highly configurable and upgradable gaming platform that, among home systems, sports the widest variety of control methods, largest library of games, and cutting edge graphics and sound capabilities.
Well it's the 15th and the new games for windows site is up...
I've got Halo 2 and Gears of War on the PC, and they both play fine. I've never had any crashes, personally. I like the Xbox integration, because I've got more friends there than I do on Steam. Games for Windows Live is just fine, if you haven't played Viva Pinata yet, I highly recommend it.
I'm a ps3 and pc gamer and I was hoping that they'd add Halo 2 to GFW when they relaunched the store so that I could play through it, it seems like a missed opportunity not to. It can't take that much resources to simply set it up as a digital download for cheap and put it out there for people to buy, free money. but it's nice to see fable 1 on there, I think I'll buy it again cause I don't want to deal with the discs I bought all those years back and I'd like to finally finish it.
is gears of war 1 worth playing through the single player?
Then again I don't trust games for windows live and won't use their service over steam.
I liked Gears of War PC, but the save game bug really annoyed me.
Yep picked up Bioshock and Age of Empires 3.
Microsoft has succeeded in getting their client on hundreds of thousands of systems, regardless of all the moaning and criticism of the service lol.
I have a disc copy of Gears and it doesn't run on windows 7 64-bit. So whatever magic they used on the GfW version, I sure wish that they would send it over here...
Anyway, today and yesterday's deals were awesome, which is at least enough for me to say "good on ya microsoft." However I hate buying games without a disc, so unless they feel like uploading awesome games for idiotic prices again, this hasn't exactly blown my mind.
