Apparently, not enough people to fuss Microsoft much anymore. But I still disagree: Microsoft would not have bothered to make GFWL if it didn't get something out of it, even for retail releases. My guess is that they charge the publisher for the services it provides: I believe Steam does something similar. I have not heard any authority to the contrary, although if anyone can produce such I'll cheerfully admit that I'm wrong. |

"We have a new UI that's consistent with the way Windows gamers want to interact. It's free to you as a developer, and we're reducing the technical requirements."
Though that wasn't the source I was trying to find. Well maybe I'm just mixing it up with GFW...
Anyway why had Fallout 3 GFWL in the first place ? I mean they could have easily made it a GFW title.
