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. |
I thought GFW was simply a label. I don't think I've seen a new PC game at retail without the GFW label for the last year or so.
As for Fallout 3 and GFWL, I'm thinking it was because MS wanted to push GFWL as a service and probably organised something with Bethesda. Not sure what the advantage to MS was unless they felt some sort of threat from other distribution systems like Steam.
