I never understand why people have so many problems with GFW. I've used it on several computers, works great.

I will admit I did have an issue when updating once. A simple solution was going to GFW.com and downloading the GFW software.

This was my experience on trying to play Batman AA recently, it's far from an uncommon one-

Its not important that I hear your exact experience. I haven't had the same experience you have, it works fine for me.

I've used it on several machines with XP, Vista, and 7 as well.

It's also not important that we hear your experience. The truth is there are thousands of complaints about GFWL, possibly a lot more.

There's a reason why GFWL is on it's death bed after 3 and half years it's launch. You have to wonder how much MS respects PC gamers when they tried to force us to pay for using GFWL, one of the worst DD services on PC.

Why should PC gamers use GFWL, when there are dozens of better DD services on PC? And it's not just Steam, but also Gamersgate, Impulse, Metaboli, Gametap, etc...

Well I'm not the one going on tyrade about GFW. The masses aren't having the same issues.

GFW is hardly in the death bed. They just haven't put much effort in competing with other download services. However, just this year they added a bunch of games and are getting more support from major developers.

Bear in mind MS has ungodly amounts of money. If MS can compete with the likes of NIntendo and Sony, I think its safe to say they can easily dominate Steam if they truly desired.

Edit: I believe you and I have discussed GFW before. I've said before its just a matter of time before GFW gets off the ground and starts becoming a major competitor. Looks like its starting to happen even sooner than I expected.
