So the PC version *is* an attempt to put GFWL back on the map:

downloadable "exclusively" through Games for Windows Live Marketplace


Wonder if they'll do this with any other franchise

So not at retail? Does this mean they're also trying to fight piracy?

I don't think so.  I don't know much about GFWL's DRM set up, but if it's anything like Steam, then it wouldn't matter how you bought it.

I do know that like Valve's games and others that include Steamworks, GFWL titles require GFWL access whether they're bought via retail or GFWLM.

I'm not particularly interested in the Fable series, but I am interested in the fact that Microsoft is returning to the PC. I wonder, does this show a shift by MS back to the market it abandoned, or...?

Too bad this series have reached it's peak with it's second iteration (one of my favourite games). But on topic, Fable III on PC was a long rumored and it's not surprising at all, if Lionhead want's to fullfil it's sales forecast, Xbox alone won't do it. Too bad it's using that shitty Windows Live.



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising

Wait, I thought everyone who wanted Fable had an Xbox already?



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.
