Paolo11's face right now
You will be able to upgrade Street Fighter IV to the Ultra version which will not use GFWL multiplayer.
Also missing BlazBlue Calamity Trigger, which I had no idea was on PC till about ten minutes ago.You're forgetting Lost Planet: Colonies Edition for online AND the achievements. There's online achievements (reaching level 100 which is GOOD FUCKING LUCK at this point unless you manipulate files/hack it) with it as well.
Games whose online facilities and achievements will die July 1, 2014--some of these may no longer be able to be activated at this point and thus will be DEAD DEAD:
Grand Theft Auto IV
Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City
Only if he has Super
Kin
Xbox LIVE v1
Zune
Windows Phone 7
Games for Windows LIVE
Sorry if you were using any of this stuff.
But buy Xbox One, please.
AoE Online is a solid game. I would hate to be one of the people who spent a ton on all that DLC, only to have this happen.
I guess we could always play offline right? Yeah, we miss out on that sweet multiplayer, but if we wanted to play single, it would still launch GFWL, just not connect...?
Someone help me out because i really want to go back and play RFG in the future again.

So Dark Souls network features are dead?
I'd email the publisher. You never know they might patch it out.
What the hell!? So what's going to hapen to the GFWL version of SSFIV AE? I swear, Capcom better patch it so I can upgrade to Ultra or I'm going to flip shit.
My damages: Batman AA, Batman AC, GTA IV, RE5, Dead Rising 2, Dark Soul, Lost Planet.
/Shrug.
Could be worse I guess. Not really into any of them. Batman games were fun, but it's not like I'm compelled to replay it. Still have yet to play Dark Soul after tutorial area, guess I'd better get on that.
EDIT: Oh, Fall Out 3 too. But filed that under Batman, not really replaying it.
They didn't even patch their GfWL client when ToS were changed, so now when you try to log in with the client (and haven't accepted new ToS yet) you just get a generic error with no explanation at all. You have to manually visit the xbox.com site and accept new terms from there.
Just saying.
Lot of fear mongering going on around here today.
That is only a list of games that are not available without GFWL. Lost Planet is available on Steam. See also: Toy Soldiers. The list is exhaustive.
Ah, missed that. Does that mean Lost Planet: Colonies will still be able to be played if you bought it through Steam?
Yeah, H Town was tellling me about that, thats some straight up bullshit.
Hey y'all, let's work on another list.
The joy of seeing something as useless as GFWL go away is sadly tainted by the thought of games like GTAIV being jacked up or straight unplayable on PC. The Episodes are my one of my most played games on Steam, I'd hate to go back to the console versions but at this point I pretty much need a PS3 for legacy gaming.
As I understand it, the version of Lost Planet 1 on Steam has no GFWL--I am not sure what the Colonies content is or if it's available.

also wish they would patch fallout 3 to work with windows 7.. maybe both at the same time?

Guess I wont be getting batman, Fable 3, Fallout 3, Resident Evil 5, and Lost Planet 2 - unless they do a patch.
Gotham City Impostors has a Steamworks-based free-to-play version, so that's OK.Hey y'all, let's work on another list.
Section 8: Prejudice's developer and publisher, TimeGate Studios, is defunct.
Thanks all, made the list code so it can be copy and pasted if needed.Gotham City Impostors has a Steamworks-based free-to-play version, so that's OK.
It's kind of funny but Microsoft almost released an entire console that would have robbed you of your games like this hahaha. As a big Dark Souls player, I am crushed.
Oh, are you saying there's nothing to be concerned with?
Don't forget the Xbox Live 1.0 shutdown.
Actually, yes. Because the service will go dark next July. That leaves a couple days for it to get figured out.
Also because there's no way a company will agree to just let their products go dark and deliver no more revenue just because an add on service goes dark.
You guys think that there's just a guy at Microsoft who will just flip the switch without maybe having a business plan to move all current titles away and working that out with the pubs and devs? Really?
