Wow, that's a lot of quotes. I've never had any GFWL issues either, but obviously many people have had issues. No need to pretend like GFWL is perfect.

Has SalsaShark mentioned his corrupted saves again?
Have I marked off everyone's agenda yet?

McLovin said:Its not a multiplayer game, the only time you really see it is the first time you log in and when you get an achievement. I had that on Batman AA and I completely forgot about it, stop being babies and get the damn game.
Well it did for me. I couldn't update the game or get this free DLC or map pack or something (at least I think that is what it was).Templar Wizard said:yeah, it REALLY messed up the first one... oh hang on!
Murkas said:I remember losing Gears of War 1 saves when all I did was update it (for like the second or third time) and redeeming my Gamertag (again, for like the second or third time), it's a horrible service that's a pain to run.
I just don't understand why companies go for GFWL, yes I can see Microsoft paying them to but wouldn't you actually save more money by releasing it on Steam and get more customers?
In that instance, you'd run into the possible issue of WB not having Rocksteady working on the sequel, which doesn't sound like a good solution.Derrick01 said:This is more reason why SE/Eidos should have bought Rocksteady after AA took off. If they had then this game would have been using Steamworks
lololSho_Nuff82 said:The roller coaster this game has been on is fairly amusing.
WB: We're releasing a sequel to what many consider the 2009 GOTY, with bigger levels, more villains, and better graphics
GAF: That's good!
WB: But we must warn you, the game contains pre-order DLC.
GAF: That's bad.
WB: But the DLC are skins from Batman Beyond, Batman TAS, Batman 70's, and The Dark Knight Returns.
GAF: That's good!
WB: The skins are all exclusive to individual retailers.
GAF: That's bad.
WB: But we've also included Robin!
GAF: That's good!
WB: Robin is also DLC, and a cagefighting dudebro.
GAF: That's bad.
WB: The PC version will be the definitive version.
GAF: That's good!
WB: It will use Games for Windows.
GAF: ...
WB: ...LIVE.
GAF: ...can I go now?
Heavy said:Never had a single problem with GFWL and, apparently, I'm not alone. Here are some posts I've compiled from the previous thread and this one. It seems a lot of people have no issues with it so it's not a case of us being "lucky" as some have said. Sorry you lost your saves or whatever but, hey, we didn't! I like GFWL and am now 100% going to purchase Batman because it's using it, when previously I was wavering 50/50 to wait for a sale instead. I'd go as far as saying there's almost an equal amount of people who have posted they haven't had issues with GFWL as there is people continuously bashing it, which is interesting because normally it's the people with problems that post about it and the ones content don't care enough to.
For me, personally:
Bulletstorm - 10+ hours
Virtua Tennis 4 - 20+ hours
Bioshock 2 - 10+ hours
No issues whatsoever. Must be a sorcerer.
Guess we're just lucky? *shrug*

Hey guys, GFWL doesn't suck. Only half of our users have problems with the service.Heavy said:Never had a single problem with GFWL and, apparently, I'm not alone.

^ I had to post this one first because of the improved graphics comment lol

Interfectum said:You really took the time to quote all those people?
It took all of 6 or 7 minutes to find and copy/paste the quotes as every quote was from just these 2 threads about Batman.onken said:That's a whole lot of effort right there. MS's PR department must be proud.
Htown said:Here we go again.
If there's one thing these threads continue to show, it's that:
People that primarily game on Xbox 360 love GFWL.
People who actually spend most of their gaming time on PCs fucking hate GFWL.
So which group do you think is right about whether or not it's a terrible service on PC?

Fair enough.domlolz said:It's not that straight forward, I game mostly on my PC and I don't hate GFWL, probably because it's never pissed me off that much. Despite that, it doesn't really add anything and as far as I know could be dropped from most of the titles that include it so I'd rather games were released without it even though it won't affect whether I buy a game if it is included.
I created a new account for AOE: Online. My old tag was something Like "GFWLisHORSESHIT"Stallion Free said:I changed my GFWL name to Stallion Free (I couldn't stand it being my old one so I just sucked it up and paid the fee) and it made new folders in each game under that name and pretended my old saves didn't exist because they weren't in that folder. I had to manually copy said saves over for each relevant game. Sooooo ghetto.
