Aeropause has an editorial about the lack of value in the Live for Windows initiative.
"So looking at this, users have been asked to pay for a $50 membership to Live for two games at this point. How does Microsoft think they can pull the wool over the eyes of so many PC players? For someone like myself, that has a Live account via my 360; it is not a big deal as I get access to both systems for the same price. But if I did not have my 360, I would be asked to pay $50 to play two games."
Remember the days of four-player couch co-op? The Wealth of Geeks team certainly does. This list brings us back to the golden years of the original Xbox with the best four-player games that were available.
BLG writes, "There are many fantastic and iconic weapons in game history, but some are significantly more memorable than others. When we think of iconic game weapons, these are the top 20 that come to mind."
You forgot one and it's a doozy. The weapon is kindness in undertale. :) defeats countless enemies.
As the long-rumored Gears of War Collection looks like it may finally materialize on Xbox, the timing could not be better as Gears 6 and movie news swirls.

All jokes aside congratulations to all the gears fans it will be a blast I remember having fun on the first one on my 360 elite till got RROD and quit Xbox all together but that’s a story for another day.
Congratulations 🎊 🍾 🎉 🎈 🎉 🙏
I'm excited for this just aslong is on the pc also cause I don't have the newest xbox console.
thats MS for you
Online gaming started out free and should be so..I hate they way they have it set up over there at MS you pay to play online and alos there are micro transactions for extra content...and on top of that you are already paying for that internet connection you got...thats just my MO
The only thing worst than a Sony fanboy... is a sony fanboy that is stupid to understand the service he is writing about...
"But if I did not have my 360, I would be asked to pay $50 to play two games"... uhh... no..
Let me try to make it clear for those stupid sony fanboys are still not getting it.
Xbox live Games for windows cost $0 if you want to play online... cost nothing... nada! You are free to play against any PC gamer... you are able to send messages to any xbox live user (xbox 360 or not)... you are able to send messages, you have achivements, etc.. .all for free...
Now, if you want to play cross-platform... example.. you want to play xbox 360 vs PC... than you have to have a gold account... since xbox 360 requires gold account to play games... get it?
Currently PC gamers not using Games for windows can't play against xbox 360 gamers or any other console for that matter... so it goes down to ... if you want to play against xbox 360 gamers you have to pay $50...
Now, honestly I think it's dumb to do so... what PC gamer will pay to play console gamers? So, don't keep the service free... don't play console gamers..
Now, if you have already an xbox live account.. because you own an xbox 360.... you already have a gold account... so.. you can deside where you want to play your games... and you get to have achivements and single login account for the PC or the xbox 360.
Well ya thats the bladestar we have come to know his total fanboy self sometimes he neutral when he is low on bubbles just to get more but when he has bubbles he's his regular self
Live for windows really is a big scam. The PC is an open platform and MS shouldn't be trying that kind of crap on the PC users. They are smarter than that.
