Really worried about the game I'm worried about the prices.

I'm gonna guess that it's gonna flop pretty hard. I might have to eat my words though.

GFWL is a nightmare, any PC gamer will tell you that. It is one of the most hated and broken distribution services known to man. I don't care if they have games exclusive to GFWL marketplace, I won't buy them.

they won't even make a dent in Steam, nothing beats steam, I mean 80-90% deals you can't get better than that, hell free games also, can't wait for their insane Black Friday deals.

Games for Windows Marketplace is gonna suck just like GFWL.

M$ has already ruined their image with PC gamers and they will never get that respect back.

All the games they have are cheaper on STEAM so why bother.

The only reason M$ is doing this is because they see STEAM making a fortune on the PC and MAC so M$ wants to once again play follow the leader.

I'll stick with STEAM because they never abandoned their gamers unlike M$.

STEAM = WIN
M$ Marketplace = FAIL
