#Microsofts "Games for Windows"-tjänst har fått ta emot en hel del skit på sista tiden, mer än vad den förtjänar tycker #id Softwares Tim Willits. Han menar att tjänsten må ha barnsjukdomar, men att det är ett bra initiativ som kan rädda PC:n som spelplattform.

Some people say it's a little too Big-Brotherish, but it's a legitimate progression of making the PC feel more - not like a console, but like a closed system.

For us, if there's a way to link a Live account into your security for your game in a nice closed system, it would help reduce the piracy, which kills us, and is killing the industry. At least Microsoft is doing something, and I think that they're in a position to do it.
