Games For Windows Live VS Steam

 Why ORIs are also so complicated???
Don't know what the hell I'm talking about??
Well....

bought my birthday present yesterday...yap my sweet birthday present..
happy birthday to me~
happy birthday to me~
happy birthday to me~~
happy birthday to me~
 (its a game cd, if you don't know what you looking at)
 and for the Intro
Steam

its a PC game distribution platform thats created by Valve around 2003 for their games
As years passes by, they started to offer other games to be bought there...
ranging from 2k games to EA....
what they promise are simple...
A SINGLE ACCOUNT, UNLIMITED COMPUTERS~
meaning you can play at any computer, with your save files bring along..
that is their Steam Cloud..
you can play games on computer A, then move to computer B and download your save files, and continue play there.
They also offered community, friends...and groups, even voice chatting in the background...
they have been called the best distribution platform for PC GAMING for years...
The only issue i have with Steam, that you don't have a solid copy..i want to collect those boxes..
Games For Windows Live

Microsoft's answer to Steam  actually not, its just a moved platform from their XBOX 360 to PC, they so lazy..
Why i say like that? because when you login, it asks for "XBOX LOGIN" 
DAMN THAT MICROSOFT, dont believe it?? see this...
its a PC game distribution platform for...9 games?
and what they sell..cannot be paid by credit card..but by points..
damn you again...
it also have friends, and free downloads, and also let you move your save files around
(they copied from Steam, everyone knows it)

AND I HATED THE DAMN GAMES FOR WINDOWS LIVE!!!

and till now... i can't seem to get that game running...

Problem No.1
first it tells me...i need login..FINE..i login
and it keep telling me i'm not old enough, and need parents....=.=
WALAO~
i made another account just to cheat that parent thing...

Problem No.2
Then it say i need to update the game..I don't want and kicked me out of the game..
I OWN THE GOD DAMN GAME...and you don't let me choose i want to update or not..

Problem No.3
I start played the game on Offline profiles last night, since i don't want to update...
and i enjoyed the game...
And today, i want to change the profile from offline to online by just adding my email..
and then IT ASK ME I WANT TO UPDATE OR NOT...
I click "NO" and it say that update fail...and i lose all my save files...
WALAO...
I played so long last night....

Problem No.4
I decided to let it update....
and waited for hours..
and getting a error message that say it updated fail...
=.=

Problem No.5
I still don't know when it will finish..
it just show a BLUE BAR....
and its downloading, installing...or what..i have no idea..
Proof...


I have a great experience with Steam last time, when i bought COD:MW2
and GFWL(short form for Games For Windows Live) totally sucks...
Steam is less complicated, then this...
and it tells you, whats the speed of the download...
and everything else..

And now...still waiting for that damn UPDATE...
I HATE YOU GAMES FOR WINDOWS LIVE~~~

I specially went down to Midvalley to pick my copy..
and its damn frustrated to know that ORIs are that complicated...
BUT....I still want to support it...
2K made a great game...and again... they deserve it...
XD

I have GFW live for RE5 too, and it is also driving me crazy. To think that it was a RETAIL COPY; paying more to have this malware ruining the game! I should've bought it from Steam.
