The update addresses the Games for Windows – LIVE update issue (which I posted about some time ago) as well as fixes some various performance issues. So if you were curious – there you go. Have fun!

I just finished hanging out with hundreds of hardcore Windows gamers at the NVIDIA GeForce LAN 4 event in Alameda, California. I was only there for a handful of hours, and really before things truly got started (most people start showing up after work/school), and would be very curious to see how things develop over the next 48 hours, but I at least got a taste of what they going to be up to.
The event lasts for two straight days, with food and drink provided as well as air mattresses for those not hardcore enough to power through. Attendees got a copy of Crysis, and many of them were playing it for the first time on their own rigs that they brought in. NVIDIA also had some demo stations set up playing Crysis on super high-end machines with dual GeForce 8800 GTX cards in SLI – pretty stunning stuff.

I just wanted to let you guys know about two more Games for Windows titles hitting store shelves this week. It’s pretty exciting to see some of these things hitting stores finally. After drooling over “Crysis” for so long, and playing the heck out of the graphically lucious demo, I’m really looking forward to getting into that nano suit and taking the game through its paces. Also, “Kane & Lynch: Dead Men” comes out today, and supports Games for Windows — LIVE. Sign me up for some more Achievements earned with mouse and keyboard!
Here’s the mail we sent out to folks today. Enjoy!

We’re back! Nelson will be arriving Monday to bring great justice to our podcast, but for this week you are stuck with us. We’re going to be trying to look into the future 1 week so that if I continue to edit these shows late, and get them up on Friday, you guys still find it pertinent.
For those who have Spike TV, the show Game Head will be having a heaping slice of Mass Effect including a HAWT sizzle trailer (Semsey told me to spell hot like that). The show is on tonight (Friday) at 1am!

Today is a great day for Windows gamers! Gears of War finally ships on Windows today, with full support for Games for Windows — LIVE and, with Windows Vista, DirectX 10! The game retails for an MSRP of $49.99, and for that you get five new campaign chapters, a new “King of the Hill” multiplayer mode, three new multiplayer maps, a robust game editor, and incredible high-res graphics that take even the Xbox 360 visuals to the next generation. Plus, the game is packed with all the content previously released on the Xbox 360 – seven multiplayer maps and the “Annex” game mode.
You’re probably anxious to play, but wanted to let you know of a small problem (fortunately, with an easy fix). When you first play Gears of War for Windows, an automatic update to Games for Windows — LIVE will be downloaded. But after the update is downloaded, you’re [...]

One of the great benefits of working for Microsoft is the opportunity we have to work with people in other parts of the organization. The Games for Windows team worked very closely with the folks running Windows client PR this past week, as we participated in an event that showcased not only great consumer uses for new services launching for Windows Live and Windows Vista in the coming months, but were also able to talk about the great things we’re doing to make gaming easier, safer, and more fun.
Now, if that sounds like marketing speak, you have to forgive me. I’ve just spent the last three days in New York City talking to press about the Games for Windows brand, what we’re doing with Games for Windows – LIVE, and showing some screenshots of DirectX 10. Why, you ask? Because we’re still telling the story about how we’re [...]
