Games for Windows - Live
Hey,

This website is pretty cool. There are a couple of BUGS that should be fixed. One issue, that I noticed, is I have Fallout 3 for PC, which uses Games for Windows - Live. When I play it, the website shows it has the XBOX 360 version instead of the PC version.

Because GFW uses LIVE, gDNA's system sees it as an Xbox 360 game. At least, I think that's how it goes. I believe they're working on the issue. Ever considered Xfire or Steam?

Yah this is what they have said in previous posts. I think it's really a lot to do with microsoft and less to do with gDNA.

There are a number of games that use Live that have GFW and Xbox 360 versions. Live doesn't specify which version is being played, so when gDNA automatically goes to check your Live gamertag to pull the data for what games you've been playing while signed into Live, the auto feed that is created assumes you are playing the 360 version. It is an issue that the staff is currently working on to fix so that GFW versions of games show up as they should.

Fallout 3 is a tough one because there's no distinction between Fallout 3 and Fallout 3 (PC), at least, that's as far as I'm aware.
