Games for Windows Live belongs there. When that service went down took a lot of online games that depended on it with it.

  Huh, I didn’t realize they ended that.

    I mean sort of? They still offer Solitaire and Minesweeper on the store, but they're games with an annual fee to remove the ads. Which is utterly revolting, of course.

  It's a common misconception that Microsoft closed the Games for Windows Live service. Basic features still work: https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/help/games-apps/my-games-apps/games-for-windows-live-support-faq https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/help/games-apps/my-games-apps...

    Regardless, there are many games on Steam that depend on GFWL that require herculean efforts to get to even run because they're looking for API endpoints that no longer exist.

  They killed solitaire.
