One of the cool features of Microsoft Xbox consoles is the Xbox Live online gaming service you can access from the console. A similar online gaming service for PC gamers called Games for Windows Live is also available. It supports online multiplayer gaming, offers amazing Windows live chat support, and provides many other options and features.
About the Xbox Live online service
Xbox Livewas launched back in November 2002 for the original Xbox console, and has been updated from time to time for the new generation Xbox consoles like Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Leave a reply Windows Live Support Help
If you are a hard core gamer, you know what “Dark Souls” represents – pure, non-stop, ultimate entertainment. Again, if you are a hard core gamer, you know what it means to play a game which is a buggy mess – it is pure torture. Some say Dark Souls II is hugely unplayable, let alone up to the expectations. Various windows live support forum and Steam forum threads are flooding with complaints about it. There have also been questions regarding the continued support of “Dark Souls” (predecessor of Dark Souls 2).
Dark Souls is highly infamous for the difficult-to-absorb game play. The game is terrifying with its sadistic traps, death penalties and many punishing systems. But, it is the hardships that make it a great game for some. The more you try, the more you learn to get a hang of the whole thing. Dark Souls 2 has the same style as the original, but made significant quality-of-life improvements and also simplified mechanics and systems in the game. As far as the game and gaming are concerned, Dark Souls 2 – like its predecessor – assumes (most of the time) that users can figure most things out. This can get irritating if you are new to the Dark Souls experience.
Windows Live Support Info
Now, coming back to the problems, the main issue reported by many is one where Dark Souls 2 crashes up upon Start up. Some others say their pre-order bonuses aren”t showing up, their controller is incompatible or not being recognized, and that keyboard and mouse functionality is broken. Now, the problem is, we do not know exactly whether these problems are isolated issues exaggerated by vocal users or something truly widespread. But, the folks at Namco Bandai (the game”s publishers) have taken it seriously; if not, they would not have requested gamers to post their outstanding issues (if any) on Dark soul 2″s Steam Forums and Windows live support forums. Regarding the questions about continued support of Dark Souls I, they clarified that that the game will be fully functional on GFWL. They also shared the best way to contact the support team regarding issues.
They have listed some of the biggest issues and the ways to fix them. Players can even report the problems directly using the contact links given.
The company will be releasing patches to fix various issues pretty soon. Some users may not be tolerant enough to wait. For them, there are some work-arounds that can make the Dark Souls 2 gaming experience flawless.
