Street Fighter IV embraces Games For Windows Live, achievements for all

The good news is that you'll be earning gamescore points and enjoying multiplayer for sure, that bad news is the GfW brand still doesn't have 'cool' street cred.

That could all change though when Capcom's PC version of Street Fighter IV shows up and injects some much needeed volatile celebrity. At least PC gamers don't need to pay for online matches anymore...

That's something to shout about, right? Has Games for Windows Live given you reason to cringe, or do you rather enjoy the Xbox Live style of connectivity and such?

Personally, I have no problem with LIVE. It's unnecessary, even if you love having achievements, but not hinderance - unless your internet goes down and then it's a pain in the RAM.

Personally I don't like GFWL. It is a service that are a dreamed up need, not giving you that much extra unless you are a sucker for show off your achievements...
If you have to be logged in to play the game on your own, alá Dawn of War 2 - then this is a no buy game because of stupidity!
I'm not holding my breath, and I don't prefer Xbox live either - I'm a PC gamer of the old school, I don't need flashy crap that tingles, pingles and whirl - I just need a game and a multi player server chooser...
