Microsoft drops fees for GFW Live multiplayer Wed, 23 July 2008 Now everyone can play!
![]() Gotta love the online freebies Publishers, developers and PC gamers used to have to pay to use GFW Live for their games, but will now also be able to have access to Microsoft's matchmaking services and GFW Live's Gold membership features at no cost.
"While gamers could previously get free access to GFW Live through its Silver membership, the service limited players to a one gamertag, single-player only achievements, and more. Players who wanted the features contained in the Gold pack had to pay $7.99 a month, or $49.99 a year. By giving players these options for free, Microsoft Entertainment's devices division CTO Chris Satchell said the movement would "…improve Windows gaming."
But these are not the only bonuses, as Microsoft has also announced a new redisigned user interfact and updated Marketplace, giving gamers access to free and paid content, such as demos, movies, trailers and more.
