Now that Games For Windows Live is gone, how many of the games have patched out GWFL?

I've recently tested Bioshock 2 in PlayOnLinux and it works!

I have a few other games from the GFWL list but of course not all of them.  Who wants to help research and re-test some of these games to see if they patched out GFWL?

I have:

  • Fable 3
  • Fallout 3
  • Bulletstorm
  • Bioshock 2

Here is a list of games on steam forum:  GFWL

Yeah. I have looked a bit, and I don't really see anyone taking about it. That would be sweet if they just worked now.

Exactly, I've had problems with any GFWL game in PlayOnLinux.  If publishers or developers want to keep selling their game, they need to patch out the Live service and DRM.

Then there is a chance it might work in PlayOnLinux again.

I have tested a few of these games with the xliveless Wine or using the xlive.dll

Fallout 3 works fine with these, but games like Bioshock 2 and Bulletstorm didn't.
