   1. GTA IV
   2. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II
   3. Colin McRae : Dirt 2
   4. Street Fighter IV
   5. Fallout 3
   6. Bioshock 2

   9. Halo 2
  10. Resident Evil 5
  11. Batman: Arkham Asylum
  12. Red Faction Guerrilla
  13. Gears of War

  15. Fuel
  16. Universe at War
  17. Battlestations: Pacific
  18. FlatOut UC
  19. Quantum of Solace PC
  20. Section 8

Well, let's see....Halo 2 PC and Gears of War PC are STILL being played here on G4WL? Really?!?!?  :o
So, Microsoft - looks like you guys probably could bring Halo 3 and ODST and Gears 2 here - and it'd probably sell well, if this here popularity contest here is any indication of anything.

Wow @ Shadowrun PC on the list...never expected that.

That would be more interesting if that wasn't pretty much every GFWL enabled title of note.

Also Halo 2 isn't all that surprising. The PC is the only place to play it online anymore (other than fucking around with tunneling software).

On the PC and G4WL, yes - especially since the FPS arena is VERY crowded on here and there's a lot of great ones on the market, to say the very least.

EDIT:
Hmmmm...on 2nd thought, you can get Shadowrun and Halo 2 for the PC both VERY relatively cheap, these days and age. Plus, most people w/ Vista and Win 7 can probably easily run those two, as well. Yeah, that might help matters, come to think of it...

EDIT #2:

Hey, Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is missing from the list. :P
