How to get GFWL to open in Batman: Arkham City

So as you may know I bought Batman Arkham city! The only problem was that Games for Windows - Live didn't work or open up in game.
I got it to work though! So if you are experiencing this problem as well this will be a tutorial on how to fix it!
First of all I'm running Windows XP SP3, so this might only be the solution to people with this problem on this OS.
1. Locate the directory of GFWL: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games for Windows - LIVE\Client
2. Open either GFWLive.exe or GFLWClient.exe
3. If it opens successfully, that means I have no idea what your problem is. It shouldn't open and instead give you an error box saying that you need Windows Live Sign-in Assistant. Click OK.
4. Download Windows Live Sign-in Assistant and then install it.
5. If it installs then success! However, for me it never installed but rather the installation ended prematurely. I had no idea what the problem was. As I was looking around for the solution to this problem I came across a Windows Update fix. Last year my computer got a virus and windows update was turned off.

 

This icon would always appear on the taskbar next to the other icons. Even when I turned automatic updates on through the control menu, It still wouldn't actually turn on.

 

It would always show the Automatic Updates in the Windows Security Center as it was Off. Right now I have it on as I got it fixed.

To do this go to this website and follow the instructions (clicky).
6. Once you have inputed the follow command into the run prompt. It should say that it has been resolved.
7. Automatic Updates should now be on and working! Now try installing Windows Live Sign-in Assistant again. This time it should complete and work.
8. Now Games for Windows - Live marketplace should work and open when you open it. And it should know appear in game!

Hope this works for anyone with the problem running on Windows XP SP3. This is just one of the solutions. The one that worked for me! Enjoy!

Nightwing DLC - Batman Arkham City

The trailer for the Nightwing DLC pack for Arkham City came out yesterday. It shows Nightwing in action with his combat style and gadgets along with his animated series skin and he comes out with 2 new challenge maps. Nightwing will be available on November 1st for download ($6.99 for PS3 and 560 MSP for XBOX 360).

Batman Arkham City Released Today!

So.. Batman Arkham City came out today for the XBOX 360 and PS3!!

SWEEEET!! I loved Batman Arkham Asylum. That was one of the best games I’ve ever played and made me a much bigger Batman fan :D

Unfortunately for me, I don’t have a 360 or PS3 so I have to wait for the release on WINDOWS, which doesn’t come out till November 8 (EID!!). I was thinking of pre-ordering the game a couple months ago but the PC version didn’t get Robin as exclusive pre-order package at Best Buy. But then… -__- to my surprise when I checked back a couple of days ago.. there he was.. ROBIN! Available for the PC version when you pre-order from Best Buy. The problem here was.. IT WAS SOLD OUT DAMMIT!! Then When I messaged them on Facebook and they responded and they were restocked! I was gonna buy last night but I didn't have a credit card and my debit wasn't being accepted. I checked today.. and BAM! Robin is no longer available for pre-order :(

Oh well... I guess I'll just have to DLC it. Also Nightwing is apparently going to be DLC for the PC version as well. So sweet on them for letting PC gamers get the little extra goodies as well has the console versions (cause usually PC gets shit).
