it's not working though.
I just get a black crossed out circle thing.

Why can't they just let you type the number in? What if your list was miles long... how are you supposed to drag a game from the bottom to the top?

edit
lol, I don't know how I didn't notice this stuff before - I can't even remove an item from the wishlist!

Oh geez, I just read you need at least ten games in the list before you can have any functionality, other than adding games.

I'm off to add stuff

If it doesn't work though, it will be even worse, as the newly added games automatically go to the top.
The ones I'd like to win are already on there, so they would get pushed down!

edit
Didn't work, haha

They need to get that sorted.

I added a few games to my wishlist, though probability of winning is so slim it borders on impossible. Is it for people who buy something during the sale only?

You don't have to buy anything, but you need a list.
It only lasts during the sale.

Now it's Viva Pinata, for 99 cents.

I keep missing the first couple of days of these Daily Deals then wonder what they were.
At least I already own Deus Ex.

The GFW client is so fucking terrible. I still purchased three games (and I mean, one is Shadowrun lol) from them but holy shit! Horrible.

What's horrible? It's very barebones, but if it had search function it'd be pretty decent.

Sure, if you can even get it to work. The client fails to even install on a lot of PC's. I downloaded Shadowrun a few days back and the game wouldn't even launch! I had to do this to even get the game to work:

http://forums.gamesforwindows.com/t/14172.aspx

Which seems to be a pretty common problem since they're discussing it all over the damned place. It's one fail after another.

It's also slow, and very poorly sorted. You can't search, sort, or even see what's on sale. There's a good reason they're practically giving away games. That's the only way to get people to use it.

Ah yeah, it must suck to have these problems (I've never encountered any issue with GFW though). My main gripe is the lack of search function and lack of any games over there, I'll never go to GFW looking for a game because a)I can safely assume it's not there b)even if it does, finding it is troublesome.

Yeah, I haven't run into a problem like that yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did.
Number one problem is Microsoft using their damn .msi installer method, which is terribly flawed.

And their client. sheesh. There's no consistency or integration and, as szaromir said, it's very barebones; it isn't even Aero aware!
It just feels extremely unfinished, hogs RAM, and takes a long time to start up.

I usually just extract the cab files from the games it downloads, then install/backup from that.
At least that's one less thing I need the client "taking care of" for me.

They should get the Live Essentials team to work on GFWL.

They should just man up and support other online retailers. Microsoft always has to do their own thing, even when a perfectly viable and extremely popular platform already exists on Windows.

nevermind, it's not the hi-def version.
How disappointing

If you haven't played it, though, you should get it anyway. It's a damn fine game.
