They let down almost every single gamer using the Windows Live client for PC's (it was shoddy), they're switching off those servers entirely in 2015 (because they willingly let the service stagnate) and their store has no way for Steam, Origin and uPlay to have their clients on the Windows 8.1 OS - instead they're going to bombard you with a thousand $2.99 games that can be bought on a whim on the Microsoft store. They haven't cared since the desktop market started to shrink because consoles and casual gamers are more lucrative.
