ITT: games that are unplayable now because of outdated bullshit DRM

what do you mean unplayable? what happens if i buy this on steam?

FUCKING

Wait, you can't save?

How can it still be sold on Steam if it has such an issue?

Because he's lying.

It's a giant issue on the steam forums, at the moment most people cant launch the game

So, there're no game-breaking issues with GTA IV if I get it from Steam?

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK Sup Forums

Guess I'll have to go to the steam forums and see which of you faggots is trying to ruse me.

There's a reason why it's only got a "Mixed" rating on Steam even though it's a fucking GTA game.

And that reason is that it's a shitty port.

There's been a dll file you can download that bypasses GFWL for forever. And the game doesn't have Steamworks either so you can put it into any folder and not have to have Steam running to play it.

What?

I can live with that. What I wouldn't accept was if I wasn't able to save the game.

>never bought this on steam but forgot why
>see it on sale for $10 and buy it
>remeber that it was because it came with securom
>shitfucks at valve won't refund it because I bought it too long before refunds became a thing

PSA: RockStar made a patch very recently that removes GFWL officially and fixes a few number of bugs. Google it, nigga.

I've actually played it only last month and had no issues whatsoever.

>game hasn't needed social club since 1.0.6
>xliveless removes gfwl and also acts as asi loader awesome mods

I have it on disc.
Can't play on W10 because of fucking securom.

fuck this fucking bullshit just tried to launch the game, you have to have a "social club" account, a windows live account, binding them together or with google or whatever this is so fucking confusing after you typed so many email adress and captcha and passwords, fuck this shit.

You'd think that people who produce this type of games wouldn't pussy out like that when porting their fucking games to PC just out of fear for pirates.

Why would you even want to play this garbage?

BEEG AMERICAN TEETEES, COUSIN

Really wasn't that hard to figure out what he was saying. The only problem was lack of punctuation.

Just press cancel on the Social Club screen. You don't need an account. Then use Xliveless to bypass GFWL and save locally.

i used my friends steam account to install the game and had such an issue either just starting the game or saving that i uninstalled it and pirated it because it was much easier

you don't even need that last part, a guest account on GFWL allows you to save locally

Fuck around with the trainer and gravity gun.

GTAIV physics are incredibly fun. Literally the only thing better than in V (Cops are more fun to fight in IV too), but its so enjoyable that its worth reinstalling occasionally to play with.

Just use Xliveless to play on PC. As easy to install as copying a file inside a folder. It's a simple .dll that removes GFWL from the game and lets you save offline.
