Microsoft Preps Games for Windows Live Update

In anticipation for the holiday season, Microsoft plans to release version 1.2 of Games for Windows Live next month. The program enables PC-based games to tap into Xbox Live, and a number of titles including Halo 2 and Shadowrun fall under the brand.

The 1.2 update will bring a number of bug fixes, along with user interface improvements, support for offline Achievements, and the ability to see if you can join your friends in a game. According to Microsoft blogger Brandon LeBlanc, the Redmond company can update the Games for Windows Live elements just as it does the Xbox 360 Dashboard.
