    Exclamation Hurry ! name new Games for Windows dashboard

    Microsoft is asking for your suggestions on what it should name the new Game for Windows dashboard, which is relaunching sometime this autumn (see pics on the right).

    Alongside the news that Games for Windows LIVE would become completely free, MS also committed to a PC Marketplace with demos, trailers etc., through a stand-alone piece of software. Apparently, it's have trouble naming it...

    When we announced that Games for Windows - LIVE was completely free, we also stated we’d be bringing a Marketplace with demos, trailers, and downloadable content to your Windows desktop through a stand-alone client piece of software. This software will start with new downloadable content, but expand and improve to provide a greater level of interactivity as time goes on.

    We have some ideas on names, but we figured it’d be fun to get some thoughts from Games for Windows players.. The survey below is your opportunity. We’re listening *.

    If you could name the Games for Windows - LIVE software client for Windows PCs, what would you choose?:

    Games for Windows - LIVE Dashboard
    Games for Windows - LIVE Portal
    Games for Windows - LIVE Marketplace
    Games for Windows - LIVE Guide
    Games for Windows - LIVE Client
    No name, just call it “Games for Windows - LIVE”
    Voice your opinion here.

    Choosing the name of the client Games for Windows LIVE

    To find it also has its place in the mutation known as video games on PC, Microsoft announced last July, a move to "free all" of its service Games for Windows LIVE. On the model of its Xbox 360 counterpart, the PC version was even receive additions such as the famous marketplace where there are demos of games of course, but also trailers and exclusive content.

    If all this is not yet right away, things are moving slowly on the side of Microsoft that attempts today a "seduction" from the community of players. We actually asked to give our opinion about the name that will take all of this service. Of course, this survey does little, but we are offered a choice between different names (Dashboard, Marketplace, Portal, Guide, Client) even propose our small idea. So if you're interested, go to this link to make your vote count.
