It was only on the GFWL store, you can still download it if you owned it before the store was shut down. Doubt you will be able to find a unused retail version now. Shame as it had more content then the 360 and a shed ton of mods which adds all the extra modes that 2/3 had, also a shed ton of other mods. People still play online as well, not many but you will normally find at least one match.
They should release it on Steam imo, but m$ would never allow that I don't think.

my most favourite game of all time - admittedly I only ever played it on the xbox - but oh my, 19 x 1 minute rounds of Raven Down was a glorious experience
Just buy the used retail version from someone. It uses the old GFWL serial number system so if it has used up its 15 limit of activations then you just buy any other retail GFWL game for £1-2 or so & use that serial number instead as up until 2009 you could do this until MS closed the loophole.

Yes, was going to suggest this.
I have a Viva Pinata key which would activate GoW, no problem.

But can this be played on local coop like the xbox 360 version could?

PC version does not have local co-op just online co-op.
5 extra PC only levels.
PC Level editor
3 new MP Maps
DX10 Mode
Online is still active to this day easy to get matches still. Lots of cheaters though !
GFWL on this uses the old DRM system which means you can use any GFWL key from another GFWL title from this era so just buy another 2007-2008 GFWL title for a few £ then GOW PC-DVD version will work just fine it has a 15 activation limit (the online digital download version uses online Securom DRM & needs a special key only available if you bought from GFW Marketplace before it closed down).

Me and brother would do the story together, not play online but looks like if there is no offline coop then would need to get the online part working...
Seems a right ball ache..

People have modded over the extra game modes from the other games, Beast mode etc. They even did all the skins as well from memory. Still get players online, in fact if someone was to setup a game I would be up for it, love this game on the PC.
Its easy just invite your brother within the GFWL guide button you can even use the same GFWL key each!
