Key points
- Installing the Windows Live application is mandatory to install the game but not necessary to run it.
- Retail version owners can use the LIVE key to activate the Steamworks version. Also, the LIVE version is available to Steam version owners who miss the features removed during the transition to Steamworks or who use mods incompatible with the Steamworks version.

Split screen mod
- This mod enables split screen coop in the GFWL version, which was left hidden in the code of the game. While it is only playable with gamepads, it is possible to use a keyboard via PPJoy.[4][5] This mod is also included in the versus mod mentioned below, making this mod obsolete.[6]
- Split screen is impossible in the Steam version because the code was removed. However, there is a way to revert to the GFWL version by following this instruction.

Issues fixed
Issues with Games for Windows - LIVE
- See Games for Windows - LIVE Issues fixed.
- As of Steamworks update, game does still require GFWL components to be installed so users are able to import their save game data and achievements, even though it isn't used with main game.
- Launcher errors, such as
res = 1, err = 0x0000007e
andres = 1, err = 0x00000012
, are GFWL related and is possibly linked that there's no GFWL related data found.[9] Game should still work normally,[10][11] but as window requires manual closing it breaks full controller compatibility and may get irritating.
