Microsoft killing Games for Windows Live store on August 22nd

Microsoft is shutting down its Games for Windows Live marketplace on August 22nd. In a support note on the company's Xbox site, Microsoft reveals that its Points system and PC Marketplace will be closed, meaning Games for Windows Live users will no longer be able to purchase games. The client software will be unaffected initially, so previously purchased games and content will still be available for customers.
