#REDIRECT [[Games for Windows - LIVE#List of games using Games for Windows - LIVE]]
{{ii}} List of games that feature [[Games for Windows - LIVE]] integration; some games have been migrated to [[Steam]] (see [[#Games for Windows - LIVE removed|Games for Windows - LIVE removed]]).
 
{{ii}} If you bind an [[#SSA Titled (ZDPP specially marked)|SSA key]] to an account that is not in a supported region you will lose the key (and, consequently, access to the game).
 
{{--}} Players outside the [http://www.xbox.com/LIVE/countries Xbox LIVE Countries and Regions] must use a [[Games for Windows - LIVE#Creating a local profile|local profile]]. Local profile support is listed beside the game when known.
 
 
 
==Activation details==
 
{{ii}} There are two kinds of GFWL activation, [[#SSA Titled (ZDPP specially marked)|SSA]] and [[#Legacy Titles|Legacy]]. See the sections below for further details.
 
 
 
=== SSA Titled (ZDPP specially marked) ===
 
{{ii}} Server-Side Activation (SSA) binds the product key permanently to your Microsoft account, similar to Steam. These games have no activation limits.
 
{{ii}} If you bind an SSA product key to an account that is not in a supported region you will lose the key (and, consequently, access to the game).
 
{{ii}} Some SSA games have Zero Day Piracy Protection (ZDPP), an extra DRM check to prevent playing pre-release games.
