does that fuel work on windows 10 considering how old is it?
You can see this screen:
On a quick look, try the first two links below which says it just requires 2 files that are small for download. Put in the game executable folder and it works. You don't need GWFL installed at all which would be the best way. neuter GFWL from FUEL, b/c almost all issues with FUEL on PC are caused by GFWL. Otherwise the others mentioned would require finding a GFWL (Games For Windows Live) install that works on current Win 10 either from another game or internet. And if that doesnt work....What do you call a deer with no eyes?
No Eye Deer
....Probably why its $200 on key shops, noone wants to deal with the getting to run problem :ROFLMAO:

Fuel (2009 Video Game) : Asobo Studio : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Fuel underground info. PC version.

For beta testing purposes, I have installed and runned this at ryzen 7 - rtx 3600 - 64 gb ram, Game run ok at PC.

played 5 minutes, uninstalled and pc version is not my cup of tea. it runs ok and for some of you its nostalgia (understandable) but game is 3.6 gb etc
So your expectations should not be like 200 gb crew motorfest, forza horizon 5 etc. it will be repetitive, and primal..

it has widest area of kilometers in all around racing games but no visual content.

for collectors it can worth millions I just commented of what it is for me and If it runs at PC

Thanks for taking time to do that. :) You used the original games for windows live cd, but he was talking about the steam game from a key activation which apparently if you install fuel from steam, you'll get a "missing xlive.dll" error message. This means Steam no longer downloads/installs the GFWL client for you and the fixes it seems bypass needing to install GFWL at all while still allowing saves, while older fixes were just trying to get GFWL installed to run it. I dont have the steam game to try myself but that fix should work...or can try the download presented but thats not official from codemasters. Also I wonder if you installed another GFWL game before as that is basically what fixed it for some people also before the GFWL bypass fix came out. Just also trying to help since I dont even have the game. I'll just go back to playing my spider man and japanese to english translated famicom games :ROFLMAO:

I dont have Fuel at steam but yes I have installed and played many GFWL games at steam, I read community pages and search from google.
But as I remember we should be careful about bypassing anything old version, not all people at Steam or web is trustable and not all steps that community tells you will end up good. I believe If we want to play something really bad at PC and its a pc version of a game, we can do it, sometimes its painful and you almost give up but If you want to play some game really bad and If it is playable by some people, than Yes, its doable.

Destiny of an empire for NES (Nintendo 8-bit system) for those wondering: Destiny of an Emperor - Wikipedia

Tenchi o Kurau II - Shokatsu Koumei Den (Japan) is the sequel to that for the japanese famicom (nes). You can get the english patch for the japanese rom here and then patch the japanese version to english. Tenchi o Kurau II: Shokatsu Koumei Den I still have a lot of those kind of games in my backlog to play eventually as they were in japanese only at the time. Its really cool to find many now in english mainly from fan work, as well as obscure old japanese computer games that were later translated.

A few companies know this and now release some previously good japanese only games in english with improvements. Theres a free demo as well.
LIVE A LIVE on Steam
I found it as just Destiny of an Emperor II, does that translate into fucking something "school"?

I got Heaven And Earth Is good - Jurisdiction of the School when I tried separate and gibberish jap title: name of the school when I tried combined :LOL:

Turd!!! Your needed.

I have Live a Live Demo in my log and on my wishlist already. Actually most of my wishlist seemed to be remakes or remaster's at this point :ROFLMAO:
Here's one either for your virii drive or rom drive
I haven't even loaded my PC since the first game I don't think 😅

I'm in the middle of finding a lawyer and trying to file court documents myself in the meantime that I've never done before, life is a backlog right now. Bookmarked though.
does that work on windows 10 considering how old is it?
I've had no luck personally trying with every trick I could find, including asking support at EA and SecuROM.

It seems to work (you can play the demo I posted here awhile back), but also seems it can't be registered. At least by every means I tried. Prolly still need a software hack.

Doesn't run properly on Win10/11?
I've it on ps3 I bought it for few bucks at Gamestop. Fun game with huge map
Already answered above.
:( I'm very sorry for this
I was young dude, I'm long over it by now. It sucked, but such is life, ya know.

None of that works :LOL:

Windows Live Launcher fails to Install and SecuRom fails to register it, the only way to load it offline with the hack is through the Live Launcher...so its a catch 22.

SUPPOSEDLY STAR WARS™: The Clone Wars - Republic Heroes has an updated GFWL package that works on Windows 10...and it may not be the only game that does, MAY solve the problem if you had that but I'm not sure how outdated that game update information is either, since GWFL tries to download from Microsoft and fails--it would need to be a local installation made for W10.

The simple fact on this one is it needs a hack...the server to register the second game key is offline. That DRM nightmare we all dread with Denuvo. Ironically the email for SecuROM leads to a Denuvo based email and I never got a reply. Thats one way to make your DRM look like a death trap before it even is.

I actually stopped hunting for Dirt 2 because the Demo works for me but I believe it has the same registration base as this game. I'd rather have 2 courses on a demo :LOL:

The ONLY method I haven't tried is overwriting the game exe with the demo exe, someone has said this works...but I wouldn't trust the Demo exe from another source on my main drive.

You can't download the demo once you have the full game and I'm terrified to remove the game from my library to download the demo because I might lose the key.

EDIT:

If Pax is willing to spare one of those keys, I'll try to remove it from my library and see if the fix will work will the demo game and steam will let me add the game back to my library without the key.

But I'm not risking it unless I have a way to add it to my library again.

Other than that I've tried everything under the sun...AdrianFreeman has the demo running though with no issues.

I have no arguments here...and if he looks for collectors its a different story, as someone who just wanted to play the game with steam controller support...I figured I'd drop my experience as well. His keys ARE good, I can vouch for that ;)

EDIT:

EA told me after 3 emails they were working on a fix like the game was new and needed a patch...I laughed and didn't go bother going back to support over it :ROFLMAO:

Dude, how long have you been doing this? :ROFLMAO:

Wow, thats fucking funny.

This brings up a curious question...did you know each other from AWA before they came here?

Actually no, but I saw Megumin in FGF on reddit before I saw him in AWA.(y)

Wow, thats fucking funny.
I know:ROFLMAO:, but like I said if the answers there I'll take it (really like the hints too)(y). If it's working properly, I'm happy and don't bother with it(y) since there are many things that can go wrong very quickly at AWA😂. Till now, the answer's usually got something to do with space or related to it👾🚀🌌☄️, but a few weeks ago the answer was Neutron.🧠
Google is not my granny 😒 lmao
