I'm not too familiar with Games for Windows - Live, but I'm assuming that there is no Marketplace available on the PC.

For games like H2V, you wouldn't go to Marketplace to get new content. You would most likely download the content from the Internet, like getting maps for Halo: CE PC off of http://www.halomaps.org.

At least, I would assume that that's how it would work. You'd think that MS reserves Marketplace for console downloads.

EDIT: As far as your Gamer Pic goes, you just have to worry about the one that's on your current gamertag. XBL gamertags won't be carried over to identify you in H2V.

So, when I recover my Xbox Live Gamertag through my PC to play Halo 2 Vista, people will see a different Gamerpic? Because last time I checked, Windows Live is supposed to be integrated with Xbox Live and it will give you one universal Live account across both platforms, so wouldn't people be able to do something as simple as to see your Gamerpic that you chose on your Xbox?

Slaying noobs since 2007.

Pretty sure it is integrated, but you could always go to Xbox.com and manually change it, you have a very limited choice though.
