Is GFWL not available there? Dark Souls' multiplayer is entirely reliant on GFWL.

Have they announced this? Or is this just a guess? I'm interested.

It uses Games for Windows Live. If that works there, he should be fine. If it doesn't, he is out of luck. He / you should Google first to be sure.

Yep he can, I own it and im from Argentina too.

No problems with online nor anything

Dark souls being locked here was just because we got GFWL support latter and it wasnt retroactive to already released games.

Just change your email address country on setting to United States, Mexico or something and it works

Dark Souls isn't region locked, but steam is what it is and some regions don't have some stuff in their stores. As long as GFWL is supported in his country, he can play it if you gift it to him.

Just don't use VPN. Try steamtrades, somebody should have keys from previous Amazon sale lying around.

GFWL may be a problem if you want to play online.

I am from Argentina and i own DarkSouls. I traded a copy with someone here on SG on the Summer sale. I beat the game and used the online features without any issues, although i already had a GFWL account. Still i don`t think there will be any problem.

Argentina player here too. Definitely works if you gift it to him or if he buys it from somewhere else.
