| | cross platform gaming Word has it that Vista came out with being able to play with xbox 360 users. When will this happen? and also will you be able to do it with the current game titles, such as GRAW and GRAW2 that is out for both platforms? Halo and Halo2? Prey? Or when this happens, will they make games specifically for this? |

| | Re: cross platform gaming Not yet. Windows Live Gaming is still in Beta, but the game would have to support the Live feature, either native or through a patch. Halo 2 should include it. The PC version includes everything the XB360 has, and can even use the same Live subscription and gamer cards. Not sure on an exact release date on the Windows Live Games, though. -- Dustin Harper dharper@vistarip.com http://www.vistarip.com -- "Balthazor" <Balthazor@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8852CB43-07B0-41C7-BA58-008BBF44BA01@microsoft.com... > Word has it that Vista came out with being able to play with xbox 360 > users. > When will this happen? and also will you be able to do it with the current > game titles, such as GRAW and GRAW2 that is out for both platforms?

Halo and >Halo2? Prey? Or when this happens, will they make games specifically for this? The only game that has been announced for cross platform play is Shadowrun. None of the existing games will, including Halo 2. -- Andrew, contact via http://interpleb.googlepages.com Help make Usenet a better place: English is read downwards, please don't top post.
