This is something ive noticed on a number of newer games since i got Vista64, I like to alt tab to chat in IRC and messenger.

CoD4, The Witcher and Settlers VI can all be alt tabbed out of while in game without causing any problems providing you dont do it on a loading screen. If you know any other games that this works on let me know!

I haven't found any games that you can't temporarily get out of by using ALT+TAB. That's not a feature of the game programmer, it's part of Windows for switching applications
