Uno? That card game?

Big difference between Uno and Halo 2.

I heard something about crossplatform support for Halo 2, but then it was scrapped.

Have you looked into "Live anywhere"? Its what I believe is the beginning of what your talking about. My Xbox Live gamertag is linked to my "MSN Spaces" blog and gets updated as and when I play, this is the start. Eventually I do believe that MS will indeed allow cross platform gaming. I imagine the PC players will always win versus competitions as I would argue that they are more "hardcore" gamers, but it will be frickin fun all the same!

It will also be a good tool for Microsoft to get people to buy more 360's.

Will you ever be able to? Yes, Microsoft have said you will.

In all games? No. They are planning on keeping the Halo ones different, because console FPS and K&M FPS don't compare.

true that pc versions of a fps game is eaiser to use than the sonsole version, but thats mainly because of the mouse and keyboard

sooo all u need is a USB mouse and keyboard that can be used with the consoles.


I think cross platform gaming is not very far away.
