I saw this in a system broadcast message. Doesn't really concern me either way, I find I'm using X-Fire less and less. I don't think it was as big as it once was.

I don't think they will shut down X-fire though. Over one million users sign into X-fire everyday. I would say it is still pretty big and there is plenty to profit from.

X-fire is simply the best gaming and communication program around. It would be sad to see it go under. There are other substitutes but none have as many features or are as polished as x-fire.

lmao I had NBA Jam for Genesis. That game wasted so much of my time. Along with Vectorman and marble madness lol.

Vectorman was the shit. I used to play that game all day long. 

So basically you want a BF2 clone with better graphics? How is that fun? Other than the vehicles and mods BF2 is possibly the WORST shooter Ive ever played. The hit boxes and shooting mechanics are - for lack of a better term - broken, if I can sit there and get 3 straight head shots on some one with ANY GUN and not kill them, the game is flawed. If they made a game with a similar play style as BF2 with the shooting mechanics of say COD4, that game might be worth my time. And you do know that developers can optimize a game engine to run its best on each platform individually right?

No. I want a game that won't be held back by a shitty game console. That is all I want. if it is possibly the worst shooter you have ever played, you have not play many shooters.
yes, they can optimize it, but will they? They didn't do a good job with BC2.

@spanky, EA announced that there will be a beta key included in every version of Medal of Honor limited addition.

I just hope they announce that the PC version will be different.

[uninformed]I have a basic understanding of what you guys are saying but I would have never thought it out unprovoked. Just gonna throw that out there before I ask this:

I've heard nothing but negativity about BF:BC2 on the PC. I played the Beta on the PS3 (thanks Sniper... I think it was you), and I really enjoyed it. Could it be said/argued that - although I agree with PC superiority - the console versions for such games as BC2 are more critically acclaimed or better? Meh, I'll throw some tags on this post.[/uninformed]

I own BC2 for PC and love it. It is a good game. But it is a console port and considered not a legit entry in the Battlefield series by most PC gamers., this is why- Battlefield is supposed to be about huge maps with a lot of players. BF 2 supported up to 64 players ,and if you get a mod you can go beyond that. But instead they gave us BC2 that has a 32 player max, no lean, no prone, terribly optimized for PC, and no mod tools.  Battlefield 2 is one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time. It has sold more than BC2 would ever dream of. Everyone expected battlefield 3 to be a PC exclusive designed to be the best FPS ever, instead we get this multiplatform shit.

Also, to throw this out there, the PC version of BC2 has sold more than the 360 and PS3 versions so it's not like the console versions are the only thing making them money.

But if it wasn't for the success of the Battlefield series on PC, DICE would probably be bankrupt. The least they could do is make Battlefield 3 with an engine specifically designed for PC and then port it to consoles, not the other way around. They need to remember what made them a big company, PC gaming.

Remember when DICE promised that they were working on BF3 and that it will "blow us away"? Apparently they meant console owners. The limited edition of Medal of Honor is coming with a Battlefield 3 beta key, for PC, 360, and PS3. Well, looks like consoles got the best of DICE. I guess we won't see a true sequel to Battlefield 2.  :'(

They don't group kids in huge numbers to be social they do it to save money and it fails. I've nothing more to say in this thread as I usually avoid people with cotton's attitude.

Lol.  I was fine, still am.  Just little fuckers like killaman gotta come along and fuckin troll like a mother fucker.  It pisses me off.

And no..  I'm still not agreeing with you Spanky.  High school is not only to "teach" you things for later on in life (like a job) it's more to teach you how to have a social life.  But I guess you wouldn't understand what a social life is..  Sorry, I guess I brought this up on the wrong forum.

Rage much? I'm not trolling, I brought up valid points. I'm done with this thread. Good luck with the rest of your life though, you can't just sit on your lazy ass forever.

Maybe when the economy wasn't tanking. As of now most companies throw away most applications that do not have a college degree.
