hmm, i tried one of the first beta's of xfire back in feb time i think.. it seemed okay, the only thing it had over msn at the time was you could see where the people on your contact list were playing. I didnt keep it installed for long as no one else was interested hehe, sorta deteats the point when everyone else is using msn. Since then they have had loads of advertising via 'leet' gamers using it etc and that sorta put me off for some reason.

mm the new version looks quite a bit different, rather OTT on the skin, could be a lot smaller.. if anyone wants to give it a try my username is jimb

ooh you can change the skin, thank god for that

i really liked Xfire when i tried it, its just that no one uses it?

Well i'm currently running both msn and xfire.. see how it goes, as we've said it depends how many people try it.
