Xfire thread

Featured Replies

I have been seeing alot of PSN/Gamertag/console threads and think there needs to be a PC version.

 

 

 

Basically Xfire is gaming MSN/Yahoo messenger etc., it shows what game you are playing and the server that you are on and can join them with a simple click. Mostly all games are supported even Runescape (I think you need the client for it register though). It also acts as a useful tool, a pretty good server browser with the ability to record vids and take screenshots ingame too.

 

 

 

So yeah, add your xfire names to this thread and you can create an account if you are interested.

Ignore my hobbies/interests/about me/blog, I wrote that when I was 12. And ignore my friend at that, they're a bit...Strange.

 

Add me if you want, I probably won't talk much. Combat Arms all the way? (Lawl at how all the ads on Xfire are screaming COMBAT ARMMMMMS right now)

I despise Xfire. The downloads can take days, and I have yet to get something that has worked on Vista. I much prefer Steam.

What are you talking about? The Xfire updates take a few minutes for me at most and it works perfectly for me on vista, only an annoying UAC pops up when I open it.

I think he means downloading games and stuff through Xfire. Which isn't the point. The point is a chat service, as well as giving the ability to launch and track games. Anything that can be downloaded with Xfire can also be downloaded off Download.com or Filefront, most likely.

CSS

 

Garrys mod

 

BF2

 

Cod4

 

 

 

And some obscure other games.

I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

 

OPEN WIDE HERE COMES THE HELICOPTER.

I only just started with Xfire a few days ago, and I only have one friend, so anyone feel free to add me, "philzeke" :D

 

 

 

I've only played RS with it so far, but I'll be playing some Diablo II and StarCraft too. Oh and I also figured out how to get Xfire to detect SwiftKit as RS ::'

[insert birds flying in a circle here]

Yes, that sig was annoying.

But I can do all of those things with Steam, which I had long before Xfire. The only thing I use Xfire for is the Spore Creature Creator Demo, and the reason I got Xfire in the first place. The reason being that I am writing for a Machinima, and I'm talking to the director through the Xfire chat.

You missed the part that the games xfire overlay works for is limited. Steams isnt.

Recomend you dont use that to contact me tho .. *Stares at brad*

Xfire name is Langzor, I usually have it as my primary mode of contact while gaming since Steam takes too long to load on my PC. Usually playing CoD4, BFME2, WoW, CnC3: Kane's Wrath or TF2. And sometimes SOLDAT.
