Cross-platform Games
Quote:
Enjoying cross-platform games between Windows Vista PC and Xbox 360 is just so easy
The community you’ve come to know as Xbox Live is expanding, and your exploits as an Xbox 360 gamer are about to get richer too. With the advent of Windows Vista for PC true cross-platform gaming has become a reality. Long awaited games that include FASA Studios’ futuristic fps Shadowrun will spearhead the list of great titles that connect Xbox 360 gamers with friends using Windows Vista PC. This will all be possible via the world’s first and best unified entertainment network, very soon to become known simply as “LiveÃ¢à ‚¬ÂÂ.
Whether you’re a hardened gamer or a casual player, the advent of true cross-platform gaming via Xbox 360 and Windows Vista PC is a revelation. With great games such as Shadowrun and the family favourite card game UNO, Microsoft is further pioneering the future of digital interactive entertainment.
Playing compatible cross-platform games via Xbox 360 and Windows Vista PC is simple and easy, plus all the benefits of Xbox Live are shared between them. The arrival of Windows Vista means you’ll only ever need one “LiveÃ¢à ‚¬Â identity to benefit from everything the network has to offer. Achievements will be common to both Windows Vista PC and Xbox 360 games, as will Leaderboards and the ability to communicate across both platforms using voice chat, text and picture messaging.
Exciting news for gamers playing Halo 2 for Windows Vista PC is that Achievements are available to unlock for the first time in Halo on any gaming platform. And because the game also supports Live, Windows gamers can share their accomplishments with a community of over five million people.
The “LiveÃ¢à ‚¬Â network is rapidly expanding to include more digital devices, so you and your friends will never be far from sharing the very best in games and entertainment.
