We want a Cross-Platform Link Between PC & Xbox 360

Now read first you negative nancy's:

I've posted a forum topic just like this on xbox.com and have been told already by a few players that this is not enough. But it never hurts to try. Hopefully the right person will read this between now and the near future and do something about it.

Those of us who support the idea of linking the PC & Xbox 360 gaming worlds together (cross-platform) have changed our gamertag mottos to "Integrate PC & X360".

There are already a lot of us, but it's not enough. And I have no idea whether or not it will even help anything, but I'm just being honest when I say that there are a lot of us who are tired of not being able to play against the same people on console/PC that are playing the same titles anyway. They did it with Lost Planet, why not all 360 games?

Changing your motto will not achieve anything. I am in favour of cross platform play but pc players will probably have the advantage in most genres due to keyboard and mouse controlvitriolboy

That's not true. I am a PC gamer and I own with the 360 controller. but im not here to talk about skill. This topic is to draw in information about this. So if you have anything that "WILL ACHIEVE SOMETHING" then post it.

Well my contribution is to say that this thread "WILL ACHIEVE NOTHING"

therer already are a couple of games that do this and therer will be more i dont see the point to start up a group for because although some games are good for cross platform not all are. Idk about you but i dont want to play gears 2 against a pc gamer who running it at over 60 frames using a mouse and keyboard.Gen007

Agreed. With the 360 it comes down to your connection because the tech is on the same level. However, on the PC, you'll always have that idiot playing the game with a PC that can barely run the game, killing the game for everyone. A few games would be alright for a cross, but not all of them.

=(. Can't a guy have hope anymore?

You guys can say all you want. And all of your points so far ARE RELEVANT. But it doesn't hurt to try. So I'm going to keep this forum going.

Even if the motto thing isn't a good idea, this forum is. I'm just hoping that the right information or the right person stops in here.

There have been a few attempts to get this started through Windows Live like Shadowrun, but the evidence this is failing is MS taking the step to make it free for PC players. It should have been that from the start, since PC gamers expect online play is free, and really the only PC players that used these cross platform titles were people that already had Gold accounts for their 360.

People using the PC versions would have massive advantages over consoles, not just because they use keyboard and mouse, which is much better for FPS and RTS games (so far the 3 cross platform games have been FPS and RTS), but also because PC players can edit config files to either enable macros or create other shortcuts to make gameplay easier. For instance in Shadowrun, while 360 players are limited to picking 3 skills, players on the PC version can configure other keys to enable them to use all of the skills whenever they want.
