    Chat/play with friends?

    If you want a system that allows you to chat with your buddies and join games they are playing and such, try Xfire.

    I wish Microsoft would pay as much attention to the PC platform as they do the Xbox 360. :(

    I really hope that Gears of War 2 and Fable 2 will come to the PC later this year. :eek:

    I think id like to see Halo 3 too with more extended features and of course improved graphics.

    Also add the Street fighter 4 to that list :)

    Street Fighter 4 is confirmed to come to the PC in 3rd quarter of 2009.

    http://www.videogamer.com/news/street_fighter_iv_pc_coming_this_summer.html

    Its good news since we can play it at both a desk or hook up our PC to a HDTV or better yet, play it on a laptop for on the go fun, that's what I love about PC gaming, its so flexible!!! :D

    I would like more console ports to come to the PC.
