    I'm a big fan of games that have integrated voice chat, but I can't find a list of them anywhere. So I thought I'd start a list of the ones I do know of and see if anyone can add to it.

    Dungeons and Dragons Online: Stormreach (only in groups)
    Battlefield 2 (squad only)
    Battlefield 2142
    Everquest 2
    World of Warcraft
    Lord of the Rings online
    Star Wars Galaxies
    Dungeon Runners
    Second Life
    Source Based: Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike, Half Life 2, Left 4 Dead, etc.
    GTA IV
    Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare
    Call of Duty World at War
    Jumpgate Evolution - June 2009

    Upcoming Jumpgate Evolution will have integrated voice. Stuff like Ventrilo and Skype and even Xbox Live are easy workarounds though.

    True. But if you don't actually know anyone that plays a given game, integrated voice can save a good deal of time.

    You can add Counter-Strike: Source and Left 4 Dead to your list.
