    Wait, didn't XFire already have the ability to broadcast live?

    doesn't extra software like Xfire and FRAPS take up system resource?

    PC gamers usually try to have as little background programs running as possible to have their game running as smoothly as possible....

    @icepick314: It doesn't take up all that much but the broadcasting can slow it down. With dual and quad core cpus being the norm these days, the resources used are pretty insignificant.

    @-MasterDex-: I think bandwidth would be the main concern, especially while playing an MMO or a multiplayer shooter.

    @overlordbill: Yeah, for sure. If you aren't streaming anything however, there's no issue with running things like XFire, Fraps, etc.

    For example, on an average night of gaming with my clan, I'll have my Rcon tools open, Steam running, Teamspeak up and XFire running none of which effect my performance.

    I'll have to see if there's anything interesting to watch over there. If I can hear the players during play as well it could make for some true entertainment.

    Awesome job over at Xfire, guys. Another great "block break" creation.

    @Alchemistmerlin: If your idea of gaming is only Microsoft, then perhaps. But there are other options like the DS, a PC, PS3, Wii, don't just limit yourself!

    @trogam:


    Except the Wii is the Zombified Gaming Corpse that STARTED this infection, and it is already spreading to the PS3. PC is dying of unrelated diseases, but holds out as the last bastion of hope. It's like a crumbling tower amidst the hordes of Miis, Xiis, and PS3iis.


    I can't say anything bad about my DS, I think it would come to life and beat me.

    Can someone, anyone, explain to me why they all stand like that? It's awkward, ugly, and most of all infuriating for some reason.


    Also, giving guys the option of choosing 3 sizes to small emo-fashion girl-pants just makes it worse.

    @JohnHype: I have to agree. In the back of my mind it's nagging me that I can't give him a more fitting pose. Even just standing up straight with arms crossed would work for me.


    Something other than a pose that to me suggests: "Hey sthailor."
