Will XBOX LIVE players be able to play with Windows/Mac users?

Are XBOX LIVE players going to be able to play with Windows & Mac users? Is that ever going to happen?

i thought not xbox players only with other xbox users

That would be cool, but... PC or Mac users would have an advantage to the xbox users. They have a keyboard and a mouse, xbox users only have a controller with limited turning rate compared to the mouse which is nearly unlimited. So I would think it will never happen for a FPS game, although a strategy game would seem reasonable

I think unreal tournament for dreamcast allowed PC players to play with DC users, correct?

maybe quake u mean?

I have been using xbox live sense release...and I have been following it well and the answer to that question is no. I am 98% sure.

nope, it was unreal tournament..wait, or maybe it was quake 3...hmmm, wheres the bio sludge cannon from?

the bio rifle, UT2003

naw uh, it was out for dreamcast way back wheb..ahhh man it's gonna kill me if i dont figure this out, i bought it, it was either qake 3 or unreal/unreal tournament..it was called the biosludge cannon..and this was dreamcast so i don tthink it dcould be UT 2003...

think you're right Charged- Unreal Tournament for DC could be played cross-platform online (i'm 99.216% sure)

but no one's done it since

and agree about the KB+mouse adv on the PC (no monkey-thumbed controller can compete)
that and all the connex and graphics tweaking would lead to a mass slaughter of consolers.

not that there's anything wrong with that

It doenst matter if it was Quake or UT...both games suck anyways

that's kinda odd, cuz when it was out for DC, i know that i played a buddy of mine on a pc, and I literally slaughtered him and some of the others playing...hmmm, and if X-BOX live did come out with a mouse/keyboard(which im sure they do) it might be somewhat competitive

if u buy phantasy star online for the xbox it has a mailin thingy for a xbox keyboard and mouse....biatch!

there was a quake 3 arena pack on fileplanet that allows all PC players to have the DC maps and let them play againt the DC users, That would be cool to both kind of players

not at all, though quake 3 had a nice and powerfull engine in those days UT is an awesome game with multiple gameplays modes besides a incredible SP level map pack ...
