XFire now has ingame music - Games

[url]http://media.xfire.com/xfire/readme.html[/url] [quote=Xfire]Added the *beta* ability in Xfire In-Game to control iTunes and Windows Media Player. Press Scroll Lock + M to try it out. [/quote] FUCK YES

[QUOTE=Thomo;19452061]Why add something you can do already, you just assign a hotkey, unless people are really lazy.[/QUOTE] I am Lazy.

It's not "in game" you can just control it without alt-tab

It's still not enough to make me use it :colbert:

I see no point to this. Global hotkeys have been around for a while now.

Wow, INGAME MUSICf, that's a great thing to have.

Nobody uses Xfire

Apart from people that have never heard of Steam.

The only thing I use Xfire for is to broadcast my games. Other than that, yeah it's pretty useless.

I don't see why communities like Battlefield haven't transitioned to Steam yet. Well, the Steam Overlay is recognized by PunkBuster as a cheat program. So, when they fix that they have no reason. I've seen CS:S clans use xfire

Xfire is useful as a server browser.

I use the steam version and it kicks me every time I join a server for having some "Illegal driver/program" and when I turn off Steam In-Game Overlay it goes away

[QUOTE=ComboTroop;19452093]I am Lazy.[/QUOTE] All of us are.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;19453666]I use the steam version and it kicks me every time I join a server for having some "Illegal driver/program" and when I turn off Steam In-Game Overlay it goes away[/QUOTE] I use the steam version and I have 0 problems.

[QUOTE=DeadorK;19452392]Nobody uses Xfire[/QUOTE]I still use xfire sometimes, to take pictures but that's mostly it. I still hate its ability to rarely even pick up In-Game though.

still not enough to make me go to the clunky as shit UI and game breaking client

[QUOTE=admiral_Cola;19453792]I use the steam version and I have 0 problems.[/QUOTE] This is saddening, my friend and I have the same issue.

[QUOTE=DeadorK;19452392]Nobody uses Xfire[/QUOTE] "True point." I may add. Most people move on with ICQ/MSN or Steam. I still let XFire autostart and add up all my hours of gameplay nerdiness, though I don't really use it for communication.

[QUOTE=Honkers101;19454608]Alt + PrtScrn[/QUOTE]I already knew that.

Well that's belh.

Maybe its a server thing

I hate XFire.

ill stop using xfire only when steam overlay has a clock

I use xfire so I don't have to manually add every game I want to steam. Auto-detection is a nice thing.

[QUOTE=DeadorK;19452392]Nobody uses Xfire[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=NeoShinsei;19452575]Apart from people that have never heard of Steam.[/QUOTE] I use both. :eng101: Xfire is actually just to keep track of all my game's hours and take screenshots/videos in all games. Xfire's store is horrible and it will never replace Steam. But I just used my keyboard's media keys to control WMP anyway.

I only use xfire as a server browser. Other than that, the steam overlay is better.

Xfire's voice chat quality is pretty awesome too.
