Instant messenger for gamers – XFire

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

Xfire is a great instant messenger for gamers. You can keep a lookout for your friends when they are playing online, which game they are playing and where are their playing. Eventually, you can join their game with a click. Best thing about XFire is that it lets you receive instant messages without bugging you.

Xfire System Requirements:

You don’t have to worry about the system requirements but still here’s what you need.

10 MB HardDisk Space
PC running Windows 2000, XP, or Vista
