Microsoft opens its online gaming service for PC users
Microsoft announced yesterday that it was previously available only to Xbox owners and the gaming service can now be used by PC users to play on the Internet.
Xbox Live - an online gaming network that brings together 6 million Xbox users will be available for PC users on May 8 under the name Games for Windows - Live. The selected date coincides with the announcement of the most anticipated game - Halo 2.
Despite the fact that most of the gaming industry is focused on console games, most games are most often played on PCs, which are much more than game consoles.
Online games are increasingly being made only for game consoles, which is why players behind PCs are upset that they cannot enjoy such features. Thus, Microsoft (hereinafter referred to as her own words) presents a rather big gift to the twenty millionth army of PC gamers.

Membership in Games for Windows - Live will be free, but to be able to play with console players you will have to pay $ 50 per year (the same applies to console players in relation to PC users).
