I used it every day. RIP my gametime statistics for BF2.

Man I used to stat pad with the boys on BF2 and camp. We were a troll squad. Such good memories.

If flying a fighter jet in real life was just like flying one in BF2, I’d have a very valuable life skill.

Oh yea xfire was the software to have. I streamed myself doing full playthrough of bioshock and remember even getting quite a few viewers. Good times.

I remember disliking it. I don’t remember why

Yeah I think I ended up trying it an Ventrillo, and I preferred the latter.

For me it was because most people were on AIM anyway

This was the best way to game with and chat with friends. I miss those days.

A blast from the past. Totally forgot about it existing until this post.

Wow this brought back memories of making bank in clan COD tourneys(=USA=). It was too easy back then, now gamers practice 6 hours a day.

Xfire was my bastion with my totally legit copy of Call of Duty 4.

CoD4 was fireee. Dude, CoDJump, Zombie mod, and on top of it all promod to make the game competitive.

Oh god. I must have had 2000 hours logged on jedi academy with xfire. Brings back memories.

Me too, but it was Civ 4 instead of Jedi Academy

Oh, I remember. Some of the games I played a lot would just crash if I had Xfire running in the background.

For those that didn’t use it, Xfire was basically a combination of messenger, voice chat, and a server browser for games back in the day.

As far as I know, it was also one of the earliest ways to stream your gameplay for others to watch. I remember trying it out years before Twitch was around.

It was pretty much used the way people use Discord with a group of friends today. It didn't have servers or anything like that, but you could hop on a call with a couple of buds and play games together.

I played a lot of Halo Custom Edition over Xfire back in the day...

It also made it really easy to join your friends games before everything was on steam.

Man I’d forgotten about this.

This and vent were the first things I loaded when gaming (along with frapps).

Didn’t they have custom skins because I remember messing around with that and rocking some cool skins…?
