xfire_logo.jpgMTV’s Xfire gaming site surpassed 5 million registered users this past week. MTV’s parent company, Viacom, purchased Xfire earlier this year for $102 million with 3.2 million registered users. Xfire offers 630 ad-supported games as well as services such as voice chat, in-game messaging, peer-to-peer downloads and buddy lists for registered users. Yep, talking, messaging and gaming all at the same time – it’s like a cell phone except a lot less convenient to put in your purse or pocket.
