    Microsoft Hasn't Forgotten About Live Anywhere, iPhone Either

    Just ran into Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb over at the Microsoft booth in the PAX exhibit hall. After a bit of chatting I brought up the crash-prone iPhone Live app.

    It crashes a lot, I told Hyrb, but I still use it because it's the only option for tracking folks on live on my phone. What about Live Anywhere?

    They haven't forgotten about it, Hryb assured me, they've just had higher priority projects they've been working on. Things like the new Xbox Live Experience set to roll out this Fall. So it's still coming.

    And what about the iPhone. Would Microsoft be behind an office App for the Apple device? Sure, why not. Plenty of Xbox 360 gamers have iPhones, he said.

    I wait, anxiously, for that long-promised portable Live experience.

    Microsoft Still Working on Live Anywhere

    During his talk at the Electronic Gaming Summit today, Microsoft's Jeff Bell briefly, very briefly, touched on the long-lost, quickly becoming mythical Live Anywhere pipedream that Microsoft first mentioned at E3 in 2006.

    The concept, captured in blurry pics later that year, would allow gamers to access Live via a cellphone so they could check friend status, Achievements, all the data of Live, on the go.

    Bell said not to give up hope. "Live anywhere is not abandoned, it's just not easy to do."

    And then he never mentioned it again.

    Live Anywhere Is Bigger Than Jesus

    Live Anywhere — Microsoft's sort of hazy initiative to expand Live features to PCs and Mobile Platforms — hasn't really gotten much press since E3... and barely even then. Ozymandias of Team Xbox thinks that's because "this is one of those things that's bigger than people can easily wrap their heads around." Right! Like the implications of time travel or what happens to you after you die. More »

    Halo 2 PC Won't Cross-Platform Deathmatch... But At Least You Can IM!


    Luke 'I love that Florian Eckhardt guy' Smith over at 1UP is the newest filly to be broken and added to my stable of virtual hos. The fondness is mutual, because he single-handedly breaks many of the stories that I then parasitically cut, paste and post here in pursuit of my daily bread. Like this one! More »

    Marathon Will Live Arcade, Halo 2 Won't Live Anywhere

    Although we suspect the rather ho-hum news that Halo 2 will not be playable through Live Anywhere will strike people as more interesting, we can't help but get a little fist-pumping psyched over the hint that Bungie's proto-Halo, Marathon, is seriously being considered for XBox Live Arcade. Many a day we played that game on the ancient Macs in high school computer lab. Doom was better, but hey... we'll take what we can get. More »

    Live Anywhere Video Demo

    Eurogamer TV has some footage up on their site that shows Live Anywhere in action on a cell phone. Seems mostly useless, but I still can't wait to load it up on my Treo 700w. —Brian Crecente More »
