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

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

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

How about even older: HEAT (HEAT.net)? https://web.archive.org/web/19970601031026/http://www.heat.net/

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

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

I used this daily, had so many hours logged pre getting everything on steam. Was actually just talking about it not that long ago, was such a big part of my highschool years.

Bring it back :(

I was an mplayer user. They had plenty of quake team fortress servers.

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.

Remember installing it from my Medal of Honor disk. Was it Pacific Assault? I don’t remember.

This came up in convo with a co-worker recently. I had completely forgotten about it until he mentioned it and then, suddenly, a flood of memories came rushing back.

I remember i had an account with my real name on it. I lost the password so my name was forever associated with an Xfire account i created as an edgy 14 year old. I msged support and they were like the most stereotypical americans ever lol "We cant verify if that ID is valid bc you arent from the USA but we will delete it as a curtesy"

Thank god for the GPDR, this interaction would go a bit different today lol

I used to love this. I remember it getting very buggy though towards the end. I think this turned into raptor later on or something like that.
