^The Know^
Microsoft will be testing multiplayer gameplay between Xbox and PC this weekend, called Crossplay.
Mass hysteria will ensue of course, as this finally allows players from both sides of the spectrum to play against each other.
This may be a very good way to test whether or not this is a viable option, as it may open more doors to other games; remember, games don't just have to be competitive multiplayer and could be cooperative multiplayer games.
I for one am very interested to see all out hate amongst the PC and console fanboys.

I'll just leave this here as a reminder as to why crossplay between PC and consoles will never work. Shadowrun Xbox 360.
