Microsoft on Wednesday officially announced the PC portion of Live--called Games for Windows Live--and its release date.
Windows Vista gamers, like Xbox 360 players, on May 8 will be able to collect achievements and tally a "Gamerscore," list friends, and send text and voice messages.
Microsoft has been touting an Xbox Live-like service for PC gamers ever since the 2006 Electronic Entertainment Expo, when Chairman Bill Gates introduced the notion of Live Anywhere.
The proposed service, Gates said, would connect mobile phones, PCs and Xbox 360s with a universal account that logs gamers' stats, displays friends and sends messages between devices.
