    Not legalities per say.
    Just Microsoft's policies for XBL.
    XBL isn't allowed to communicate to ANY outside networks, for ANY reason.
    Cross-platform and outside network access will never (again) be allowed.

    FFXI was allowed, but it was a rare one-time exception.

    It just sucks that you can't play with the same account on PS3 and PC at the same time. I was hoping that when I have a friend over I could play on the PS3 and he could play on the PC and we could do co-op, but sadly you cannot do this. Still getting the game though. (I wasn't even planning on getting it, but I picked up the orange box thursday and started playing Portal and then finished it at 1:30 this morning and now I really want Portal 2).

    Well, I basically live and eat for free and I'm not really good at saving up money so I mostly just spend all my spare money on games, books and other stuff I want. I also trade games in a lot and get new/other ones with the credit.

    That's exactly what it means.
    PC vs PS3.

    PS3 and PC can't play along with XBox players, due to MS' policies.
    When they say cross-platform, its PC and PS3 together.
