Okay so i am a PC gamer don't like Wii 360 or PS3 i just work on my PC for games now i chat a lot but i would like to know what chat program i should use so i wont get slow down on my PC but also a lot of people use the program so i have people to talk to (Voice chat and webcam calls would be great in it) I have downloaded many chat programs and have not had time to test them all and would like to know which one is best for what i need i have, Windows live messenger, Yahoo Messenger, AIM, Google talk, Skype and Xfire. That is all chat programs and just want to know which is best for my uses or if there is another chat program out there that will work that i do not know of.

1. Dude get Ventrilo man. But if i had to choose from the ones above I'd say Gtalk or Y!Messenger.
2. Well, if you want one with alot of people in it I'd use Yahoo or Windows live, I also know that alot of people use AIM... but if you want one that won't slow down your computer barely at all Id go for Xfire, thats what I use,for it is meant for gaming purposes, it also has a good population, not as much as Yahoo, AIM or Live I think. Skype really slows down your computer, and that's all I really know about it. I do not know anything at all about Google talk. Hope this helps!
