Xfire becomes middleware for online PS3 games

It looks like we're slowly getting some more information about how Sony sees the PS3 online happening. Although it's been denied before, Xfire will probably become one of the more popular ways for developers and publishers to go online on the PS3.

The deal with Dark Kingdom was one of them, but it's a deal based on a more global arrangement with Xfire getting a license as middleware for PS3 games.

Next-Gen: First of all, a lot of gamers are wondering if this Xfire deal will extend beyond SOE and Dark Kingdom…

Mike Cassidy: There are two deals here, really. There’s one deal between us and SOE, and there’s one deal between us and Sony Computer Entertainment. The deal with SCE is a tools and middleware license that lets us basically build a plug-in for any PS3 game. Then we need to work with the publishers, and the publishers use that middleware to enable Xfire functionality in their games.

The deal with Sony Online is sort of the first deal we’re doing with a publisher. It just so happens that Sony Online has the same name as Sony Computer Entertainment. It could’ve been another publisher, but they’re two different deals.

NG: So the jist of it is that the SOE deal is the first of other deals that will inevitably appear for PS3 games.

MC: Correct.

In the meantime, it's sure you don't have to expect one integrated happening like on the Xbox360, but that actually never really was the purpose.
