Raptr Adds Cross-Platform IM Support

Raptr, the cross-platform social gaming tool, today launched a new IM service than spans the most popular IM networks.

Now, all Raptr friends will be consolidated to one list that can be seen from PC, Mac, and even Xbox 360. Supported services include AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, and Facebook Chat – even Xfire and Xbox Live.

“It’s often frustrating to connect with friends,” says Dennis Fong, Founder and CEO of Raptr. “You don’t know when they’re actually playing or how to reach them.”

As with other Raptr features, the new messaging support also tracks what games your friends are currently playing and updates their status in real-time, broadcasting their in-game achievements, rankings, and statistics for not only the previously stated platforms, but also Facebook, Flash, and even a few PlayStation 3 and Wii titles.
