Ever since MS changed the rules on PC Live Membership, all cross platform games such as Shadowrun and Lost Planet Colonies are now totally free to play online. One more way to save cash.

nice, now to find a list of cross platform titles...
From googling, can't confirm. Also, If it's only Games For Windows label, then TF2 and Left 4 Dead probably won't, as I don't think Valve is publishing under the GFW label, are they?:
Halo Wars (eventually)
Huxley (eventually)
Left 4 Dead (being looked into. Since TF2 is, I wouldn't be surprised)
Lost Planet Colonies (of course, I have the original, and not colonies, argh)
Shadowrun
Team Fortress 2 (ironically, just picked up the PS3 version for the free online, and only PC/360 play, no PS3 cross platform ... FAIL)
Universe at War
NOT:
Gears of War
Unreal Tournament III

Like said above Universe at War was recently patched for Cross platform play but SD owners beware. Game is unreadable/playable on a SDTV

I don't believe TF2 or Left 4 Dead will be due to them being run through Steam and not GFW.

That has to be a glitch, there's no way MS would do that and not hype the hell out of it.

Dude, seriously?
Shadowrun is finally worth picking up!

TF2 on 360 is not a cross platform game. The games aren't even the same on 360 and PC, player size and mapwise. The PC base maps are much different. It feels like a different game overall.

What about XBLA games that are also on PSN? Is Puzzle Fighter the only game that's on XBLA & PSN?

no games work that way regardless... there are a few titles on xbla/psn that are identical but they won't cross platform... i think the list is more like this
Final Fantasy XI (cross between 360/PS2/PC)
Shadowrun
????
isn't that it?
