Stop worrying about things and just enjoy the fact that we can chat face to face, using cameras, to people in other countries more or less for free?

I imagine they host their meeting in a private lobby, and get in some target practice at the same time!

But what if he trained with Kinnect or Move, eh? ;)

It would appear that only Bratty has more concern than me about security! Whilst the rest of play video games, I'll continue to search :)

Fact - Skype isn't secure.
Fact - Google is hardly an alternative if security and privacy are concerns.

Thanks for your help guys :D

Authorisation codes? Launch codes? Coordinates? It's coordinates to the villain's lair, right?
