I did a search for this and nothing came up, so here goes.

I've been wondering this for a while. In online multiplayer games that are available for more than one system, are all the systems compatible? For example, could a guy playing Halo on PC play against a guy playing it on XBox? Or are they separate communities?

Separate server clusters. Multi-platform integration would be awesome, but it would have to be supported by the game developer and not be infringing on any agreements with Microsoft or Sony for example. I know a Microsoft Xbox network would not allow Sony gamers to hop on their servers... Just think of the rivalry though, would make for some awesome matches.
 
Those playing on consoles would complain about losing all the time.
