Are you one of the many who are already lining up for Xbox Live ? You're not alone, as thousands of others are chomping at the bit to go online and play their favorite games against opponents from all over the world. While we know that Xbox Live will be released on November 15th in the United States, nobody has been sure what games would have Live support built-in by release time. Thankfully, Microsoft has provided us with a simple list of Live-enabled games which we've detailed below. So get ready to get online and show the world what you're made of.
NFL Fever 2003: Microsoft's popular football title is already in stores, so you can buy it now and be prepared for the day you take your Xbox online. With features such as downloadable player rosters and statistics on how other gamers are doing, you should be able to enjoy one of the better football simulations around.
Unreal Championship: If you're paying any attention to Xbox related discussion forums you already know Unreal Championship is one of the most anticipated Xbox titles to come out this fall. Fast and furious FPS action coupled with loads of weapons and a massive selection of multiplayer options ensures that anyone who enjoys blasting other players to bits will enjoy the harcore fragging action of UC for Xbox.
