Footie

Ok my son enjoys sport games allmost exclusively and football games most of
all (i think management mainly but he plays both) so i was wondering has
anyone heard of any rumours or got any info on any xbox live footie games up
and coming ?

Nope, haven't heard about any

It's a shame as well- as a decent footy game is what the Xbox is sorely
lacking. At the moment I'm looking forward to Topspin Tennis, which is Live
compatible and is looking impressive. IMHO an online Tennis game could
really work extremely well

XBox Live wise, no. If he's after an XBox management game (and he doesn't
mind it being a season out of date) you could get Championship Manager
Season 02/03. It's a PC port (and it looks it - believe me!) but it's damn
addictive.

Club Football could be a winner, if it plays like the winning eleven series
then it can't be bad!

M$ are looking into this according to a recent interview. Club Football
looks good but they have got a thread lasting 18 pages on the forums and
they are thinking about it. It will take a while of course.

LMA Manager is great for management (non-live though)

But.. on live..

You can play football on Phantasy Star Online, ive heard its rather
crap though.

Also, on Midtown Madness ive heard that there is a football pitch
somewhere where you can use your cars to play football with.. dunno if
this is true though

If you have a pc then i would suggest getting Half Life and running
the International Online Soccer mod its a good laugh, also the new
FIFA games on pc have online play too

They have had online play for years now........ since fifa 2000

Thats the one thing missing from my ultimate xbl wish list is a footie game

They were only direct modem connections i thought?!

I thought 2003 was the first one to play over the net?! maybe im
wrong.
