XSN question

Ok so I have yet to get on X-Box Live, and this whole XSN thing is pretty cool to me because I'm a HUGE sports multiplayer fan and I like NEVER skip a sports game that looks and plays good. But I have had this bugging me all day. Will XSN be avilable for ALL sports games on the X-Box, or only for the crappy Microsoft games like Amped, NBA Inside Drive, Rivals, and NFL Fever? Because Microsoft aint very good at making sports games.

Anywho, hopefully I hit Live up by the end of the year (Or after FF11 that way I can end my PS Online after I beat it).

Hey! Amped actually kicks some major ass, its by far the most realistic snowboarding game to date, and is a hoot to play once you master it. I admit it is a very difficult game, but its awesome once you get the hang of it. Amped is my snowboarding game of choice by far.

Not to mention that Links 2004 is arguably the best golf sim out there, and will be my golf game of choice once it arrives. Top Spin Tennis also looks promising.

That being said, the other MS sports games aren't 'crap,' say like Acclaim's QB Club, but they definitely aren't as good as offerings from SEGA currently.

As far as I can tell ,the XSN features will only be available initially for sure on Microsoft titles. Whether SEGA Sports decides to implement the XSN features on its own titles is up to SEGA.

Personally, I will be using the XSN features on Amped 2, Links 2004 and probably Top Spin, but I will be using whatever features SEGA dreams up for NFL 2K4, NBA 2K4, NHL 2K4, and WSB 2K4.

Amped was ok, I cleared it within a week and it didnt give much of a challenge compared to Cool Boarders 2.

I guess i'll join if Sega Sports gets into the XSN thing, but NO WAY if its just Microsoft. (Fever and Inside Drive )
