ESPN Inks Deal With Microsoft To Put Games on Xbox Live


ESPN and Microsoft have inked a deal to bring full-length games and TV shows from the sports network to Xbox Live, the online entertainment network for the Xbox 360. Among the offerings available for purchase starting Monday on the Xbox Live Marketplace are days-old, full-length NCAA college football and basketball games, Summer X Games 13 and episodes of such ESPN shows as "World Series of Poker," "The Contender" and "Madden Nation." ESPN's Xbox Live offerings will kick off with a replay of Saturday's USC vs. Oregon State game. ESPN has been on Xbox Live's main rival in video downloads, Apple's iTunes, since January 2006.
