Out Now...
Mech Assault
Moto GP

Unreal Championship
Ghost Recon
NFL Fever 2003
Apparently there are 60 developers working on online titles right now with 50 on the way next year. Heres the titles I know that are on the way...
Star Wars: Galaxies
Counter Strike
Lamborghini
True Fantasy: Live Online
Phantasy Star Online 1+2
Project Gothem Racing 2
Halo 2
Midtown Madness 3
Amped 2 (I think)
Capcom Vs SNK 2 Pro
Return To Castle Wolfenstein
Outlaw Volleyball
Steel Battalion 2
Raiden Fighters Evolution
Top Spin (tennis)
Rolling
Wild Rings (I think)
Those are the titles I know about. Plus of course you have games such as Splinter Cell and Toejam & Earl 3 that although have no online play, allow you to use X-Box Live to download new content such as new levels, power ups, multiplayer maps, characters, cars, etc.
I'm guessing the next Madden game on X-Box will be online playable and maybe even the next Fifa game. I reckon that by the end of next year, there will probably be at least 1 online game for each different type of sport (barring stupid stuff like Curling before some smart ar5e tries to be clever).

Why?
I myself do not like online gaming, for those who do, fair enough I admit the XBox is good at that.
Sorry if I 'offended' anyone... but come on that was a pretty harmless post...

Call charges and modem subscription dont go together.
Call charges are only for dial-up.
Cable modems are just one single monthly payment. Seeing as I already have it for my PC that means £42 for a years access, a memory card, a headset and two online demos.
Then possibly an extra £15-20 for a NIC and ethernet cable (depends on how you connect it).
For the Gamecube plans you have to buy a 56K add-on and for cable a cable addon on top of that (Unless they have changed it. But that was the original plan).
Plus you may need to buy a harddrive for downloading extra stuff.
Then theres the modem/dial-up charges.
So unless Nintendo have changed this stuff then XBL is cheaper.
Think logically before you post. =)
:P
Ohh, add sudeki or watever to that Online list, and Is Black Hawk Down on it?
