Another NFL Fever 2003 Xbox Live Preview
This time the IGN guys got their chance to play NFL Fever 2003 with Xbox Live. Even if you read the Gamespot preview you should still read this one. This article goes more in-depth and can answer some basic questions on how Xbox Live will work. While trying to contain their excitement, they had this to say:"We wasted no time on pleasant introductions, preferring instead to kick off the trash talk from the get go. "We’ll try not to make you cry," I said. Of course, on their end my voice came off as somewhat of a low-pitched Mickey Mouse taunt thanks to the voice masking. Turns out that was the wrong thing to say. These two Fever experts had been getting their butts handed to them all day. It’s not likely that two guys who’ve played more Fever than most would get beaten repeatedly if they weren’t playing soft to make some lesser-skilled journalists feel good about themselves. At least, that’s my excuse for why we were the only set of journalists not to whoop arse. "We’ve lost all day," a thick, booming voice said through my headset, "and it’s time to earn back some respect." Oops. Guess we woke up the sleeping giant."
