ESPN Launches New Features On Xbox Live
The ESPN update launching today allows sports fans to keep tabs on their favorite teams, watch two events at once, and navigate via Kinect-enabled voice controls.
Just in time for the NCAA football season, fans will have more ways than ever before to stay abreast of league happenings. The My Sports interface allows you to choose your favorite teams, among other things.
The update also includes a mini-guide for quick navigation, a live college football scoreboard, the ESPN BottomLine news ticker, plus reminders and live alerts that keep you up to date on score changes. I dig these additions, but what I really want is split screen functionality that allows me to play a video game while watching a live sporting event at the same time. Too much?

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
