I was hoping that this years EA games would work on XBC but it doesnt seem like it. Is that true? Since it does not have system link compatability. XBC has not had the option for NCAA 2005 yet. I was hoping madden would be online. Please let me know. If you cant, is it possible to patch it and make it system-link compatible so XBC will support it? thanks

Ok, to clear thing's up. Every game that is pretty much System-Link Multiplayer is on Xbconnect. Doesn't matter if it supports it or not. Because you can always host a game like HALO and make the title say MADDEN and you can still play Madden.

I'd be interested in this also but I'm guessing no.

NCAA Football 2005 doesn't support system link, thus it won't work on XBC or X-Link. Same goes for ANY Live, but no system link title.

And you know EA left it out on purpose.  They even had some earlier titles that supported it but pulled it pretty quickly.  I was hoping with their Live integration they'd add it back but apparently not.

yea ncaa 2005 doesnt support system link, so im guessing madden wont either which blows. is it possible to make a patch for it? of course someone would have to want to spend their time doing it. If all else i know this aint the right forum ... but is disabling you modchip and going on xbox live still effective or has MS figured out a way to still search your harddrive to ban you? Madden is worth the investment for xbox live.

Shit, i pray that they change their approach.

Playing Fifa 2005, or Burnout 3 over System link would be awesome.  :beer:

Not possible, if you want a sys-link sports game then get something like ESPN or something.
