BURBANK, CA  [Friday Feb.6.2004]  /WMQT.com/ -- Xbox Live fans got a chance to play ESPN NFL Football against OutKast's Big Boi today.

The new feature from Microsoft is called "Game With Fame" and is a series of events where players get the chance to play Xbox games against artists like Phantom Planet, The Strokes, The Crystal Method, Fefe Dobson, Kings of Leon, Korn, Hoobastank, A New Found Glory, and Thrice.

Mitch Koch, of Xbox said

"Who better to launch Game With Fame than the hottest musical act around: Outkast. Just as Outkast's music crosses boundaries and connects people, Xbox Live is becoming a way to link different types of people from all backgrounds and walks of life."

Big Boi continued the mutual love-fest with this:
"If you've listened to our music or seen us live, you know Outkast knows how to set it off, and we're about to change Xbox Live forever. Not only will I talk to the Outkast fans out there, but I'll show 'em how we get down in the ATL on ESPN NFL Football."
