Fresh from the Microsoft’s media briefing, ESPN has announced a partnership with the Xbox 360 which will allow owners of Xbox 360s to watch their favorite sports straight off of their Xbox 360, including live games. You can expect to be able to watch College football, basketball, MLB, NBA and soccer live straight from your console.

The ESPN “app” can use both the standard controller or use Microsoft Kinetc for “controller-less” control. On top of that the ESPN application allows you to replay events (they showed a pre-recorded event/game so it’s unclear if this will work for live streaming). This will only be available to Xbox Live Gold members.
