Next wednesday, two new games will be made available through Xbox Live. The first game is Rez HD, a remake of the 2002 culthit for PS2. The goal of this on rails shooter is still to hack the network but this time you can do it in High Definition and with 5.1 surround sound.

The second game is Chessmaster Live. As the title kind of insinuates, we're talking about nice and cozy games of chess here. You can choose to take on the computer or find a real life human opponent online. A nice feature of this game is the Message Chess system wich lets players send their moves when they have some time. Handy for people who don't have that much free time.
