I found that video to be very interesting, it's a demonstration video of Xbox Live back in 2002 when it was in beta, the reason I find the video very interesting is because the game they use to demonstrate the features of Xbox Live is Re-Volt. The Xbox port of Re-Volt was in development and a beta version of the game was sent to all Xbox Live beta testers. Sadly the developers went under before they could release the full version of the game and thus the version shipped to the beta testers was the only version of the Xbox Port of Re-Volt we ever got to see.

I recently read a list of the top 10 rare game collectables of the last generation and the Xbox Live Beta disc with Re-Volt on it was listed as number 1. From what I can see in the video, the port seems absolutely perfect when compared to the original PC version. It even features better menu's than the PC version to.

People have distributed the game digitally and from what I can gather, you need a modified Xbox with the copy protection disabled (so you can play the game from the disc it's burnt to). Obviously the game is no longer playable online but you can play single player and people have reported that there are a couple of graphical glitches and one of the tracks crashes the game.
