Yes today is the day that GC launched in the US. Me myself got one from a local k-Bee toys. The line outside had about 40 people at 8:00 am when the store opened.
Me and my dad were the 6th people in the store. They were being sold in either purple or black. I got a black one, with Luigi\'s Mansion, Wave Race, and Star Wars rouge leader. I also got a memory card and another controller.
The Cube is very small.....and so are the discs. The discs are about the same size as the top of a glass cup. The Cube is about 4 inches tall and 6 inches wide.
I give Luigi\'s a 9.0 (-.5 for not being ble to run as far as I know)
Graphics:9.5
Gameplay:9.5
Sound:10
I gave Wave race a 9.5
Graphics:10
Gameplay:10
Sound:9.5
I give Star Wars a perfect 10
Graphics:10
Gameplay:10
Sound:10
Theses ratings are what I have seen so far.

Congrats on your purchase. You may want to play the games a little more before you start giving them almost straight 10s. Anyways, I\'ll probably walk into a local store sometime next week, because I doubt ALL 700,000 units will be sold (seeing as though the XBox\'s shipment was about 400,000 have they have not completely sold). Then, I\'ll probably be getting an XBox at around the time when either Jet Grind Radio is released, or Project Ego. Hopefully earlier, because it\'s bad coming late into a system\'s life and trying to buy all those good games.

Cool glad to here you guys got your GC. Btw, how do you like them? I\'m busy playing xbox and mgs2.:D

The cubes are fun rouge leader is a really fun and addictive game. The store I went to made you buy 3 games with it, that was kinda unfair. I got Luigi\'s SW, and Wave.
-
welp, both next-gen consoles are now launched and NEITHER created the launch mania that the PS2 did
now its merely a race to see whether the xbox or GC can hope for 2nd place
we all know 2nd place = 1st loser

Its an educated guess, he sees that neither the xbox nor the GC had a great launch so he figures PS2 is set from what he has seen
-
I actualy think that both GC , and X-box both have a chance , they both have great games and are looking good so far , so why slap the 2nd place ribbon on one of those 2 now?

I wouldn\'t say it was an educated guess seeing as how XBox and GC just came out.
Unless I\'m mistaken, didn\'t the N64 have a bigger launch than the Playstation? If that\'s true, then PS2\'s launch will not guarantee it first place.
-
unless sony goes bankrupt and stops support of the PS2, xbox and GC will NEVER match the installed user base of the PS2
theres almost 15 million PS2\'s in peoples homes across the world
deny it all you want, the numbers are unattainable
-
Guess what mm? I heard sony was at 20million ps2 sold worldwide and this was before mgs2 came out!!!!!! Thats why sony came out with those different colored ps2 to celbrate their 20million ps2s sold. That amazing........
-
My friend is visiting for the holidays and is bringing his GC so I can play it and then break it. :)
-
I got my Jet GCN, a Mem Card 59, Luigi\'s Mansion, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 on Saturday night. I had Rogue Leader already. I\'ll be back next week, when I come up for air! :)

LOL, that just cracked me up.
-
20 million PS2\'s? wow
dont get me wrong, the xbox and GC might be fine and dandy, but they cant hope to match that number
-
No, the last confirmed number of SOLD PS2s is 15 million. This was back in August though, so I wouldn\'t be surprised if it was up to 17 million by now. That 20 million number is how many have been produced. The colored limited edition PS2s were made to celebrate 20 million PS2s produced, not sold.

............Are you kidding or are you just a complete total IDIOTIC kid? If you do break it do you think he\'ll be your friend?
When you post, make them good posts please.

Wondered why you havent been posting over the past week
Anyway thants very strange
acorrding to you the sales of PS2 have not yet reached 20 million yet but you have been saying that for the past few months and Sony anounced the coloured PS2 ads a celibration of producing 20million ages ago.
15 Million is a low end Estimate on world wide figures
20 million and over is the max expected
The PS2 is Selling well and will be boosted by price drops and a clear run to christmas in Europe
Ah well one thing you have missed out on it its Game sales and not Console sales where the companyies make their money.
wait a min 2 million sales of Final Fantasy in just a few days ?!?!?!?!?!?
Gran Turismo 3 Braking the records before that
oh and Grand theif Auto 3 becoming a Suprize hit too
and MGS2 set to take the rest of the world by storm
now which console are they for again
:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
