Excellent article.  Same applies to the PS2 on launch.  All hype, little substance.

Pay over $500 to play titles like those?  It\'s your money.

There is one thing to be said about the Xbox 360.. it lacks a stand-out killer app.

Nothing on the level of a Halo, or a Super Mario 64.. nothing that can knock your socks off compared to other console games. Even Perfect Dark Zero is going to suffer from a rushed schedule, and not make launch. (?)

I count the month after launch as "launch".. so maybe it\'ll be a launch title. All signs point to it being a little underwhelming for one reason or another.. but let\'s hope for a 9.5+..

BTW.. the highest rated game there is CoD2. A PC port and a member of a vastly overpopulated sub-genre. That should blow the doors off of th\' old gaming room, eh?

Looking at that same ign list...there\'s a bunch of games in 8.0-9 range which is good. PS2 launch had SSX(which was ok) and a bunch of duds pretty much.

Gamecube had no good launch games either.

Is PD0 really delayed? That\'s fucking ridiculous if it is. They advertise a game for launch (i.e. the day the system comes out) and I give them a bunch of money and then they delay it? Keep your unrealistic release dates to yourself and let me spend my money on a game from a company who\'s got its shit together.

Rare sucks.

"But the game will be better."

They\'ve had years to shine that turd and they would have been better off just re-releasing a de-licensed but graphically overhauled 007.

That game was always better than Perfect Dark anyway.

I\'m really starting to hate that guy. The things he\'s been saying lately are asinine. That looks like something he\'d actually say.

He\'s a dick to all his guests. It\'s starting to get old. But I guess that\'s what makes his show what it is.
