Not this again Docwiz. I thought we already had this Xbox vs PS2 launch game debate...

You forgot TTT, DOA2:HC, and Timesplitters.
I have played DOA3 (awesome and not just the graphics)
You leave DOA2:HC out of the "only good PS2 launch games," yet you include DOA3 as a great game for the Xbox launch? Um, where\'s that "WTF" emoticon when I need it?
EDIT: I think this will do:
Halo (not just the graphics were awesome)
It has a great single player and co-op mode, but the deathmatch is lacking. What, no bots?! Timesplitters has better multiplayer than this game does IMO. But yes, the single player and co-op are very good.
Project Gotham racing (xbox\'s arcade version of GT3 at launch)
RRV with better graphics. Just what you\'d expect from a game coming out a year and a half later.
Munches Oddesy (played the game demo that came with Halo and it rocked going to buy this, its fun. I thought it would totally suck, but its fun).
If you are including this game as a great Xbox launch game, then you might as well include The Summoner as a great PS2 launch games. :rolleyes: Munch has got nothing but sub-par (5-7 range) reviews from almost everyone.
NFL Fever (the best football game on xbox period)
And PS2 launch got Madden 2001.
Amped is now out in some stores and will be out everywhere this coming Tuesday. This is an awesome snowboarding game for xbox. Its not exactly out at launch but a few days later.
It doesn\'t compare to SSX IMO. The realistic snowboarding days are over. Almost everyone prefers SSX style now.
So how exactly does the Xbox "easily kill the PS2 launch?" How is it so much better? You are bashing the PS2 launch and praising the Xbox launch even though they are almost identicle. I just don\'t get it.
Brute Force comes out Spring 2002 and other games which have not been even anounced yet.
Is anyone else reminded of The Bouncer when they see Brute Force? We will see if it lives up to the hype, and if it\'s more than just PCish graphics. BTW, any movies? All I\'ve seen are pics that were not that impressive, but I\'m assuming there are movies because of how many Xbox arguments this game gets brought up in.
350 games are supposed to be out in 2002 for xbox.
Riiiiight. :rolleyes: And MGS3 is coming to the PS2 next summer.
Did you also see the quality in the Dashboard menu system and you can play DVD\'s and Audio CD\'s and Navigate menus using the DVD remote. It also comes with a little party graphics thrown in that will move with your music like winamp.
Without a doubt, the Xbox menus kick butt. No argument here.
The controllers rock, they have better vibration than that of the PS2 and they fill my hands up so that they arn\'t being cramped.
The few, the proud, the Xbox controller lovers. You are really in the minority by liking the Xbox controller. It beats the Dreamcast and N64 controller, but thats it IMO.
