GC had the best line up of this generation

Excluding the Dreamcast, I believe the GC had the best launch games of this generation (even though the games weren\'t mind-blowing...just amazingly fun)

X-Box launched with the increadable Halo, so it comes second, but there weren\'t enough other great games imo....

and PS2 only launched with two reasonably good games, SSX and Timesplitters...although I admit my PS2 has some fab games now, its lauch was the worst.


which console do you think had the best launch games?

if the gamecube launched with SSB, I would consider it the best

I thought the Xbox had the best launch because of Halo.  I agree PS2 had the worst but is now the cream of the crop if you want a big variety of games.

It\'s arguable that the GCN had the best "first month" of any console.

I\'d say that the Xbox is damned close.. but how could we forget the DC? SNES is also very close.

I disagree with that.  I think Halo alone makes the xbox launch equally good.

I think SNES was better than anything this generation, but then again, we are talking about this generation.

I\'ll go with GC, of course

DC comes in first...I spent around 600 on games and accessories the first two weeks.  It was amazing.

Xbox comes in second...I bought a 500$ bundle and spent an extra 200 on games and accessories in the first month.

I didn\'t favor the GC or PS2 launch so I say tie, IMO.

I\'d say the order goes a bit like this...

Dreamcast
Xbox (only for Halo and Munches)
PS2 (It had a few gems.. but I wasn\'t impressed to say the least)
NGC (Nothing really interested me.. and as of right now, there isn\'t much that intrests me. That will soon change, I hope, unless Nintendo pushes back the release dates of a few key games I\'m REALLY lookin forward to)

BTW: Got to play Rouge Leader II this weekend at McVans. This was one of the FEW titles that barely caught my eye at the NGC launch. (I\'m not a big SW fan at all) Graphics were Ace, Sound was god-like, but the control and gameplay were rough and shallow. Maybe if I spent more time with it I\'d change my mind.. but as of now I\'m not TOO impressed at all with it aside from asthetics.

It also takes for god-damned EVER to actually get into a game. At least in most games you can skip unimportant cut-scenes and get to the meat of the game. Not RL2. I started it up and would browse the store for a few minuties while I waited to actually get a chance to play. Pathetic.

Why is everyone so heads over heels in love with Halo???  It\'s just a simple FPS shooter.  Yeah great game, love the 1 player mode, but I played so much GoldenEye multi player that Im just sick of that genre.  Especially when PC FPS games make Halo their biatch while PC games have nothing on the PS2 & GC exclusives

PS2 had Tekken Tag, Dynasty Warriors, Madden and SSX.

GC had Smash Bros which is much more original than just another FPS game.

All I know is that PS2 was sold out within secs and my friend got one by "renting" at Blockbuster never to be returned.  We played that thing nonstop.

but how could we forget the DC? SNES is also very close.




 He said excluding DC and this gen. Read carefully next time.



  Gamecube had a great launch. But you people are underestimating PS2\'s launch. Time Splitter kept me entertained for months. SSX is the best snowboarding game Ive ever played. Id sayt the list for this gen goes thiis way

1. GC
2. Ps2
3. X-box



Gc was first becuase all of its launch games that I bought kept me entertained. PS2 sencond because its games kept me entertained the longest but not all of them were that entertaining. X-Box third because the only thong good about the Box were its amazing graphics and HALO.

i thought the GC launch sux0r\'d

star wars rogue leader II was all it had

where\'s the latest mario?  that would have been enough for me

I think Xbox had the best launch with Halo. I love that game.

Cloud345: I read carefully, I just gave out a liberal answer.

I didn\'t even talk about launch day like everybody else.. I\'m talking about the 1st month of releases. Why?

Personally, I think the first 30 days are a launch period.. not just launch day.

N64 had the best launch.

Super Mario 64 = Best Platformer Ever

hands down DC had the best launch, followed by xbox and ps2 then gamecube.
