PS2 launch was the best launch in history. (proof inside)

I'm going to do little talking and show the proof. Note: launch games are in a window a month form the release date of the console.

PS2: Tekken Tag Tourny (9.6), SSX (9.4), Madden 2001 (9.1), FIFA 2001 (9.0), Guitar Freaks 3rd Mix (9.0), Smuggler's Run (8.0), Midnight Club: Street Racing (8.4), Unreal Tourny (8.2), Timesplitter (8.4), ESPN: Track and Field (8.1), Moto GP (8.1), DOA2: Hardcore (8.9), Ready 2 Rumble: Round 2 (8.0), Sky Odysessy (8.2),

Xbox360: Kameo (8.7), NBA 2k6 (8.3), Call of Duty 2 (8.8 ), Need for Speed Most Wanted (8.4), Condemed (8.0), Project Gotham Racing (8.8 ), Perfect Dark Zero (9.0), Ridge Racer 6 (8.1), King Kong (8.2),

PS3: Call of Duty (8.3), Resistance: Fall of Man (8.6), NHL 2k7 (8.3), Tiger Woods (8.2), NBA 2K7 (8.2), Ridge Racer 7 (8.0), Fight Night Round 3 (8.2)

Wii: Truma Center (8.0), Super Monkey Ball (8.3), Zelda: TP (8.8 ), Rayman Raving Rabbit (8.0),

PS2: 5 AAA, 9 AA
360: 1 AAA, 8 AA
PS3: 7 AA
Wii: 4 AA

I'm not including the 4th and 5th generation of gaming. If I did, PS2 still would win. What's so great about the PS2 launch is the diversity of its library. Can we all agree the PS2 was the best launch?

Just because a game got a good score doesn't mean everyone likes it. I don't like any of the PS2 games you listed.SmashBrosLegend

Review scores from Gamespot does not equal proof. An example would be the perfect score they gave Tony Hawk 3 soon after launch. Its an opinion. The PS2 launch was grand, the PS3 should have looked at that or the Xbox 360 launch for inspiration.Sagacious_Tien

The 360 had a launch window which included Oblivion and DOA4. Saying that, the PS2 list is very impressive.

I've always thought however, that the Dreamcast had the best.

Since so few of these were in the US, it just shows how bad the launch was here IMHO.

I'm not going to lie, I loved PS2 and Sony back then. If they had the same aproach again with the PS3 they would be winners again.

There's a saying here in Brazil that a winning team shouldn't be changed, and I think it's right.

Now Sony is simply too arrogant for their own good.

But I agree with the PO, the PS2 had the best launch lineup ever. A lot of good (maybe not great) games, it didn't have only one extremely good game like most consoles, the average of quality in PS2 game lineup makes it the best.
