    Default PS2/XBox/GC launch games

    Can anyone help me with a list of games that was available with the PS2, Xbox, and GC when launched? And perhaps games that came out within a week or two afterwards?

    I remember the PS2 and GC having poor lineups at launch -- the XBox had a decent one.

    PS2 launch games sucked horribly, Xbox's only saviour was halo, but I thought GC had some pretty strong launch titles.

    Check the list at www.nintendo.com... I can tell you for sure that Universal Studios came out in December. The GCN either had 5 or 7 games at launch; a majority of those listed came out in December 2001.

    I know All-Star Baseball 2002 did come out on launch day as that was one of two games I got that day, Rogue Leader being the other.

    Here's a list from an IGN.com article for the Gamecube dated November 16, 2001:

    Tarzan Untamed
    Luigi's Mansion
    Wave Race: Blue Storm
    Star Wars: Rogue Leader
    Super Monkey Ball
    Madden 2002
    Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2
    Tony Hawk 3
    All Star Baseball 2002
    Crazy Taxi
    NHL Hitz 2002
    Universal Studios

    And here is the list for the Xbox from xboxmagonline.com, confirmed by Microsoft, so it says:

    Halo
    Dead or Alive 3
    Fuzion Frenzy
    Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee
    NFL Fever 2002
    Project Gotham Racing
    Madden NFL 2002
    NASCAR Thunder 2002
    Shrek
    Dark Summit
    Cel Damage
    NHL Hitz 20-02
    NASCAR Heat 2002
    TransWorld Surf
    Test Drive Off Road Wide Open
    Mad Dash Racing
    4x4 Evo 2
    Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2x
    AirForce Delta Storm

    I'm pretty sure those are right. I swear I remember Universal Studios coming out on launch day for the Gamecube, I suppose I could be wrong though.
