MS Reveals Big-Name Xbox Games

Posted by timothy on from the tuxracer-flightgear-and-frozen-bubble dept.

LukeG writes "At this year's huge X02 event in Seville, Microsoft pulled out all the stops to convince the vast contingent of mainstream journalists present that the Xbox did indeed have the credentials to take on Sony and Nintendo. As well as the huge acquisition of Rare, Microsoft also reveled in the number of other potential AAA titles confirmed at the show. The best of these are examined in this preview."

    "We already know that the PS2 and GameCube have awesome games."

    Noooooo... Nintendo has a handful of awesome games on the Cube. In fact, I'd say the only thing that gives them the edge at this point is their name and older than dirt game franchises like Mario and Zelda. In the battle for second, it's seems more about name brand recognition to me than anything else. I think if you were to give the XBox the same amount of visibility from years experience, you'd about have a tie or better, given the hardware.
