Microsoft Xbox one is this really the best launch lineup ever

Would you buy an Xbox one just for these games?

 

Crimson Dragon (Grounding/Land Ho!, Microsoft Studios)
Dead Rising 3 (Capcom Vancouver, Microsoft)
Forza Motorsport 5 (Turn 10 Studios, Microsoft Studios)
Killer Instinct (Double Helix, Microsoft Studios)
Lococycle (Twisted Pixel, Microsoft Studios)
Powerstar Golf (Zoe Mode, Microsoft Studios)
Ryse: Son of Rome (Crytek, Microsoft Studios)
Zoo Tycoon (Frontier Developments Ltd., Microsoft Studios)

 

Apparently Crimson dragon is buggy and messed up. 

I don't trust Dead rising to not be a subpar glitchfest (the last two Dead Rising games were)

Forza will almost certainly be good...but it's a racing game so I don't care.

Killer Instinct is a joke with the immense cost they expect you to pay for characters, and no rare = no buy

Lococycle is apparently pretty lame

Ryse is, from all I've heard, This gen's "Lair".  Probably gonna suck.  Expect it until proven otherwise. 

Zoo Tycoon and Golf are not the kinds of games people get excited over. 

Best Lineup?  Far from it.  Where's the Gears of War?  where's the Halo?  Where's the Fable?  I'd say Vita had a better launch lineup than this (or the PS4, for that matter).  I say it's all irrelevant, though.  As Sony has said, it's not a sprint, it's a marathon.  It's not how you start, it's how you finish.  You don't buy a game for its launch, you buy it for its longevity. 

Why are people so caught up in launches?  it's just really not a big deal in the long run.  Look at the PS3.  One of the worst launches ever...ended up with one of the best libraries ever.
