This thread is basically saying that exceptions contradict the norm.

Well, no.

I can list a lot of more launch games

Well, Mario 64 is my least favorite Mario game so...Super Mario Bros., Super Mario World or even recent Super Mario Bros. U are better examples of polished games on day one of a system.

I think most of our expectations are set by previous launches of that company. Sony's PS4 launch was par for previous launches to me of PlayStation (I'd go 2, 4, 1, 3 for my tastes).

No, as you obviously only read the title.

Well, if you can prove that good games were the norm for launch games then you have a point.

Well, being logical...

 

1 - Mario 64 is obviously an amazing exception.

2 - This thread considers that exceptions contradict the norm.

3-  Well, no, as the norm is not defined by exceptions.


No, as you obviously only read the title. 

Lol, I read it all. Each and every "bullshit".

My bad. When i first read it it looked like he liked the launch titles.

Kameo on 360 was good. Resistance on PS3 too. Project Gotham on XBOX mindblowned me.

And don't forget rayman on PSX

C'mon, Ethomaz. Be a man and give your opinion about X1's games as well

Some example of launch titles games that I played...

  • Super Mario World
  • F-Zero
  • Pilotwings
  • Luigi's Mansion
  • Tekken Tag Tournament
  • Unreal Tournament
  • Street Fighter EX3
  • Super Monkey Ball
  • Halo: Combat Evolved
  • Project Gotham Racing
  • Perfect Dark Zero
  • Project Gotham Racing 3
  • Resistance: Fall of Man
  • Wii Sports
  • Soulcalibur
  • AeroWings
  • Sonic Adventure
  • Pilotwings 64
  • Battle Arena Toshinden
  • Jumping Flash!
  • Rayman
  • Virtua Fighter
  • Panzer Dragoon
  • Daytona USA
  • Altered Beast

You can disagree but most of these games are better than the actual launch titles with few exceptions.

Edit - I think I forget some good launch titles in the list.

True, I agree completely.



Weedlab on 13 December 2013

Can't say I disagree. To be honest, I've found this to be the case with the N64 and the GC. They both had some decent launch games.
