So you would be saying that Halo is a "must own" game since "everyone you know with an Xbox has it"? Halo also happens to be a first party game since Microsoft bought out Bungie.

Therefore Nintendo is not the only system that makes "must own" first party games.

Sorry, I didn't realize Microsoft bought out Bungie I just thought they bought the exclusive rights to Halo. But this also proves my point somewhat, it's a big deal when Microsoft has one top flight first party game but Nintendo puts out 3 or 4 top notch first party titles a year.

<hr /></blockquote>

There are quite a few other MS first part titles that are solid. Mech Assault, PGR, Rallisport and Inside Drive 2003. I don't consider any game a "must own" because we all have different tastes. I know people with an Xbox who have never owned Halo.

In sports alone Microsoft has 3 upcoming sports games that are high up on my list. Links, Top Spin and NBA Inside Drive 20041. Then you have Halo 2 out next year.

Also Sony does have a few first party titles that do well. Though some people do not care for it Gran Turismo is the biggest selling racing game on the market. You have another Syphon Filter coming soon, Twisted Metal Black brought back that series and Dark Cloud 2 and Ico were both great games.

MS's track record is more hit and miss. Too many hyped games like Blinx were lackluster, plus many of the games you listed are second party games...without Nintendo's games, GC is dead...that is far from true with xbox.

I wont argue with you there. I still say they are better off not having a next generation console and teaming up with Microsoft or just being a 3rd party like Sega. Stick to games and the handheld market.

Well I think MS is doing pretty good for only being it it's second year. Let's face it, the DC didn't have a lineup like this.

The xbox is solid and now they seem to be hitting more than missing and if they get EA Sports to go Xbox Live look out.

Gamecube and the games for it will be like the last year's of the N64, few games here and there. I would say when spring 2004 comes around few games will be announced for the Cube other than first party title.

I think it's worth buying. Most of the games are pretty good for it. But I think that they will stop producing Gamecube games in the next year or so.
