Time to straighten things out here. Life would not be as nice without a PS2 or a Gamecube. I want my top games from both those systems.
As Xavier pointed out with his list above, the XBOX does have many nice games coming.(Hey Munch alone is worth a purchase of the XBOX as far as I'm concerned).
Here are a few more and I have played each and everyone of them realtime,along with seeing tons of concepts and having had many conversations with the developers.
Kakuto X: Best fighter coming,bar none,it will out do all comers,i've seen footage and concepts, along with a 5 minute spin with an early version,and it already blew all other fighters away.
Heavens beast: XBOX exclusive: 3RD person act/adv that is perfect,when you see the details and depth along with gameplay and graphics along with the level of A.I. you will think you are in the year 2007 playing a XBOX 2.
24 Automatons: Lemmings meets Metal gear,beleive me it sounds strange but it is a true next gen game coming in Spring 2002 only on the XBOX.It's a 3rd person act/adv with Lemmings type strategy in a gigantic fantasy world that has to be seen to be believed.
Here are some more that I'll point out that are top notch games coming that should not be missed by any true game lover.
Panzer Dragoon: Action-roleplaying, that far transends the old versions, backed by the power of XBOX the game is going to be a dream, Ive been given a short run with it,it's no longer on rails and it is all done with major poly counts on all beasts and sets,lighting and shadows all effects are already in top form.No limits, free flowing action and one that would be a pity to miss.
Metal Gear X: New version for the XBOX, will be different from the PS2 version.New storyline options and will take advantage of the XBOX powers that be.
Well here's some more with a quick discription.
Enclave 3rd person act/adv
Kleaners (wait till you see it)
Orchid Next,next gen,trust me
Terminal reality act/adv
Project EGO: worth mentioning
Malice Platformer
Shrek Platformer
Azurik 3rd person act/adv
Xavier Fox: Will probably be the best game ever made when it hits in Spring of 2002.
And plenty more but you get my point,I hope. Don't forget these are just the first year games coming,you get another 4 years or so after these, just think how great those will be.
NO ONE can say the XBOX will not have "A" titles,there are many many titles coming.For someone to say that XBOX will not have great titles of it's own is just as idiotic as someone saying that PS2 will have nothing much coming.
Get all the systems,and if you cannot afford them all then don't ridicule the one or ones you cannot afford for that reason. They all offer fun and quality, and that's the bottom line. And if I could only get one it would be an XBOX. And this does not mean that the Gamecube and PS2 are lousy,they too are very nice options for tons of fun.
I think of it like this in a much smaller way of course: I'd rather have all three, Ferrari, Mansion, and lear jet than just one of them.
