AND THE WINNER IS...
Judging by the sales reports we're starting to get, it looks like everyone went nuts for games over the break. For those of you curious about the "winners" of the holiday season - if this were the Olympics, the PS2 would be at the top of the podium with Xbox at number two, and Gamecube bringing up the rear looking slightly pissed for being pipped at the post by a slim margin.
It was a pretty close battle, and towards the end of the year we even heard that the Xbox was actually starting to catch up with the PS2 in terms of day to day sales. Apparently Halo really is the killer app to end all killer apps. Let's face it - there still isn't an enormous list of must-buy games for the Xbox aside from it. Beyond Halo, DOA3 and Max Payne, there are a few "hmmm...OK" chin-strokers like NFL Fever. But look further and you're into the realm of Johnny-Sports-Star-No-one-Gives-A-Crap-About- Extreme-Moto-Cross-Boarder-Skater-Surf-Dude 2. Or Cel Damage.
