Microsoft began their campaign for gaming domination today with the launch of XBox in New York. Only time will tell if they will be able to survive in the cut throat world of video games. Going off the launch titles it looks like they are going to have some trouble, Halo and DOA3 looking like the only grade A titles. I suppose they'll pick up a good number of casual/first time gamers with their biggest is best advertising strategy, (I think the fact that they roped in "The Rock" at their launch event says a lot about their target market). Personally my money's down on a Nintendo Gamecube which is released in the US this weekend.
