List Jr: Best PS2 Launch Titles

1. GunGriffon Blaze


My favorite PS2 launch title, and personal pick for the #1 spot on todays List Jr. Giant robots, big explosions, and crappy controls, what more can you ask for? The game had all the markings of a launch title, 6 levels, and I believe 4 Mechs (AWGs in GunGriffon lingo.) I actually went to GameFaqs to look up how many Mechs there were, but even the Walkthroughs didn't list how many, I must have played this game more than those nerds that write those things.

I loved the first person aspect and clunky controls that made it feel like you were really controlling a giant Mech, unlike Armored Core which played more like a 3rd person action game, though AC is great, I'm not knocking it. And the best part of all, if you played the game enough, was the Air Fuel Bomb which is probably the coolest weapon in any game at the time. If only I could unsee every awesome video game innovation I have witnessed over the ears and see the brilliance of GunGriffon Blaze once more...
