The PS2 launch day had people queueing for days, even trailing electric sockets to the stores so the can play on the outside.
The GC launch day went with a bit of a fizz, with a couple of small queues.

The Xbox however is shaping up a treat in all areas and will have a better launch line up than that of the GC.
