How accurate it actually is, i cant be 100% sure.....this was from news posts just before the actual launch date.

Crazy Taxi for Playstation 2 was chosen by Datel because its supposedly the Highest TOC CD for Playstation games, AFAIK.

By launch titles I strictly mean the first EU release as Datel are based in the UK.

Im not sure of which of those games were UK only, but the news article did mention both UK & US launch dates along with that list.

UK was Nov 24 and US was Nov 26 for the launch dates.
