Sure, and I did say it wasn't a good launch.
It was far from a disaster in context, though. The 360 had a whole year's head start (almost two in Europe), and it was already a massive hit, particularly in the US, by the time Sony hit the market.
People were (rightfully) disappointed by the spec and the launch lineup and (not so rightfully) bummed out by the price, but it was far from a disaster and it fully turned around by the end of the generation.
