Only one winner. The Judge will be Fate (my wife).
Oh yes - leave out the complete rubbish PLEASE. And if it is supposed to be the words to a tune then please tell us which tune as we don't carry a juke box of ditties in our little heads.
*er - I don't mean the staff are animals.

You actually decided to do this.
:D
Anyway, erm..... it will be my birthday soon so who feels like doing a groovy little birthday ryhme for me?
Go on..... you know you want to.
;)
You should put a rule to it, nothing superly long, just a little poem.
*hangs head in shame*
Damn, so's this.
Well...... erm...... ban me if ya like.
A contraption of wonder
And yet not so expensive
The time of reckoning has arrived
Which console will you choose?
The Xbox with the power of zeus
A range of good games there are to choose
Halo, a title of revolutionary class
Project gotham racing a game worth kudos
Then there is jet set, which is worth your cash
Then the cube of game
So small, so cute
Monkey ball, rogue leader and sunshine
all of them good
but when Zelda comes, you will see...
The PS2 now so frail
Like a granny on a zimmer frame
many titles from which to choose
so in the end you cant lose.
Enjoy my poem of wonder.
'Pat Pat' goes Phils hand...
'Miaw' goes the cat...
'Kick' goes Phils foot...
It's late, I'm bored...
What power did I feel when I first switch on thee
In a package to which i cannot hold flame
With any other appliance? Nay, not Tv nor PC nor DVD
Nor any other consumer product that I see.
What an awakening it was to see a product of thy kind
Could stand so high above the rest and stimulate my mind
And all experience it hath had of knowing beauty!
How it pains me to think of any other computer game online
I cannot do it; thou playablility hold me in thy power
I cannot stop thyself from playing thee
And so good thou art to play, computer game
Thy graphics, sound and story all combined.
And how smoothly your graphics are, thou art enchanting
When i see thou game. No other shall I allow theself to love the same.
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
With a bit of Halo here and Max Payne there,
Is there any wonder why I have lost my hair?
Rallying, Racing, Biking and Fighting,
There ain't no time for a bit of Moon-lighting!
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song, Ding, Ding.
Some people say that size doesn't matter,
But Dear Bill Gates has made quite a platter.
With the money and backing of a computing gangster,
It's hardly surprising he is quite a Skankster!
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
When playing Hunter the tension is quite scary,
I have been cleaning my boxers with a bottle of fairy.
Some people say I am strange for singing a song,
But the Xbox demands so the show must go on!
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
The customer service department is ran by chimps,
But with all that money they have surely got to skimp!
Xbox Live is looking quite exciting,
But playing online seems bafflingly frightening.
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
Ringing Bill Gates is like talking to a wall,
After demanding for his money it turned to a brawl.
As his wife joined they began to start cheating,
But like Master Chief his power wasn't depleting!
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
As the song draws to an end I will leave this thought,
Without an Xbox I would be distraught!
The future looks quite strong for the black beefy beast,
And with the deals from SR you are in for a treat!
Ding, Ding, Ding may my Xbox sing,
May my Xbox sing a song Ding, Ding.
Thanks for reading!
