....So you're wandering along a winding tree-lined pathway at dusk, when suddenly you stumble upon a leprechaun burying treasure.

Now according to myth and legend, leprechauns (especially when cornered) grant human beings three wishes, and this little fellow is no different.

The leprechaun stands up straight, points at you and says in high-pitched Irish accent: "You're a gamer aren't you? Okay, I'll give you Three Gaming Wishes; they'll all come true soon enough - guaranteed."

What (in this curious circumstance) would you wish for?

Mine would be:

*WISH 1: that there is an universal super console which can play all games regardless of format.

*WISH 2: that a games' developer would create an arcade blaster that would take 100 hours to complete, had an interesting storyline, and yet kept intact the old skool arcade/action gameplay.

*WISH 3: that every Dollar I make on Crazy Taxi is magically transferred into my bank account.

If you happened to stumble upon this wish-granting leprechaun, what would be your 3 Gaming Wishes?

Wish 1a) That Microsoft go out of the console business!
1b) That Sony improve their quality of consoles!

Wish 2) That Nintendo reduce their prices to reasonable amounts.

Wish 3) That Nintendo and Sega join forces! (before the Playstation I would never have said that!)

Wish 1) For gaming to make you more attractive to the opposite sex.

Wish 2) For some clerical error to result in me being sent copies of every game and console released, free of charge.

Wish 3) I wish for conclusive proof thjat heaven exists, and they're crazy about gaming up there.

1) Game prices reduced significantly.
2) For actual virtual reality to become common place in all games.
3) For games that require more thought and planning if you are going to win.
