Bored once more, thoughts of music domination and other non-tedious related stuff.
So I now present the inter-platform character fight to settle the age-old and quite frankly dull question of ìWhich console is betterî
And this has been written in fun, so anyone that takes this seriously needs help.
--------

PlayStation Vs PC
Fighting in the grey corner, we have Solid Snake, whilst in the other corner (choose any colour, usually a tan job though) we have Max Payne.

Solid Snake weighs in at 200lbs, a bit more with his mullet and headband. Wearing the gimp-like body-suit and hailing from somewhere mysterious, ladies and gentlemen, will you welcomeÖSolid Snaaaaaaaaaaake
And weighing in at just under 190lbs, wearing the Hawaiian-shirt and leather coat, hailing from New York City, the city so great they named it twice, please give it up Mmmmmmax Paaaaaaaaayne!

Jimmy-Lennon Jr ìOk you two, we went through the rules in the dressing room. No hitting below the belts and no hair-pulling like big girls. Letís get it on!î
*seconds out, round one*

Snake is dropping to the floor and covering himself with a big cardboard box, unorthodox but legal.
Payne is watching him with a bemused expression and cocking his shotgun.
Snake is skittering around like a dog whilst Payne is standing there watching, nobody has made the 1st move yet.
Snake is out of the box and throwing a chaff-grenade at Payne, but whatís this?
Payne moves into bullet-time and is diving around with total style. Snake is standing there whilst Payne runs around him, not shooting just showing off his most excellent moves.

This is not your typical brawl.
Ok, Payne is out of bullet-time now and Snake has pressed himself against the turnbuckle trying to be stealthy? But he can be seen by anyone, look, heís right thereÖwhat a tool.
Payne climbs the turnbuckle opposite Snake, leaps backwards in slo-mo and throws a grenade at Snake. Snake managed to climb under the box and shield himself from the blast.
This isÖodd.
Ok, Snake is now on the offensive. He has his Socom pistol and is aiming at Payne, but Payne utilises his shoot-dodge move and leaps sideways, shooting like a madman from John Woo-land.

Snake is hit! He uses bandages and dials some ropey Chinese woman on his transistor, but Payne now has dual Ingrams. More bullet-time and Snake takes it in the face!
Payne finishes his drive, coming out with a roll and reloading his Ingrams in a single-move.
Snake is dead! And no amount of overly-bad voice acting saying ìSnake? Snake!î can bring him back.
Payne is standing there looking cool with not a scratch on him.
Payne wins.

Sega vs Nintendo
Fighting in the multi-coloured corner with nice fluffy animals and big-eyed princessí we have Mario, whilst fighting out of the blue and red corner, we have Sonic The Hedgehog.

Weighing in at just over 350lbs, hailing from Little Italy, New York and wearing a boiler-suit and big hat will you please welcomeÖMmmmmariooooooo.
And hailing from a bizarre place where hedge-dwelling herbivores defeat robot-opponents, weighing in at a little over 25lbs and wearing red-sneakers, please give it up for Ssssonic The Hedgehoooooooooog

Jimmy-Lennon Jr ìOk you two, we went through the rules in the dressing room. No hitting below the belts and no using cute characters to make me sick please. Letís get it on!î
*seconds out, round one*

Mario is in the centre of the ring, running in circles and leaping with surprising agility considering heís a fat plumber in his forties with a really, really gay moustache.
Sonic is standing still doing nothing.
Mario leaps and comes back with a star? Sonic spins and attacks Mario, who leaps him and bounces on him to land on the other side of the ring, whilst Sonic stops and wonders where his golden ring is.

Mario is waving and saying ìIssa Me!î in a really cod-Italian accent, whilst Sonic says nothing. The strong and silent type.
Sonic spin attacks once more (seems to be his only attack method), whilst Mario leaps and smashes down on the little hedgehog with his fat plumber behind.
Sonic is squashed and releases a golden shower.
Of rings.

Mario is smiling inanely and running about in circles, whilst Sonic just spins about everywhere and loses his ring.
This fight is boring, where is the pixelated violence? Where is the suspense?
These two characters seem out of place without platforms to jump about to and from.

This fight is cancelled due to lack of interest.

Yes.

I put it in chat, but then realised the C5 nature of that place, so I put it in here.
More of a Channel 4 type of forum.
