We've had the console wars (with casualties on each side), we've had the opposite console wars, where we tried to defend the 'oppositions' console, so how about the console unwars?

I propose a unity of consoles, a joining of gamers from across the vast platforms of consoleland. What joins us together, makes us unite with one voice? Well, one word sums all of us up, Games. Games are the sole existence of consoles, without them they would be as useful as a chocolate teapot, so why can't we all just unite under the banner of gaming and give praise for the genius of consoles and games which light up our lives.

We all owe part of our happiness to Nintendo, Sega, Sony, Atari and everyone else who has ever made someone smile by watching a myriad of pixels fly across the screen and anyone who has ever held a controller in their hand. So let us join and rejoice in the wonder of consoles, not divide into factions and split the joyousness of gaming into smaller parts.

Cry Unity for consoles, games and gamers and let slip the shackles of platforms.

You know it makes sense!

So we have a cup of tea and a united biscuit, then a chocolate teapot too. Think of the calories...

Whats wrong with a chocolate teapot?

They would be quite useful when mountain climbing.

You see, at the top of everest, because of air pressure (or the lack of it), water boils at something like 2 degrees. At this temperature, the chocolate is nicely chilled.

So, you could make your cup of tea, then eat the teapot. This leaves no rubbish at the top of Everest, and helps to fill you up and give you energy at the same time.

See?
