Rivalry between consoles nowadays is more heated than a ladies time of the month. The Gamecubers have burst into puberty and with an uncertain cry, are calling for mature games. The X-Boxers are screaming that bigger really is better, down with skinny chicks, and that elitism rocks. The PS2 owners are far too casual to bother.

What if this never existed? Cheese will fly before no console rivalry is in effect, you mockingly cry. I sing out, loud and strong, that though this may well be true, a method of losing rivalry, is to make a universal console, a machina consola ubera if you will.

Melancholily, I, Melancholy, will guide you through The first universal console.

Name: The name of said console is obviously the most important selling point of your console. A common trend in today's popular game machines, is to call it something that it isn't, e.g (Station, Box, Cube, Boy of Games etc) . As a result, the second word of our uber console will be "Spoon", the Spoon symbolising the three C's :Cslickness, Cagility, and Cmetallicism. The first word is harder to choose, And Microsoft running away from giving it a proper first word was what made it sell terribly in Japan. The first word has to have something to do with games, so as you play games using your mind, the console will be called "Mind Spoon". "Project" will also be added because it sounds jazz. The final product will be called "Project Mind Spoon" , or more commonly abbreviated to PMS.

Slogan: Slogans are everything in a world with no attention span (notice evasion of obvious joke) with the spooky "challenge everything" whisperer children already getting a record deal, and the slogan is responsible for the Bible's success. The fairly memorable but nonsensical 3rd place marketing scam killed three children last year. The X-Box advert sued, and GameCube doesn't have one so I shall take the lovable "A planet with fear.." slogan instead. Something is wrong with today's catchy phrase monkeys. If everything was combined maybe something good can be formed : A Planet With Fear Needs To Play More In The Third Place. Sorted.

Specs: Only X-Box owners care!!11 lol. But seriously folks, it would look "SPECtacular" -X-Box owner "Yeh, it may be, I don't care" PS2 owner "Mummy wow! I'm a etc."-Guess

How: The UN would ban all consoles except this one and force every developer to develop for it, one of the many advantages of the SADDAM FOR PRESIDENT scheme.

Merry birthday and adieu.

I'm not exactly sure of the polital correctness of comparing console wars to PMT, but it made me laugh anyway.
