In a joint decision earlier this week both Nintendo and Microsoft have announced details on their up and coming adventure. Although Nintendo weren't in 100% agreement with the name of the game however they were very happy to reach an agreement with Microsoft over what the character would be called. Halo: Moonshine will be released towards the end of the year for both the Xbox and GameCube and this is the only chance you will get to seek revenge on your least favourite company. The character will be modelled using a new graphics engine and a new graphical style as both Master Chief from Halo and Mario from... erm... Mario. The character will be Half Marine and Half Plumber which will allow gamers to where no other company has ever taken you before. Parachuting down toilets, stealth attacks down the sink and then finally gamers will take on the bath which will look strangely like a real bath. Excited? You had better be!
Both versions of the game will play differently although the Microsoft version may be £100 more expensive. GameCube owners will start the game using Mario top half of the body and the bottom half as Master Chief. As both games differ greatly from each other both Nintendo and Microsoft have been working hard trying to create a game that will entertain their loyal fans. Like the Insanity meter witnessed in Eternal Darkness the game will utilise a meter on how good you play the game. For example, if you are playing the GameCube version and the meter drops below 0 then the effects will kick in and Mario's plumbing utilities will change into futuristic weapons that will actually KILL the foes that you come across. People have criticised Nintendo for their kiddie image and fans have defended it, however only no can fans prevent Mario from turning into the monster he never was.
If you hadn't already guessed it the Xbox version of the game will act and play the opposite of the Nintendo version. Xbox owners world wide love the Macho image they receive for playing games like Halo, Splinter Cell, Max Payne and Morrowind and the only way they can protect this image is be perfecting their skills and mastering Halo: Moonshine! Due to the nature of the game an age limit can not be applied to either version and this will bring about a 'Fludd' (Mario Sunshine fans will understand the spelling) of complaints from PTA moms around the world. After speaking with a Nintendo spokesman over the ratings system he implied that after years of gaming with Nintendo there should be no excuse for dropping below 0 on the ratings system and this will prevent the use of a lethal weapon, however for the Xbox version he felt that Bill Gates and his "gang" of developers are yet to understand the meaning of Gameplay. Could this be hand bags at 10 paces or in Microsoft's case handbags with 10 pearls?
Rather like the Mike Tyson vs. Lennox Lewis fight both Nintendo and Microsoft were launching insults at each other as fast it takes immigrants to scuttle through the channel tunnel and at this speed we were struggling to keep up with the battle. Further details about the game were kept away from the naked body... I mean naked eye as fans of the two companies drooled in anticipation of rising to the challenge and proving which company really is going to take 2nd place. At the end of every level you will be required to connect to the online service of each console where your results will be automatically entered into the leader boards for everyone to see. At the start of every level there will be a cut scene from spokesman representing each company and rather like a war cry it will be a speech to motivate even the most dormant of minds.
As the anticipation levels go through the roof gamers will be given only a hand full of screenshots and necessary information about the development of each game. Nintendo will release information on how to order and how to contact them for further information and Microsoft will release information about Money and how to make Microsoft money. If you have been waiting for your chance to get your own back on unsuspecting GameCube or Xbox owners then now is your chance. With a winter release the games are set to make sales history as they try to push their respective console into 2nd place. If you haven't ordered your copy already then make sure that you do before Bill Gates hunts you down like a dog to a fox. Halo: Moonshine won't only push the boundaries of gaming but it will also set new ones for years to come and if you aren't going to be a prat... I mean part of it then you will be missing out on extending Bill Gate's swimming pool and funding Nintendo for future console names. Don't be a fool, extend Bill Gate's pool but most of all stay cool as this winter is going to get a whole lot brighter!

Cheers Gamezfreak :)
*reminisces about that topic*
It really did suck. :D
But this was about a single game, not a company merger.

Excellent.
Totally beats my attempted post, labled "Nintosoft" with games such as "Super Munch Oddshine"

Cheers Maddmun I am glad you liked it!
Heh, that's brilliant, but, what would drive MOST X-Box owners off the wall, is, if when it gets below zero, the music becomes more "Kiddie" and the graphics more "Cartoony" with no blood and powerups come in the form of coins. GO Microndo! (The name I fused toggether from the two companies*
