No, i didn't copy this from the PS2 mag, so don't say anything. This is purely out from my heart. erm... Enjoy!
Sony Microsoft and Nintendo are the three biggest Computer games companies, but if they were kids, what would they be like?
Microsoft –
Name: Scrooge
Why? – Like Scrooge, Microsoft are mean, ruining things, e.g. Companies (Buying every single one)
Age: 35 (hypothetically)
Address: Somewhere secret in America
Occupation: Gangster
Height: 6 3”
Weight: 16 St
Hobbies: Spending all of his money buying expensive things (Sega, Nintendo etc.) Occasionally gives money to Charity to keep a name for himself.
Background: Lives with goons (Rare), and builds software. Has a “Grown up” reputation, because of games like Halo, Splinter Cell, and has no “Kiddy” games.
General: Until recently Scrooge enjoyed making hi-tech software for PC’s, then something terrible happened, he realised how rich he was, and went insane, trying to take over the Computer gaming world. He only succeeded in taking over one company (Rare). As this was his first attempt, he let it get to his head, and he tried to take on Sega and Yoda (Nintendo). As these two companies feel the force (they recognise what Scrooge is trying to do) they declined, no one knows who Scrooge will target next.
Nintendo –
Name: Yoda
Why? – Like Yoda, Nintendo are extremely experienced, and like Yoda, Nintendo feel the force, only it’s different, Yoda can hover, and defy gravity, Nintendo can read the minds of people worldwide, and give them the games they want.
Age: 120
Address: Somewhere in Tokyo
Occupation: Game Guru
Height: 2 9”
Weight: 12 ST
Hobbies: Providing children with laughter, and Mario. Making games.
Background: Lives with Mario, Link, Zelda etc. in a castle, where he thinks up brilliant and innovative ideas.
Yoda likes living it up with the gang, Sega and Namco, in a special place. When they first became friends, they called themselves The Tri-force. With this new name they decided to make several toys (games). These games would go into toy stores, (Computer shops) worldwide also they would go into arcades, I couldn’t think of a metaphorical equal. The first ‘toy’ these masterminds are making is called F-Zero GC/Arcade.
Sony -
Name: Electric 6
Why? – To be honest, I ran out of ideas. But it’s not that bad, I mean they do make electronic devices, more than 6, however.
Age: 30
Address: The Electric Factory
Occupation: Electronic
Height: 6 2”
Weight: (Disclosed) which means…
Hobbies: Doing stuff with electronics.
Background: Gets occupation from the fact that he/she makes basically everything that’s electric. Basically, Electric 6 is ya basic ordinary guy, nothing spectacular amazing, but not bad. Bit of a lazy tw@t, didn’t really spend much time thinking through the PS2, but it still made a great success in the gaming world. However, still making games, well, about 3, but there you go.
I’d like to take this time to reassure you that I do not mean to offend anyone, it’s just a laugh, so don’t put your screaming boots on yet, wait till my next spoof!
Thanks for reading.

Yeah, i can see why, Splinter Cell, Fable (When it comes out), Halo. But for someone like me, who has the two others, there doesn't seem to be any immediate reason to purchase one.
