Xbox Poem, by James Woodcock

The console world was smaller,
Sega had left the room,
Along came Microsoft,
To make an almighty boom.

For they had an idea,
That would change the way we think,
It would have everything a gamer wanted,
Except the kitchen sink.

Sony and Nintendo,
Scrambled to take the hold,
But time was running out,
As the Xbox was to unfold.

For it was faster and crisper,
Of all the motley crew,
But would this all take off,
No one really knew.

Intel and NVIDIA,
All had a claim,
To help this latest console,
Get a brand new fame.

The new console was released,
Expectations were running high,
Games like Halo and Abe,
Were surely a must buy.

Complaints of the controller,
For it was very very big,
But dazzled by the graphics,
They didn’t give a fig.

For Halo was a triumph,
A masterpiece for sure,
Made PC games look boring,
The Xbox was the cure.

With Dolby Digital Sound,
Whole new games to play,
Why do we have to go to work,
I want to use it all day.

3 weeks have now passed,
and now we do so adore,
the newest greatest console.
With which we do “Play More”.

(((Sorry I was up all night, and had to write something :) )

Pretty good actually. ;-)) Don't normally read poems, but I tend to read all the subjects on the X-Box forum so I thought I'd change the habit. ;-)

Anyway, very good poem. :-)
