In order to detract away from all the serious console war topic around here, lets have but of a laugh.

Post here, some of the funniest, stupidest rumours you have ever heard.

The funnist I heard was the other day. My friend told me that PS7 was already in development. LOL. What an idiot. :P

Another one we can look back on was a few months ago. Remember when all the Nintys thought that the GC would be out in the Uk before the Xbox? LOL Topics were apearing like, "GC out before the end of February". Then they got a right kick in the nuts and Nintendo revieled it would launch in May. I'm not having a dig at nintendo fans, but common, it was funny.

LOL. Get laughing. :)

Another good one I heard was that PS2s were meant to be so powerful, they could command armies. The military were supposed to be interested in them. LOL.

I also heard a rumour when PS2 was released, that PS2s would be able to create visuals as good as those seen in the Pod race in Star Wars Episode 1.

I heard this awful rumour the other day....

'Microsoft are giving loyal customers a Reward Pack of 2 games and a controller, which will be delivered to all applicants within 28 days, just to say Thankyou!'

After waiting 35ish days, I fear this was a rumour, a horrid urban myth.

A beauty had to be a guy from Sony saying how the PS6 or something could be made from "biotechnology". ;-))

Great, just what we need, a console that acts like a brat and refuses to load games it doesn't like. ;-)) Either that or they're given sensations to feel pain so when you beat the crap out of them when a game frustrates you, you really get the satisfaction that your hurting it.
That'll teach that stupid console for cheating ! ;-))
