Actually, it was 99% honesty and 1% joke...

i thought it was...but just on the off chance you weren't...
If you leave some monkeys in a room with a typewriter, they'll eventually produce Shakespeare.
If Microsoft had left a team of monkeys alone in a room with a pair of scissors and some sticky-back plastic, the X-Box controller might have even been half as good as the Gamecube one.

Yes. It is a joke.
- To physically move an X-Box, you need a forklift truck, whereas to move a Gamecube you need an arm, fingers and an apposable thumb. The majority of people own an arm, fingers and an apposable thumb, whereas not many people own a forklift truck, thus making the X-Box somewhat difficult to get home after you buy it.
- Expanding on the fact that X-Box is, well, huge... is it really true that you can fit a christmas tree (standard size), a newborn baby AND Jade from Big Brother inside it? Oh and is it true that while Gamecube's design was conjured up by a talented and skilled team of designers, X-Box needed 10 architects to design it?
- Right then. X-Box has DVD playing capabilities. All well and good, but there are a few problems with that.
1) In this hi-tech day and age, many people already own a DVD player.
2) You need to fork out 25 odd quid for the DVD remote! Geez!!! If this isn't the most blatant money making scheme from a company that is already the most money-hungry team of cash-*****s in existance, I don't know what is.
3) Games console. See the words "DVD player" in there? No. And is there really a need for a games console to play DVD's? No.
I rest my case.
