April Fools!

[ShadowMarth]

Post all the awesome April Fools stuff here. On the internet, accountability isnt' a problem, so there's usually tons. I'll start with ThinkGeek and Slashdot.

Slashdot had a little makeover...


Humorous frontpage products

According to a spokesman, Microsoft felt that this was a perfect opportunity to follow the crowd and try to take over the video game history by being placed up there with the classic systems. This comes to no surprise considering that Microsoft recently announced that their business practice is the same as Sega back in the early 90s.

Shigero Miyamoto was quoted to say that not only will Halo and all the other FPSs for the Xbox take full advantage of the Revolution controller; every game will feature Mario, Luigi and Peach as the “All Stars.”

“We feel at Nintendo that Mario, Luigi and Peach fit well into the games for the Xbox. Master Chief will now meet his match against Mario. Hitomi [of Dead or Alive 3] does not have the goods that Princess Peach has. Last, but not least, Luigi can take down evil warlords faster than any Ryu Hayabusa [of Ninja Gaiden]. This will be hailed as the most EXTREME video game library EVER created!”

No news as to whether or not the Revolution will be able to play PlayStation games, but talks are currently in session.

Stay tuned to DSRevolution regarding this breaking, if not shattering announcement.

Update: Revolution will in fact play PlayStation Portable games, but in lieu of this announcement, Nintendo said that there is not enough juice to play any Game Boy game [Game Boy, Color, and Advance].

This is the greatest holiday ever! lol. But I don't believe anything I read today to be honest. I have already been dupped however. I use an open-source program called Magic Set Editor, and when I opened it today it said my trial expired and I had to buy the full version! The guy who programs it (who I talk to all the time), planned this into an update weeks ago, so I never saw it coming!

Of course, Nwizard would never stoop to such a low level as to celebrate April Fools...

World of Starcraft! and BurgerCraft too!

Oh, and I can't forget the WoW Expansion announcement: Wisps are the new Alliance race!

[ShadowMarth]

Lol @ wisps. Almost believable until the skills. Permanent Death and Detonate don't work together. That's some good photoshopping from Gamespot there. I recognize most of those pics from Ghost. Vindicator isn't a normal unit.

Oh, and I'd like to order a Zerg Rush.

Edit: Whoah! Check out Slashdot. There's tons more, including a DNF review.

lmao

Also, the Control + Alt + Delete characters have switched shirts today?

Oh, and a large list of April Fool's PSAs from The Office. I saw a few of these when they aired, hilarious! I suggest the Bear one.

"# Fire Emblem Sanctuary of Strategy Forums, the largest of forums about the game series Fire Emblem, has banned many of its most important moderators, including the root admin Superbus. In addition, many other members have been randomly promoted to admin status, and various "revolution and up-rising" theme threads have popped up in various parts of the forum. Additionally, there has been an annoucement of a Fire Emblem game for the Nintendo DS, which no seems to know if it is true or not."
