April fools and the internet.

Hehehe, those two were really cool! Seems /. is collecting jokes from other techsites all across the net and reporting them as news... That is really embracing the spirit. ^_^

the gamefaqs one was really good, IMO.
I liked Blizzard's, can't wait to eat at BurgerCraft
And Wisps as alliance race in the WoW - Burning Crusade, with their tree form which raises their spirit but makes their possibility to dodge and parry axes by 50% was just brilliant too

I am speechless! You must be joking nutball!
Well, not entirely on-topic, but Adult Swim over at Cartoon Network's doing some interesting stuff for this April fools day. First, they aired some sort of Chuck Norris ninja cartoon. Then they aired Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex with a long series of farts dubbed into the sound track. I stopped watching after they did the same with Full Metal Alchemist, but I seriously hope they don't do it for Evangelion tonight....I haven't seen that episode!
Saw that one. Would have been funny if it weren't for the fact that it's a sad testament to what the overabundance of crappy blogs are doing to the internet. It's ever harder to find an original source due to the circle-jerking link habbits of blogs and blog aggregators! Information overload? More like information roundabout...Chalnoth said:

BTW: What was the Gamefaqs joke?
