vile gaming a joke because it refers to other jokes?
Other than that, it doesn't seem that much of a stretch...

The youtube one was kind of weird, it only did it for one video, so I just thought that one vid was screwed up. Strange

Heh, I think Wikipedia's traditional response to April 1st is to fill the front page with as many unlikely, but genuine, encyclopedia entries as they can fit there (apart from the list of News articles, all of which are presumably jokes.)

Wow gosugamer's one was so bad, awful english/idea made it worthless. At least make them very slightly believable to gullible people like TL or VG did.

I mean if it's not believable, at least make it funny...

Google always has some of the best April 1 jokes.

EDIT:
This is Blizz's real joke. lol, good stuff

http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/games/mobile/

Blizz's newest game:

[image loading]


* Sweeping saxophone soundtrack
* Literary consultation from “A Couple of Dudes from Mar Sara”
* Comes on 17 floppy disks
* A revolutionary Digital Rights Management (DRM) scheme in 5 easy steps:
o Open the Spin-A-Spacer DRM application on any smart phone*
o Line up the spacer faces to reveal the page/word matrix value
o Consult your player guide / lore manual, and turn to the appropriate page
o Use the special 3d lenticular glasses to decode the margin text and find the keyword passphrase
o Enter the special passphrase into the on-screen prompt
o Speak “OK” clearly and audibly into the device’s audio input
o ENJOY! (Occassionally, you may be asked to call a toll-free 800 number to verify your identity)

And more:

Google actually had dozens of jokes, many of which were linked by the Topeka page. The best Google joke was, IMO, GAG.

IMO what would have been really badass would be a fake release of stick RPG 2 from them

edit: O shit, the game leads you too a youtube video preview of stick RPG 2 :O

idk if its a joke or not :'(

Released a game entitled 'Epic Beard Man' today. =P

It's badass.

IMO what would have been really badass would be a fake release of stick RPG 2 from them


haha, god yes. <3 Xgen.

The company I work for, a big, family-owned dutch company named PON, publicized on their website that they had bought a small airline company based in the US. Then they sent a spam to the whole company saying that to celebrate the take-over their employees could have special prices on certain destinations (20$ to go to New York or Chicago, you just had to register on the website).

Apparently as of this evening they had recorded more than 5000 registrations.

Do personal jokes count?

I took a cup full of chad and tied it to a string and placed it inside a co-worker's overhead credenza. I tied the string to the front door.

When he opened it up, chad went everywhere. EVERYWHERE.

Even in his keyboard. Later on today, he hit "delete" to delete an email, and the key must have stuck down because of the chad underneath it, and it deleted everything in his inbox.

Did one in schools, my class. We all went to another homeroom in the beginning and hid from our teacher. Our principal called on the intercom, "Mr. Monigle's (my teacher) class is missing) and we laughed like hell

Heh, I think Wikipedia's traditional response to April 1st is to fill the front page with as many unlikely, but genuine, encyclopedia entries as they can fit there (apart from the list of News articles, all of which are presumably jokes.)

Well, all of the news articles are jokes partially based in fact.
