April Fools Recap [WARNING! Image and video overload]
Reaprar | 1:10 PM on 04.01.2008 22 comments


So today I made it my own personal mission to get fooled in every possible way and post everything I can find here, and here is this year's recap.


Ofcourse I'll start with destructoid's own little april fools - foxtoid, The entire front page was changed, all the editors got little moustaches on their avatars and would only post in foxnews style posts about the devil's games.


Sadly, Newgrounds didn't even bother changing anything, poor show newgrounds, poor show.


YuGiOh Abridged went with the simple, yet effective 'This account has been suspended' message, which at first made me think they just forgot to pay the bill.
[UPDATE] The site's back up.. and well.. it's.. it's.. I don't wanna ruin it, click the link yourself, I'm going to go cry.


Kotaku went with 'kaketaku' taking a self-parody and posting mostly cake-related news items, and then went on to post 'Assasin's gear solid' very well done and these definetly made me chuckle.


IGN went with a 'Legend Of Zelda Movie Debute' posting a (very well done) fake trailer for a legend of zelda movie, I was actually quite impressed.


Next up - Xkcd simply redirected to the (terrible) comic Questionable Content however..

Apon Visiting 'Questionable Content' you get redirected to 'Qwantz' (or, the dinosaur comic) and then visiting Qwants would take you to..

Xkdc, ofcourse! This was actually really clever and I applaud the sites involved, good show.

INTERMISSION!

DeathSponge NotePants!


Even Microsoft got in on this year's fooling at their xbox website, posting several fake items including the 'Vintage' xbox and a little parody of the NintendON.


ThinkGeek went with several fake items, my favorite is the usb pregnancy test.


Chris Pirillo went ahead and staged a fight with his wife on his live stream last night, and the following day posted a video claiming that he's stopping live streaming in a very serious manner, then went with the traditional Rickroll, his chat room has been full of people being fooled all day.


Smosh claimed that they were sued by pokemon for $20 million in copyright infringements, begging it's viewers to buy their stuff, which includes, but is not limited to, their personal shirts, shoes, their youtube comedy award, spongebob boxer shorts, and more.


Several british newspapers have had stories, the telegraph created a video about flying penguins.


The Daily Star went with some story about james bond being bisexual, I don't know I don't read that crap.


The Mirror did a pretty funny story about dog racing on ice.


The Official Google Blog made a funny little blog post about google and virgin apparently joining to make 'Virgle'. I liked the name Googvirg better myself.

INTYMISHUNZ!

CANADIAN KETCHUP, IT TASTES BETTER THAN AMERICAN KETCHUP! I CAN CONFIRM IT!


Here's a little known one, the popular Mugen website Mugen infantry changed their entire website to "Imagination Land" I found it really fuckin' hilarous, they also published several april's fools mugen characters that do 999hits and take no damage.


This one isn't so much april fools, but I found it funny. Maybe I'm just immature but 'Sexersize' just made me laugh.


Google Austrailia have developed new GDAY technology so that you can search Into the future!


All of Youtube UK's featured videos lead to rickroll.


Google Mail introduces, Gmail Custom time! Send emails to the past and you'll NEVER be late!


Earthcam put up a new 360 degree cam of 'Time square' I thought it was pretty witty, the box rotates with clocks around the cube and images of 'Thyme'.


Even NASA fooled with the aprils this year, with the rogue robot 'Dextre the Magnificent'


Ed Boon Posts his hidden message saying that he's leaving midway to become a cook.

This one's pretty amazing I don't wanna ruin it, (click the heart)
FINAL INTERMISSION!

Do you want a piece of meat? (Parody of britney's 'Piece of me')

And that's all I got today, April Fools everybody.

[Yes, there's alot more but I'm Lazy, I might update with more later.]

[Kay, so Deviant art changed everyone's avatars to mudkips and College Humor created a myspace page with an average myspace user's dad bought her college humor, happy now?]
