Ten devastating April Fools' jokes

by Alisha Karabinus { Apr 1st 2008 at 1:30PM }


Once upon a time, April Fools' Day was an innocent little "holiday" filled with harmless pranks and jokes that never hurt a fly -- or a gamer on the Internet. Somewhere, sometime, however, we seem to have lost our way; at some point, April 1st became a minefield of heartbreaking stories that weren't, and woe to the hapless reader who believed in the amazing port, the desired sequel, or the new game announcement posted by a prankster gleefully rubbing his or her hands and cackling madly from on high.

Consider this a pre-emptive strike -- we're declaring ten things completely sacred. There are some things you just don't joke about!*

*Okay, you can, but it'll really, really hurt our feelings.
