Pacman was live yesterday, so I was sure if it was actually an April Fool. It is brilliant though.

April Fool's Day generally grinds me down. So much neediness, so many try-hard brands.

April Fools is just awful, fiance has tried a I've won a competition to go to St Marys, meet all the players and watch a game in the box. Knew this would happen.

It's almost as bad as a forum going to Comic Sans and adding a dog....oh wait.

I like the clever ones that get you hooked in, rather than the lolsorandum gooseberry fool

Yeah, seriously, I can barely read it. Might have to abandon for the day, TBH.

Anyone located the BBC's joke story yet? I have to admit I haven't spotted it yet. Maybe the one about the great wall of sand?

There's a story up on the RTE website about Centre Parcs investing €100million in Longford creating 500 jobs. The fact people aren't sure if it's real or not shows that April Fools has gone too far.

The new Ace Attorney game (大逆転裁判 - Dai Gyakuten Saiban - Great Turnabout Court) website has been replaced by its own dog themed version (犬逆転裁判 - Dog Gyakuten Saiban - Dog Turnabout Court) for April fools. The characters for "great" and "dog" are very similar (大 and 犬 respectively) so it's a kind of Japanese orthographical pun (which gives me all kinds of nerd boners). The characters have all been given Dog based puns as well in Japanese.

Here's the trailer featuring Sherlock Hound!

Would be fine if this wasn't an April Fool tbh.

We really need to stop the April Fools stuff on this forum. April Fools is about practical jokes and hoaxes, not changing things to make them annoying, which always seems to be the idea on here.
