This year's april fool's jokes I have enjoyed:
It's naughty to joke about games' reklease dates, especially when said games are late...
Assassin Creed is moving in a new direction...
Team Fortress 2 upgrades the sniper unit with a nice "recycling" feature.
Blizzard takes this April fool's business VERY seriously. A new "Transformer" unit in StarCraft 2, a new class in Diablo 3 (the Archivist that dies with a simple touch) and a dance battle system in WoW. I wish they would actually implement that...
Since all of this comes from Kotaku, I might as well include their own round up.
(but I'd like to add I spotted those as they got posted... ;)
Google made 1 announcement that looks fishy as well, actually... More from Google here. The Pandatastic IA CADIE is just brilliant. And 3d Chrome is not bad either... :)
Since I follow the release of upcoming WiiWare title Swords & Soldiers, I had a good laugh at their April 1st announcement... Space marines when everyone would expect ninjas? Naaaaa!
Nine Inch Nails release a new free paying record! Between the cover, the desciption and the tracklist, there's a lot to enjoy here... :D
Warner Bros bought The Pirate Bay!
Brittish newspaper The Guardian ran an article saying that they would now only publish news on Twitter. And they also made a Twitter feed!
And Seti@Home reported they received an alien message. I couldn't listen to it (it was sent to subscibers) but I'm guessing it was interesting...
Great year, all in all...
I like seeing people going crazy like that...
This blog was born from a very simple question: "How much do I want to annoy people by sending emails about general stuff they might not be bothered with?". The answer being "Not much" I thought it would be better to just put all these things “somewhere” and tell people where to look if they want to. So here is “somewhere”: a dump of things I like, things that I find interesting, funny, shocking. Pretty much anything. Comments are welcome, whether in English or en Francais!
Other things of potential interest...
