For example, one of my favorites involved another forum I frequent.

They redirected one of the major forums on site (one I visit compulsively every day) to a forum that everyone in that forum hates.

It pissed so many people off, but was a good laugh

The ones on vizzed were the best. I don't visit many sites though but the ones I did visit didn't seem to participate in it at all.

My favorite online April Fools Day joke was from BBC. It was very straight forward.

Well I'm not sure about "Best" but I did see a lot of people up in arms about a post they saw on the web saying that Nintendo had cancelled the 3ds and was now going to be a third party developer for iPad and iphone it was pretty funny seeing people freaking out about it.

This was probably one of the best years I've ever seen for April Fools jokes around the internet. I'll list a few

IGN did a trailer for a Mass Effect Cartoon:


Probably my favorite is Google's 8-Bit Google Maps:

Basically the demonstrate a NES/Famicom game that you hook up your internet too and you can use Google Maps on it. Very very cool.


IGN lists a ton here:

Davideo7 :

I don't know if you've ever heard of the site, CRACKED, but I recently went on there and saw those two as well as a few other gaming related April Fools Day jokes.

The Mass Effect Cartoon was beyond hilarious... And I actually tried out the google maps one

Nothing will ever beat IGN's Zelda the Movie trailer from a few years ago. It looked so cool that I was hoping Nintendo would take interest and actually do a movie.

Unfortunately... I don't think I saw that one. If you would be so kind to link me at your own convenience that would be great.

(preferably once the server turns over. I don't want to inconvenience you.)

Let's see....
Assemblergames had yet another "fake prototype release".
Sonic Retro this year had an in-jokey "Cheat Code" in the forums which stabbed at a very recent issue involving the Sonic 2 HD project.
There was also that "Mario is Missing" prototype hype....

One gaming press site posted a quick article about Mega Man Legends 3 being revived and immediately re-cancelled.
Daizex became Kanzenshuu, but that turned out to not really be a joke.
Same goes for Toonami on Adult Swim for that night.

Unfortunately Satellablog had no April Fool's gag...

hmmm....

I think I'm leaning towards Google Maps 8-bit.

The best april fools joke i found on the net would be.
To get some fake snow and spray it on the outside of they window and then spray some on the ground. Wake them up and tell them that it was snowing and then tell them to go outside where they will find that it wasn't really snowing. It works on little 6 year old kids that never seen snow before.

It's an old classic one, but it was on April's fools day so it worked great.


If nobody knows what the infamous 'Scary Maze Game' is, well, you know what happens. If not, google it just for quick explanation.


Anyways, a guy did it to his friend on April's Fools, and the guy got so scared, he screamed once. Screamed twice; reared his fist back and literally punched his fist through the monitor. Steam and sparks fly and everything. I was absolutely stunned.



Makes my phobias look small in comparison from somebody doing THAT.
