I think Blizzard has some of the best gags. Matchmaking!

And then this. Except I wish Blackthorne 2: Thorne Harder was real.

"5 easy steps"  ;D

I'd love to see a new Blackthorne, maybe updated along the lines of Shadow Complex.

Haha, I love the Queen's Quest play on Space Quest, from the "ingine" to the graphics to the "two dudes from Andromeda".

The best April Fools joke is this one from 2006. Reading it today it doesn't even read like a joke at all.
