It shouldn't be something plausible just made to get fanboys' hopes up and then crush them. Also note that press releases don't tend to come out on Saturdays. |
Actually, this never even got my hopes up for a second. I got about 2 sentences in and was certain it was fake. It really wasn't presented properly, and it's actually the LACK of plausibility that I feel designates that prank as lame.
Hell, I considered Kingdom Mushroom Hearts to be one of the best April Fools Jokes I've ever seen, purely because of how plausibly it was pulled off. Same thing for the announcement for Lego Halo, which I could see turning out just as successfully as Lego Star Wars.
I'm hoping that with a bit of work, I might be able to get my Hyrule Collection up to those standards.
