I love that so called april's fools joke topic

Yes, it's hilarious that a huge joke article on Gamespot ended up being a more accurate analysis than most "professional" analysts. Here's probably my favorite part of it.

"Remember, today's gamers grew up playing Mario Bros. and Zelda, some of the best games of all time. They're out there now as the industry's main consumers. The ability to play thousands of games, all priced in the five-dollar range, without leaving the house is very attractive. Gamers don't want to buy a PS3. They prefer a good system with nostalgia over a system with prettier graphics. Games are meant to be one thing--fun."

Games meaning to be fun apparently is a joke to Gamespot. =P

Wow. I hadn't heard of this April Fool's joke. That last line is fucking beautiful. What a great "joke." I guess I'm supposed to laugh because fun is the last thing I want out of my home media center/George Foreman Grill.

For your viewing pleasure! What looks to be pork chops!
