This year’s April Fools theme seems to be “Anything Funny” (a couple of years ago, the theme was “Company/Game Mergers"), and I can say that I had good laugh with this year’s jokes even though these are obviously part of the April Fools celebration (mind you, many still fell to these jokes).
Follow up:
Jumpgate Evolution to change to Jumpgate Intelligent Design
From MMORPG.com:
The American Standards Senate has requested that NetDevil’s Jumpgate Evolution change its name to Jumpgate Creationism, or at least offer an expansion of the same name alongside of the original product. The request comes after the conservative organization became concerned that impressionable children might confuse the title with Darwin’s theories on the evolution of man.

World of Warcraft: The Molten Core
WoW is coming to the consoles, introducing the raid dungeon “The Molten Core". Funny though, as this is very familiar to me… I know I read this “World of Warcraft: The Molten Core” for the console somewhere… months before today.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King 2nd Hero Class
Finally, someone understood us role-players.. the best class to role-play is back - the Bard!
New Hero Class Revealed: Bard
The deeds of every great hero inspire countless songs of triumph, virtue, and epic adventure. But although a hero’s glory endures in song, the creators of those songs are seldom remembered. After ages spent singing of the heroic exploits of others, the bards of Azeroth are finally stepping into the spotlight on their own terms, proving once-and-for-all that while just about anyone can pick up a sword or cast a spell, only a true hero can vanquish evil with the power of ROCK!

StarCraft II New Terran Unit: Tauren Marine
Straight from Planet Azeroth comes the new Terran Unit, the Tauren Marines!
The obscure planet of Azeroth was found to harbor a dizzying selection of humans, mutants, and aliens in a state of perpetual superstition and conflict. The most physically imposing of these warrior races were the so-called ‘tauren’, an anthropomorphic bovine genotype with super-human stamina, overpowered racial combat abilities, and bizarrely well-developed horticultural skills.

(I told ya, WarCraft and StarCraft are on the same universe, the *Craft Universe!)

Even though it is not being observed here in the Philippines, still, Happy April Fools Day everyone! And to all those who fell for it…. try again next year..
