Kotaku Originals_ April’s News
Published on October 22, 2025
Before the Internet, we didn’t have April Fool’s Day. When we played a joke, we’d tell a guy his shoe was untied and then WHAM! bash him upside the head with a piece of firewood.
See? That’s funny. You kids couldn’t find funny with both hands and a map. And you should be glad we didn’t play April Fool’s around here like we did in my old neighborhood. Or like some other sites and blogs did. Of course, that means nooobody was listenin’ to all that stuff we said about the $99 PlayStation 2 but then – BAM – turned out to be true, didn’t it?
Here’s this week’s roundup of original, true news reporting. Again, we had lots to add to this year’s GDC09 Coverage. Be sure to check the GDC09 Tag and our final roundup of headlines.
