April Fools' 2019

Apr 01, 2019

Fifteen years of Grumpy Gamer being 100% April Fools' joke free. Of course the real April Fool's joke is that it's the year 2019 and we don't have moonbases, flying cars and giant pneumatic tubes that whisk us around the city. As a young child of the 70s, I was promised these things. Oh sure, I can now carry a super computer in my pocket and talk to anyone in the world via a planet wide connection of billions of computers... but come on... moonbase!

And... kudos to Microsoft for sending out this memo banning April Fools'. I guess someone there reads Grumpy Gamer.

Hoverboards! You forgot Hoverboards.

And I mean the ones from back to the future...not the things they sell now under that brand!

Don't know if you've seen it, but the cruelest april's joke is that Disney accepted to negotiate with you the Monkey Island license because of fan signs.

This reads like a Venture Bros. forum.
