April Fools Joke Heads up

in World of Warcraft
So nobody falls for it, Blizzard will probably anounce something in the next few days that isn't true.

I'm sure it will get everybody excited, with a painful blow a couple days later when we realize it's all

a farce.

    I thought that the two headed ogre was an interesting idea.  Well, it was obvious it was a april fools joke, but I thought it would be interesting to have two players cooperating simultaneously in playing a single character.



    It was sorta like...  "We are going to introduce a unique idea to the mmorpg community...!   ....  ...April fools!"

    You and me both. Although i don't generally play WoW anymore, i'm still curious as to what this year's April fools will be. They usually put alot of time and effort into them. Something you don't usually see from companies...



    "Hah! The play button actually sells your credit card information! April Fools!"

    So Blizzard didn't know anything ?who knows? why would they? There was no mention of this in their web site. Maybe gamespot asked for permission, but maybe they didn't.

    So far I love Blizzards April Fool's Jokes. WoW's two jokes so far were both really good. Coffee and Thai food ingame was maybe a bit lame, but their last one was better. Fake patchnotes and a fake race for the (then) upcoming expansion. Wisps... Lovely. Best because my friend was fooled by it.
