If you stopped by The Geek Whisperer last Thursday, you might have noticed that I am a fan of April Fool’s Day pranks. Aside from the iProbe, here are some of my favorite pranks for 2010:
Bungie
The next Halo game: I’d play it. No joke.
Google Translate for Animals:
IGN
Epic Sesame Street: The re-imagining of these classic character into twisted distortions of their actual selves is impressive. I’m partial to “Big-Ass-Bird”.
ThinkGeek
Dharma Initiative Alarm Clock: Apparently this is really funny if you’re a Lost fan.
iCade – iPad Arcade Cabinet: This is a joke, but I actually think it’s kind of cool. Who knows, maybe ThinkGeek will make this one real. Last year’s Tauntaun Sleeping Bag started as a prank product… but then they actually made them.
My favs are always the Thinkgeek jokes (with Google in a close second). Hell, they even started manufacturing the TG Tauntaun sleeping bag joke from last year!
