    I have to admit the video for Assassin's Creed is pretty awesome, but I've always been partial to Blizzard's pranks. And there's always this...

    FYI, that link only has a very small selection of game pranks.

    Edit: Here's a great rundown of the gaming-industry pranks: http://www.ign.com/wikis/april-fools-day-game-pranks/2012 (also seems to have a bunch of the more general ones at the bottom)

    I like the AC Kinect one, Blizzard's account authenticator+tamagotchi and Notch's Mars Effect.

    My personal favorite was Guild Wars' Terminator parody event.

    My favorite April Fools joke would have been Street Cleaning Simulator. Unfortunately, it wasn't a joke, nor did it come out in April.

    Hahaha, they even tested it. I especially like the last of the Cons. Very relevant.
    Hope they make a 2012 edition.

    "Cons
    • Gets boring after a while
    • Not much action
    • Too easy
    • Signs are in German"
