Why do you people persist in doing this stupid crap every year?  Just curious.  I've never been much of a practical joke person and I simply don't see the appeal of it.

Commander Shepard: *stares blankly at a video of scantily clad asari dancers* ...What kind of hotel is this?
Liara T'Soni: It is a luxury resort with an... exotic edge.  Azure is slang for a part of the asari body in some places on Illium.
Shepard: Where?
Liara: The lower reaches, near the bottom.
Shepard: I meant, "where on the asari body?"
Liara: So did I.

I'll complain about whatever I want, whenever I want!

But, if you had actually made the entire Mega Man X 9 game all by yourself, then that would have been a funny joke.

I checked TMMN a while ago; not many people were amused either. It won't be long until any joke, April Fools or no, will be met with five replies of "[dark hold]".

True...so true... ;)

They have no life and want to screw with people. I take jokes way too seriously...

I mean, if Capcom and every other gaming company makes jokes like this, how will the gamers take them seriously?

Lastly, Blizzard did something like this related to their new WoW expansion, Wrath of the Lich King but it was a class called Bard, which played hilariously like Guitar Hero crossed with a Rock Band Interface. Sure, it was an April Fool's Joke, but it would've been cool to rock out in Azeroth

Thats it, we're moving April Fools to August 19th, end of story. Now shut up.

The thing is, I laugh very, very easily (ie: Gotham's above post), and I don't get it.  A hoax is not a joke.  A joke has a punch-line, and/or something reasonably unexpected.  But RPM seems to get more and more unoriginal as the years go by.

They could have at LEAST had a screenshot thumbnail link to Gutsman's ass or something.  Same nonexistent originality with only a slight improvement on effort could have gone a long way.

Normally people say "This"
But since I don't conform, I'll say "That" instead.

so...

That.

You know, you're not a mod, so don't act like one.

Even better, let's make a ROM hack full of GutsMan bending over!

its called whoever put it together didnt have the time to do more than 3 screens? if they had actually made another bootleg magazine scan, and maybe some quotes from "capcom people" then it would have been better. but this time, it was a bit too crude considering things like Rockman Dash DS, Rockman Forte DS, and the RM9 "screenshot" that BBD made.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

To the people in this thread going "hur hur, joke am laem, April Foolz sux", do better yourselves, please? As someone who values laughter and a good time from any & all angles, this is just depressing.

Actually, I can still see a good laugh coming from this if I just think about how silly/"serious buisness" you unnamed few are being in response to an obvious prank.

God help you all if I start real pranks on you. ;D

Hey, I *WISH* someone would try real pranks for April Fools.  As mind-scarring as PMM's Nana/Wily switcheroo was back in the day, it's at least funny to look back.

GA is old....
Your point is what?  SNES-style X9 was old about four seconds after MM9 was confirmed.

Well, MM9 took the Classsic Series back to the NES, MMX9 should take the X Series back to the SNES.

No because I know I couldn't do any better.

Still it would have been less obvious if the prankster had made the Axl sprite themselves instead of stealing one from some yobbo.

Because no one locked this thread yet.

Because this thread is a mod started one; thus it will only stop when the author wants it to.

Well, if you guys wanted to make this topic lame, you've certainly succeeded.

Happens every year though, so it's sort of like a community sucking tradition.

I have to admit the screen shots are "convincing".
