[Olorin401]

Just a quick thing here.. the work on SE's new MMO Rapture is actually true and it's been reported on a few times since the end of last year (there's a couple threads on BG about it). The screencaps though are obv. pics from FF12 tho.

SQUARE ENIX Global Official Announcement (Apr. 1)


After much anticipation, SQUARE ENIX (SQUARE ENIX Global), is happy to announce the unveiling of its new MMORPG – RADIATA STORIES II. The new project, previously codenamed, Rapture, is set to launch this summer for Playstation3™, XBOX™, and Windows. Because of the nature of introducing a new massively multiplayer game, and the resources necessary to support such an endeavor, SQUARE ENIX is simultaneously announcing the termination of its current popular MMORPG, Final Fantasy XI. Since 2002 Final Fantasy XI has been a popular title for SQUARE ENIX, and it is with great sadness, mixed with great excitement, that we make this decision. Ultimately, we believe by choosing to support only one MMORPG, we will be able to focus our resources and provide the best in-game support and development for RADIATA STORIES II.

We thank you for your commitment to Final Fantasy XI, and hope to see you in the world of RADIATA STORIES II soon.

[Date & Time]
Apr. 1, 2008

[Details]
Effective June 31, 2008: Termination of all servers related to Final Fantasy XI.

[Cause]
RADIATA STORIES II.

Then top it off with my family's prank on me....I walk downstairs half asleep and see a big box in the kitchen. When I get closer I see its the $500 Dyson vacuum that I've been dying to get. I squeal in delight and go to open it only to have my eldest grandson pop out and yell something like "You're a Fool's Day!" (Yes, he totally murdered it but it was kind of fitting, no?) Evil, evil people....

My april fools joke Idea was to Make Feba and Murphie mods w/o banning powers, and watch the chaos unfold.

[Murphie]

I was busy at school today, so there would not have been much excitement.

[Pai Pai Master]

hay guise i sold mai ps3 and bought a exbox

aprils' fools im too big of a fanboi LOL

[Murphie]

That was a good joke man. Haha, I am laughing IRL.

[Malevolent]

I squeal in delight and go to open it only to have my eldest grandson pop out and yell something like "You're a Fool's Day!"

LOL! thats too great. I don't know what better...him butchering april fools day or or...no thats hilarious.

But it doesn't beat me when I've plastic wrapped toilet seats in my parents house when i was younger...Nothing is better than hearing "Oh Shit!" from my dad or the squeals from my mom.

The merger of Square and its rival company, Enix, took place on April 1, 2003, and was originally thought to be a joke.

IGN: Square and Enix Merge

So, do you really think this is a joke? If you were also thinking that Square merging with Enix was a joke back in 2003, you might want to think again about this one.

[Murphie]

Why would I think a fact was a joke?

[AKosygin]

No. I am not say that you now think it is a joke, but when it was announced back then, people thought that the merger was a joke; only to turn out that it was not.

So can you draw a parallel?

[Murphie]

I can barely draw a straight line without a ruler, so probably not.

I mean, I appreciate that you're committed to your joke, but maybe take it down a notch or two?

[MrMageo]

Well if it is true, I could totally get into the bunny ears thing ive already got it planned out
