Also, funny how the way to do April Fools know is to post the news on the 31st instead the actual day.

Yes, because clearly, every April Fools news/joke should start according to a specific country's timezone. Never mind that Japan and the other Far East countries were already on April 1st.

I'm not sure where to post this and I don't want to start a new thread but how I do view the replies in which people quoted me? I remember this was a feature sometime ago but I can't find the page now.

I work for xbl support, getting a ton of calls over cod ghost having playlist changed to some weird and even vulgar stuff. Any confirmation on whether this is an early April fools prank or compromised servers?

This is an April Fool's Day joke, right? It's got to be. This guy is claiming he is working on PASBR2 and info will be coming soon (4/2/14). I would like to see it come true, though.

We are working on a little game called PlayStation All-Stars 2

We’re also happy to announce that Noah Sasso of Bara Bari Ball fame is coming on as a guest designer.

We’ll have news, screenshots and a trailer to release on 4/2/2014.
Keep your eyes on The PlayStation Blog!

Ok, this works but it's a pretty ghetto way to do it. Why isn't such a simple function implemented in the menu of gaf? After all, this a pretty well maintained and big forum. So many possible replies missed by many as they can't constantly recheck the threads.

If the game is rated Mature, why are people complaining about this?

Because my 10 yr old won't stop screaming racial and homophobic slurs into his headset and this has to be the reason!

My child should be able to shoot friends and strangers in the dick all day without being exposed to shit like this!

Didn't PASBR totally bomb and such? Plus it seems like suicide to be revealing it, and presumably releasing it, right when Smash 4 is reaching its high-point.

I wouldn't call selling 1 million copies a failure. Especially for such a relatively low budget game. Also, how exactly is Smash 4 reaching a high point? I haven't heard anything about it since last E3.

Don't get me wrong - this is definitely a joke/hoax. But be assured we'll get another collaborative fighting game from Sony at some point in the future.

Smash 4 has had regular updates every week day since E3, there's been two new characters revealed in the last few months alongside quite a lot of returning characters, more of it will be shown off at this year's E3, it's releasing this year...

I would say that no one's really following Smash 4 at this point outside of diehard Nintendo fans. Little Mac got some attention this year, but it won't be until E3 that the general public starts to really get the buzz.

Well that's what I mean, Smash 4 is reaching its high point in terms of pre-release buzz as we'll be getting a release date soon.

I'm not trying to hate on PSA, I bought the first one and really hope the news of a sequel is true, I just think it benefited the first one to be released during a period where Brawl was dated and Smash 4 was a distant dream, and announcing the second one when Smash 4 is going to get a lot of buzz in June just seems odd.
