I caught you this time, EGM
 
"...that is, if you pick up EA Games' Middle-earth-set kart racer tentatively titled The Lord of the Rings: Mordor GP."(quote from EGM#177(april issue, hint, hint), page 46)

Oh ha ha EGM. You almost had me fooled. The date april 1st is even displayed in the lap time in the screen shot. Sorry I don't have a link. This stuff is new and they haven't added it to the EGM website yet.

Anyway, dicuss! Were YOU fooled?

LOL, that's very funny. I hadn't seen that one, but do you remember last year's?

Su'Ravan 03-20-2004 08:45 PM

...u mean to say that EGM actually fools u with those...yes and i rember last years... my freind almost stole his brothers xbox for that...

C-dog 03-20-2004 08:46 PM

Last years, last years... oh yeah! It was the fake nude codes for DoA: extreme beach volleyball. That was a good one.

I don't subscribe to EGM, I've less money than those who are dirt poor (possible exageration). I don't even get to pick up the occasional issue. :( woe is me... but I'm over it now.

You might want to scrape up enough for this one. Seanbaby goes to a cosplay convention.

I liked the picture. Gandalf sitting in a wooden go-kart as it tightly hugs the curve...just feels right, like what Tolkien would have done given more time.

Yeah, the missing kart racing chapter while they were in Rivendell.

Gah. I ended up HATING that joke - no amount of protest on my part would make my friends believe it wasn't true.
Friend: "But I saw it on other places too!"
Me: "That's because people like you KEEP TELLING OTHER PEOPLE WITHOUT CONSULTING YOUR COMMON SENSE FIRST!"

But that's what made it so great! People were so gullible that a lot them bought the game just for the fake codes... hrmm, maybe that's NOT so great. Maybe this year's is damage control?
