I was sick all day and I get up and (as you do) check Kotaku…. That was really mean guys :P I had read the gBall gag and thought it was silly, I cycled through half dozen emails… Then I read this and I am like “oh my god they have gone too far! this isn’t right! this is… oh… April fools… grrrrrrr” . Good work guys :P

Nice try, David, but this wouldn't have fooled most people even if it wasn't April 1.

Bureaucracy takes time. To suddenly lose ratings with no warnings wouldn't happen. You would've had a better shot saying we might lose the M ratings, not that they were gone.

David, let me paint you a picture of how you fooled me.

I started reading this post and my mouth dropped open. The more I read (specifically when I reached the 'only PG games from now on' bit, my hand went to my mouth in shock.

You wanna know the last time my hand went to my mouth in shock? SEPTEMBER 11 2001 THAT'S WHEN.

For approximately 5-10 seconds, you had me hook, line and sinker. And it was horrible.

Bravo.
