Gamespot announced that the latest problem facing the often-delayed “Duke Nukem Forever” was that they couldn’t make it fit in the new small compute game boxes.
TheOneRing.net put up a fake news story claiming that there’d been a screw-up in the vote counting at the Oscars, and that Lord of the Rings was going to lose its award for cinematography. They put up a fake CNN page and everything. I have to admit I fell for that one – I wouldn’t put it past the Academy. (And, in my defense, they put it up Sunday night, so I didn’t immediately think of the date.)
They took it down after about three hours, though – maybe they got tired of angry letters.
