PlayStation Around the Web: What We Read

Happy Sunday, folks. Hope you enjoyed this year’s April Fools Day’s pranks this year, which seemed more lighthearted and less mean-spirited than in the past. We even got in on the act for a change.

Personally, I really enjoyed Destructoid’s entry; their Faxtoid takeover was both funny and incredibly creative. Did you see anything that topped their effort?

Programming note: we’ve been experimenting with livestreaming video directly into PlayStation Home. Soon we’re going to need your help stress testing the stream, so keep an eye out here and on Twitter for how you can participate.
