Gotcha!

They say that if you want to trick someone with false information, you must tell a story that is at least partially true. The only parts of my most recent post that are not real are that I am quitting games journalism/closing this blog (no way!) and that I am going to rehab (I said, no, no, no).

I'm a little bit surprised at how many mails and tweets I got from people who thoroughly believed it. A game journalist on Celebrity Rehab? Really?

Anyway, Happy April Fool's Day to the very best blog-readers in the entire internet universe.

I thought the change to a pensive look in the photo was a great touch!

I still didn't believe it for a second, but that's because I've learned to despise and distrust everything I hear on this accursed holiday.

So are you still closing SVGL? That's bad, bad, news.

Leigh, that was *most* unkind.

I'll be honest. You had me going until the celebrity rehab part. I even refrained from commenting on the off chance it was actually true.

You had me going, completely!

That'll teach me to be a few days behind in my RSS feed; I'd completely put April Fools behind me.

Thanks for your dedications and efforts on game journalism. I found most of your game blog posts are quite informative. False information may be a trick for certain period of time but the truth is always truth. But as a game journalist I would be always eager to known from you, which are the reliable video game mail rental serving websites? I hope you would describe them in your next blog post.
