Hey everyone,

I’m not a huge fan of April Fools, since its hard to do a good April Fools joke and easy to do a bad, unfunny one. I leave April Fools to the kind of people who have weeks to think of a joke and really nail the delivery. That is not something we have time for here at LRR HQ. So no jokes, just videos!

First up is MEN Easter — the manliest network in the world is doing some counter-programming for the holiday. Hope you like explosions!

Unskippable this week is Yakuza: Dead Souls, which takes the ultra-realistic Yakuza games and mixes them with zombies! Yes. Really. Seems appropriate for April Fools, considering I thought this title was actually a joke when I heard about it.

Guys, this game seems… dumb.
Chill Kenji, we’ll just add the title Dead Souls. People loved Dark Souls.
Isn’t that misleading?
I sure hope so!

Finally CheckPoint has some strong words for Square Enix and lots of excitement for a game designed to pander to our age demographic!

My childhood has a really weird boner right now.
