Ladies and gentlemen, know this. When you whip out your ph4t Adobe Photoshop skillz all up on the internet, you do not whip it out alone. You are whippin' it out with the world, exposing a global community of gamers to your skillz. You are whippin' it out all over naive webmasters and in turn, whippin' it out all over naive gamers that depend on them. In short, you be whippin' it out with Hitler.

Ha ha.. ^_^; I can never figure out if those are annoying or funny. I think it's funny that people run around and try to convince other people of games that don't exsist. I guess some people have odd humor.

As much as I would like to let the joke speak for itself, I think I should step in here and note that these screenshots were a JOKE, not a HOAX. There was no malicious intent in the screenshots that caused this fake news. If you look at the page they were on (which I sadly cannot find right now), they were clearly in a gallery of JOKE screenshots and were not presented at any time as being real.

The fault for this hoax lies entirely with the English language news sites that saw them and decided not to do two minutes of double-checking to see if they were real or not. Thankfully, the Professor is not this dumb and presented it to us for review.
