Lots of stuff going on in Star Citizen as well:
This is also a great day for Star Wars fans: CERN researchers have found evidence that the Force exists: http://home.web.cern.ch/about/updates/2015/04/cern-researchers-confirm-existence-force
CERN physicist Valerio Rossetti harnesses the Force for more mundane tasks, such as reheating coffee (Image: Max Brice and Daniel Dominguez/CERN)
SWTOR announced that they are adding more mount types to the game: http://www.swtor.com/blog/go-big-go-small-go-nowhere
New stationary mounts will move at 0% speed, allowing you to go nowhere.

You know when you play too much MMO's when your partners pants have become a rare drop.
The guildwars 2 one wasn't funny at all. That wasn't a joke. A joke is suppose to be funny. In GW2 you couldn't switch it off...yeah the collors you could switch off but your character kept running like it was a airplane and making stupid airplane sounds that got old after 5 seconds. Thats not how you do jokes. Couldn't play today, got to anoyed with the stupid sounds and the stupid walk.
They used to have better jokes in the past. But its so overdone these days. Everyone tries to make it better then the year before and no one is falling for it anymore. Gets way to old this april fools crap that isn't funny.
i think the Gw2 one could have been better if you could hover around. Like run for a bit and slowly take off lol.
The TSW video made me want to play TSW. I liked the zombie at the end lol.
Ironically yesterday was the day I decided to boot GW2 since I left. At first I thought it was bug then found out it was an April Fools joke. I agree it was annoying and didnt give me the option to turn off. I logged out immediately. Bad call on ANet part.
