Holy Halo, it’s LEGO

by Jenni Lada on Mar 4, 2008 at 04:37 PM

The original EGM scan

Sorry everyone, but LEGO Halo is all a hoax. Every year Electronic Gaming Monthly does an April Fool’s joke, and their joke for this year happened to leak a bit early. Xbox 360 Fanboycame across a scan from the April 2008 issue of EGM, saw the doctored LEGO Halo image, and ran with a story on it. The Xbox 360 Fanboy original article has since been modified to show the truth about LEGO Halo.

A report from Shacknews reported that originally the staff at Xbox 360 Fanboy didn’t check the date on the copy of EGM, and instead of revealing a breaking story they spoiled a joke. Previous pranks from EGM include an alleged Lord of the Rings racing game and the Apple iGame console.

In Xbox 360 Fanboy’s defense, that was a pretty amazing screenshot. Also the story was quite convincing as well. It all would have been enough to fool me, had I stumbled across the image. Xbox 360 Fanboy should at least get points for being on top of things.
