Over at the reddit gaming page some guy found Jeff's fake E3 game list weeks after the original posting and without doing any research, and apparently lacking any critical thinking skills (or a sense of humor), posts it claiming it to be the real deal. Many users, also lacking critical thinking skills, believe it immediately and go wild with speculation.
This is one of the silliest things I've seen in a while. It would have taken less than 2 minutes to verify that this was a joke. A couple hours after the posting someone finally does the barest amount of research and discovers its a joke, but not before people get hyped.
Props go to Jeff I guess, for creating such a crazy ass list and still having people believe it to be true.
Guy finds Jeff's fake E3 list, believes its real; hilarity ensues

" I can't wait for flower revenge and Fatter Princess. :P "Fatter Princess will be GOTY!
I sent this to http://gamejournos.tumblr.com/.
Don't worry, I paid full credit to you, Flux.
Oh man, thats too funny.
HILARIOUS EDIT: So I thought I would check how many sites reported on Jeff's list, it turns out quite a few.
So far the most hilarious thing I have seen is David Jaffe almost getting trolled by Jeff's list. You can read his blog on his website: http://davidjaffe.biz/

Anyone else find David Jaffe's internet grammar absolutely appalling?
" Bowser vs. Donkey Kong is fake? Say it ain't so! Heh. "Ha, I wonder what kind of game that would be anyway.

I pictured that old Gorrilas game where they throw exploding bananas at each other. That would be great.
" Oh man, thats too funny.Awesome! I really have a distaste for Jaffe. The recent issue of EGM is nothing but him masturbating to himself. Fuck that guy.

I've never seen this before. Hilarious list. Damn, I can't wait for Grease The Video Game brought to me by the people behind ARMA, and ooh Elevator Combat!
My favorite is the inclusion of Big Ben Interactive, a former-Dreamcast game company that makes Wii & Iphone shovel-ware now. If you include just enough reality mixed in with some fanboy wet-dreams, people will believe anything.
The Internet will take anything and sell it as fact. I think it´s about time somebody faked some new hitler-diaries.
" @FluxCapacitor: The links you've posted from the first two search result pages aren't referring to Jeff's fake, they're referring to the original fake that inspired Jeff's fake. The way you've posted it makes it look like you believe they're referring to Jeff's. "this
man, some people's reactions on that link are fucken hilarious.
I quite like the idea of 1v100 Redux myself
