    Default OC Remix had a laugh

    OC Remix (The site that has remixes of classic game music) had a wonderful practical joke for their members yesterday. One that caused them to get a "Cease and Desist" letter from EA. So the joke didn't last very long, but luckily, someone caught screen shots of it. The article even made it's way to Slashdot (Although not being true).

    First see the regular site....

    http://www.ocremix.org/

    and now the folder of documented pranksters (before it got pulled down)

    66.221.70.133/sadorf// <-- Copy Paste into your Address bar. DP Forums wont link to it.

    The Idea is that Overclocked merged with EA. You should have seen the forums asplode! Members were arguing about the Benefits/Downfalls of such an idea. Gotta love the masses on April First. Apparently EA didnt think their stockholders would laugh.

    Here was my favorite image from the folder (for those that probably wont click the links anyway)

    My cousin showed me yesterday.
    Less than 20 minutes latrer they had thatletter but neither of bit knew weather or not to bellieve it.

    It was pretty damn funny and we got some shots of it.
    I copied the Duck Hunt 2K5 and he got the homepage which was hilarious. I loved the new logo they made.

    But MAN! That was QUICK response from the law firm that repersents EA! How long did that take, six hours?

    Aperently they forgot to look at their calendar.
