Zero Punctuation had this to say about Duke Nukem Forever:

Wow, are those guys even talking about the same game??
Ah, but if you watch the ZP video *very* slowly (and by "very slowly" I
mean "hit the pause button at just the right nanosecond"), you discover
that at the time of the review, the game hadn't been released yet, and
it was all a big joke.
And I fell for it. As usual. To quote ZP, "apparently I'm a retard".

I find his reviews are usually very accurate. But really, most of the
stuff he reviews I've never heard of and will never actually play. It's
just amusing to hear paragraphs such as
"Portal 2 opens with a long physics-based ride in a container which
is slowly destroyed to reveal epic views of the grand vistas outside and
you can already feel the same sinking feeling you get as something warm
and moist splashes across your face and you already know that by this
time tomorrow you're going to be known as 'the school slut'."
Or perhaps
"In all Crysis 2 is a good game but at no point is anything as great
as that moment in Crysis 1 where you break into the alien mothership
rummage through their underwear drawer and embarrass them in front of
their parents... I /may/ be remembering this wrong..."
The guy has a way with words. LOL.

Or you could have watched it when it came out and noticed the review was
released April 1.

Even watching it now, it's quite obviously either sarcasm or a parody.
(An April's Fools prank isn't far from that.)

Given the usual tone of these videos, it's actually pretty typical.

Oh, I'm watching it quite a bit after it came out. I suppose it might
say somewhere in the small print when it was released, but if so, I
hadn't noticed it.
One of the older April fools videos was nothing but a recording of a
clock ticking and him reading some bad poetry...
