After years of rumors, shut-downs, and lost hope, they finally announced a live-action film based on The Legend of Zelda. You could almost hear the collective shout of Zelda fans around the world, excited to hear that their favorite universe was finally making it to the big screen.

However, there was another group of Zelda fans that contained their excitement. They remember the crushing sorrow that followed in the wake of IGN’s 2008 April Fool’s prank, and remain traumatized to this day. For those of you who don’t remember (or weren’t even around yet), let me paint you a picture of one of the most painful days to be a gamer in history, and how the awesome yet foul prank came to be.

Everybody has that one video game that defined their childhood.

For Sam Balcombe, that game was The Legend of Zelda.
