    Google Maps - 8 Bit edition.

    http://www.pcworld.com/article/25297...ril_fools.html

    Here's an article on it.

    http://maps.google.com/?t=8&utm_campaign=8bit

    And here's a link to try it out.

    I loved playing the Dragon Warrior/Quest games, and this is a lot of fun to play with.

    Fun! Though street view looks terrible...don't go there. But otherwise...fun!

          And I still found my house with it.

          I have to debate whether that makes it really neat or just me really sad.

              I don't think that's their AF joke... or if it is, then they've got two: Google Racing is also debuting today...

                They also had Gmail Tap, and the YouTube DVD Collection.

                  *nods* I'm not used to so many jokes from them, and they're all good!

                  Maybe, like the Moon Cheese one, they'll leave this up for a while.
