Ah, yes, the inevitable weekend attack, and let's pretend we're not still catching up on GameSetLinks after April 1st stupidity and inspiredness, eh? Which reminds me, if anyone has a good April Fools game site round-up, please post in comments.

In the mean time, we tangentially mention some gag favorites, as well as examine Lost's use of its license for a game, Kyle Orland making list articles referencing lists, and all kinds of other fun and games. Here's those breaks:
