Misprint or otherwise, the irony is still amazing. Hey, at least they give back. ;)

I’ve been laughing about it amongst my friends for the past two weeks because the commercials are advertising it like the world’s never seen anything like it before, when it’s been on PS2 for quite some time.

The first shipment of GH-II for 360 was plagued with defective controllers. The blue and green buttons were reversed (though there is a software update available if you have Xbox Live that reverses them as buttons as well as in the game itself) and on many controllers, more than half of the screws were missing. These defective controllers were primarily sold at Target (at least in the local scope). Too funny.

That Relay For Life sign is priceless. You almost have to wonder if that could have even been approved as a real sponsor. it looked like it was obviously a joke someone did, and was either removed by them or someone who was offended.
