I'm unsure how popular GameNOW magazine was, but over the course of two years, they pulled off one of the weirdest running gags I've seen in a game magazine, just to have fun at the expense of an irate reader who didn't like Final Fantasy VIII. A little background: even though there were only 27

    I absolutely love little “time bomb” jokes that are only placed for the amusement of the perpetrator(s), but are then found randomly. This is the best type of humor.

    While I don’t really care for FFVIII, that ending is amazing.

    Truly a great article.
