We nearly missed this one, but thankfully one of our readers didn't, and sent us this screenshot of a chest in <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/EverQuest-II/">EverQuest II</a></em>. Looks just a little bit different doesn't it? Another nod to the gaming world's beloved <em>Portal</em>, it seems that players were treated to Weighted Companion Chests in <em>EQII</em> for April Fools' Day. Hopefully you looted that quest starter before tossing the chest in the Emergency Intelligence Incinerator, Rollins!<br /><br />[Thanks, Rollins]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/04/02/a-late-april-fools-entry-eqiis-weighted-companion-chest/">A late April Fools' entry: EQII's Weighted Companion Chest</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 02 Apr 2008 09:30:00 EST.

Aikiwoce sent us this pic over on <a href="http://www.wowinsider.com/tips/">the WoW Insider tipline</a> (<a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/contact/tips">here's ours</a>, if you have a tip for us), but it was just too good not to share with you Massively-ers, too (Massives? Massivliers?). <a href="http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/events/loveisintheair/">Love is in the Air</a> has started up for Valentine's Day in the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/world-of-warcraft"><em>World of Warcraft</em></a>, and there is a familiar-looking heart-adorned cube sitting outside of the major cities. Yes, anyone who's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_(video_game)">played <em>Portal</em></a> (not an MMO, but my choice for GotY last year-- it was a triumph, and a huge success) will immediately recognize this as a tribute from Blizzard to another terrific PC game.<br /><br />No wonder <em>Wrath of the Lich King</em> is taking longer than expected-- all the developers at Blizzard must have been spending all their time <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjGfgV7rJHI">looking for cake</a>.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/02/11/weighted-companion-cube-is-still-alive-in-wow/">Weighted Companion Cube is "still alive" in WoW</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 11 Feb 2008 16:30:00 EST.
