While I was ready to brush off the April Fool's, upon further reflection maybe that's not so far fetched. Not that I expect them to actually go and announce a potential April Fool's joke over a week past the actual day, but the countdown itself could easily be so; who would suspect a fake countdown when a fake announcement is the norm?

[Leo]

Potentially, some bored person could register a japanese domain, and put up a fake countdown page, but that person would /really/ have to be in the April Fools spirit to want to do that. I'm undecided if it's real or not. If it is, I hope it's Valkyrie Profile 3.

It could well be an April Fools joke. After all, they said it would be for the PS3 as well.

True. Who would want to do that?

[eXaX]

Obviously a April's Fools joke that's going to last for 212 /edit hours...

[AJR]

Hours.

Am I the only one that could care less these days about tri-Ace?

SO4's battle system is awesome, the rest of the game..well, I can't say the same.

[Hidoshi]

Off-topic, but a  big JBM: It's "Couldn't care less", not "could care less". Could care less implies that you could, in fact, care less, and therefore do care a sufficient amount. The same is not true when you use "couldn't".

Fuck.

Thanks for being a dick. =p

No one around here talks grammatically correct.

Fuck you.

Pay careful attention to the subject/verb agreement found within that sentence.

Fuck you.

Pay careful attention to the subject/verb agreement found within that sentence.

It lacks a subject, as in the person that is supposed to be performing the fucking.  "You", as the direct object, is implied as the person receiving the fucking.

"I fuck you" is much clearer both grammatically and conceptually.

No no no no no.

The subject is "you understood." It's an imperative. Literally, the sentence reads

"(you) fuck you."

Also known as, "go fuck yourself."

:P

Please read the following excerpt:

Would anyone care to tell me the underlying theme the author is trying to illustrate?

[Prime Mover]

Actually, I'm pretty sure the proper implication of "Fuck You" is, "You get fucked by something/someone". The subject is ambigous, and therefor, likely neither party involved. The pronouns for an ambigious third party in English are "it" (inanimate) and "one", the plural being "they". The French equivalents being "on" and "ils/elles" respectively. So probably the closest completion of the phrase "fuck you" is:

"One fucks you"

The term "go fuck yourself", while having a similar connotation, is not identical since "Go Fuck Yourself" requires the addressed party to innitiate the action of "fucking themselves". "Go Fuck Yourself", being a directive, may denote a measure of power by the author, however since it requires the subject to comply with the command, it may result in the unfullfillment of the authors wishes, therefor usurping some of his or her implied power.
