10 Video Game Pranks You Wish Were True
10. The Garrus Pillow
Mass Effect 2 is one of gaming's most beloved treasures and one of Bioware's crowning achievements. Players spent countless hours bonding with their crew mates on the Normandy ship, forming relationships that stand the test of time.
As such, it makes sense the developer would want to create merchandise to celebrate one of the title's best characters Garrus Vakarian, a Turian Agent formerly part of C-Sec's investigation division. Those that opted to flirt and form a romantic relationship with the character have long wanted to cuddle with him in real life, but those wishes were neglected for years.
The Garrus pillow soon became a popular April Fool's joke that did the rounds every year and each time, fans were left with a bitter taste in their mouth. That is, until through popular demand it finally came true and Bioware announced it would be releasing not just a pillow, but a full body one with the image of Garrus illustrated all over it.
Though, given how difficult it is to find one online, it does remain to be seen if it ever actually made it to market.
