    2009: The first batch of Link clones begin being produced.

    2010: Japanese government announces the world is filled with evil. Japan names gingers as the root of all the evil, naming Scotland and Ireland as the birthplace of the taint.

    Febuary 1st, 2011: After a breakdown in negotiations with Scotland and Ireland, Japan declares war on the evils of the world and puts Operation Zelda into effect.

    June 25th, 2011: The Link clone army attacks Ireland and Scotland, no ginger is left alive. The day is remembered as Dead Red Day.

    July 11th, 2011: The Link Clone army is defeated during the night while camped in farmland. Eyewitnesses report seeing chickens. #thelegendofzelda

    Ganon? Didn't he try to establish the Gerudo Desert in Iraq or was that Saddam?

    The amount of gay-bashing in this article is shocking. Okay, so Leon and Luis? Never took them as gay lovers but this jackass not only detects a faint homosexuality but he then declares it as a four-star level of discomfort. Why? They're just two men who barely interact in a video game. But even if they were gay lovers, I don't see how this is at all "uncomfortable" or "wrong." Kotaku should be ashamed for advertising this sick editorial of hate.

    @Baff: The first Nirvana album was released in 1989. The reason they say you have to be born pre-1985 is because otherwise you weren't old enough to be a fan while he was still alive. He's definitely a 90s thing.
