I think it's a mix of a gag, and a very desperate attempt at marketing. It still seems a bit confusing. |

Ahem.
GenPets FAQ wrote: |
Are Genpets Real?
Genpets are living, breathing mammals. Bio-Genica is a Bioengineering Company that has combined, and modified existing DNA to create the Genpets lineup. Genpets are flesh and blood just like any other animal.

On the other hands, there's the part about this thing being nothing more than a grotesque joke...but the webdesign's *really* well done. I'm impressed - I wonder if this was done for a digital media portfolio or something. |

If so they get major props for making the greatest trick website I have ever seen. Unless Canada has been secretly doing DNA research for this. |

I actually don't think it's a gag. They have a press page with stations and magazines that I've actually heard of before. The GenPets themselves also have slightly different physical features, different hand positions, etc. This is either amazing, or crazy.
I might actually consider getting a purple one if they -are- real and start to sell them. It'd take me a while to get used to it though. |

Here this settles the issue. It was meant to prove that people aren't ready for this sort of thing. Considering the vast responces i've seen, he's most likely right  |

*Sigh of relief*
I thought I'd tripped into the world of Asimov for a second there. Now I understand why they didn't have links to the articles. |
