celebrities who play videogames

[FordSVT]

So many people play games nowadays, and the first generation of kids/teens that grew up with Atari/Coleco/Sega/Nintendo is currently in their 30s and even 40s. I'd be surprised if the percentage of "celebrities" who play games is any different from the general population. Twenty years from now, we'll be voting these people in as Presidents and Prime Ministers. The days of games being niche or for "young people" are basically over and done with. It's only a few really old people who haven't got the message yet.

Didn't the guy who's on one of the Law and Order shows call people who didn't go prestige in CoD4 pussies or something?

In the UK, Chris Moyles and Vernon Kay are well known CoD4 fans.

Supposedly William Shatner plays WoW, or did at one point.

I remember reading that Justin Timberlake is a huge Halo fan. He hosted Halo parties with his friends or something.

Daniel Craig's a big third-person adventure fan.

Seriously.

Vin Diesel I've heard is a huge HUGE geek. I mean, as in, he was a hardcore D&D tabletop geek.

He supposedly is a WoW addict and has a WoW computer set up IN HIS LIMO that takes him everywhere. Like a state of the art rig, keyboard, etc etc.

A lot of athletes like the different type of games like Madden and NHL...

I know a few athletes that play sports.

Hmm, Seth Green maybe?

Curt Schilling plays a lot of WoW, I don't know if he was mentioned yet.

It's hard not to like a guy who sits on a fitball when he games.
