"Hey Robin - do you still play online games?"
"Oh way too much!" he said.
"What are you playing these days?" I asked
"Battlefield 2 - the 2 stands for 2 in the morning."
"Oh really? What class do you like?"
"Hmm?"
"What class do you like to play as?"
"Oh - the sniper. I'm always the sniper!" he said enthusiastically.
"Well I'll watch out for you"
"Well you can try - but by the time you see me you'll be dead!!"

Dissect and discuss.

Does make you wonder how many other famous people have killed you online

I know there's a certain female porn star who used to mod for Unreal Tournament

Rumor has it Samuel L. Jackson plays EVE Online. Not sure if I believe that though.

Apparently he said it on some Icelandic talk show.

[Galemp]

American McGee plays City of Heroes.

That's all I know.

[Fragrag]

I can imagine being just TKed and hearing "Nanu-nanu" over the VoIP

[achtung]

Dave Chappelle plays WoW

[Flipside]

Pirate - 'Ha! Kiss goodbye to your Armageddon...'
- Armageddon engages smartbomb
Samuel L - 'I'm a mushroom cloud laying Mu'fukka, Mu'fukka!'

Perhaps Samuel-L is getting in character for his next movie, Snakes In A Spaceship.

[Flipside]

He already did 3 films on that theme Or maybe it was just the acting....

[Ford Prefect]

Good man, Robin Williams. I'm always the sniper too.

See, now this I don't believe. Having played EVE (though briefly) it doesn't strike me as the sort of game a "casual gamer" would play. I would imagine some console sports game or at best Halo would be as deep as it gets.

But then again, who knows. Maybe he's really just an honest-to-God geek.

So, the next person who calls me a "ghey aimbot f4g!!!!1!!1111" in Counter-Strike:Source could actually be an Oscar-winning actor? Sweeeeet.

I kinda find it hard to believe these people actually play games.  What actor or comedian honestly has the time to sit down and do something like this?  Hey, if they do, that's totally awesome and I'm all for it!  But I just find it hard to believe I'd bump into someone playing the game who's THAT famous while playing online, unless they were getting paid to play it.

hey, actors need to unwind too.. if that means virtually blasting people the smithereens, so be it.

How great it would be to recruit a random good player to one's clan and then realize afterwards that he was Williams, or some other celebrity.

"Hi we have a clan match on this friday, can you make it? Bob, Bob, Bob and Joe can't come since they have extra projects for school. And we are short on one player."
"Oh I can't since I'm going to New Zealand to film a few scenes."
"... Crap..."

They're ****ing minted!  They can afford to take the time more than anyone else here.  Hell, the interest earned on their fat piles of cash whilst playing games is probably more than anyone here will ever earn in a year working.
