    As long as he's not playing this, winning and getting ideas then I'm down with it:

    Candidly I never could get into the war-shooters that involved real nationalities like this or Medal of Honor.  Having married a German and knowing some Russians who have had to endure some hardships really changes your perspective on pulling the trigger on someone just because a line was drawn on a map.

    You know Curt Schilling has founded a development company that will be making MMOs? '38 Studios'

    The company's first game is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game entitled Copernicus. Todd McFarlane is the art director and author R.A. Salvatore is the creative director. It is said to be released around 2010

    Bill Clinton plays WoW. He also clarified "I did not have sexual relations with that Night Elf druid."

    Wait, are we talking about celebrities here?

    Nevermind then.

    two i know of,  Dave Chapelle plays/played WoW, so did/does Robbie Williams.

     

    oh nvm, both mentioned bah  =P

     

    I wouldn't be surprised many celebs playing mmos, WoW is most likely the favourite choice, well it got the numbers and it's quick playtime, not to mention it's easy to slack away many hours just by doing stupid things.

    I would paid BIG money to have both of these in my raid group. 

    Biehn (on teamspeak during the final boss fight): " I like to keep this handy... for close encounters." *pulls out a legendary weapon* "Eat this!"

    Walken (raid warning):  "What this raid needs is more cowbell!"

    Wrong actor dude.

    He didn't say "game over man" quote, that was Hudson, who was played by BILL PAXTON.

    I caught it on the edit, you're faster than my proof-reading and hitting 'edit' :-p.  Anywho, it's been ten years since I saw the flick so my apologies to both Hicks and Hudson for mixing up the characters.  I got the picture right though ;-)

    Some of you crack me up. 

    Yeah, I can totally see Diesel playing wow.  <Logs on>  Hits a chicken.  Yawns.  <cant find the logoff button>. 

    In reality hes way too busy shielding himself from vicious flying beaver attacks, daily. 

     

     

    DIesel was on Letterman a few years back..admitting he was a huge DnD geek...even has his favorite characters name tattooed somewhere on his body....so him playing WOW is probably...but uncertainly true.

    I know that when my buddy won the original music contest for WoW (name of the song was "Dwarf Hunter Named Wedge) he got to meet the lead singer from Korn and got a signed guitar from him.  Apparently that band all played while on tour.
