James Bond Star Is Secretly A Huge Gamer

The latest in the long line of James Bond actors, Daniel Craig, is secretly a huge gaming fanatic. He's actually passionate enough about videogames (secretly) that he wouldn't sign on with Treyarch to make the upcoming Quantum of Solace game until he got a chance to evaluate it himself.

He was quite reserved about doing the game at first because he didn't want to be involved in a shoddy product. Treyarch had to show it to him three times before he would sign up, and when they went to visit Daniel Craig on set, they were held up for half an hour because he was playing Guitar Hero.

That's awesome. I would love to see bond get all "hip" with the kids and bust out some Guitar Hero in the next movie.

I don't get it... Is that supposed to be a joke? All the gamers I know wear blue speedos.

I'm guessing by "huge gamer" they mean he has played Goldeneye or Halo. Once.

i have an idea;

why don't one of you start a blog about how you got rid of your 360 and got a ps3...

then, someone else write another blog about how they traded their ps3 and got a 360.

flame war away !

oh, just remembered, i think its been done already.

ok, someone start a rumour gears of war 3 coming to ps3... RFOM 3 coming to 360.

before everyone starts with the disagrees, i am just joking.

Shame if he can admit liking games than Mark Walhberg should come clean about not being a fan of video games even though he's playing a charater from a video game. Lame excuses like he'll get addicted to it does not make sense.

Its nice to that we're reaching the golden peak in time where influential actually PLAY games and even then, care for the quality of their games. Now we only need a gamer President and we're all set.

I think it's cool that he wanted to be happy he was lending himself to what he genuinely believed is a good product. There's too many that just would say "how much am I making from this?" and base their decision off the answer to that question.

Well done Mr. Craig imo and I really can't wait to see the new movie, I saw the trailer last time I went to the cinema and it got me pretty excited.

So cool that he wouldn't sign on for the Bond game until he saw it. I always wonder if stars who lend their voices and likeness get some sort of approval.
