10 Celebrities You Didn't Realise Are Massive Gamers

Though you might have totally missed this happening, Will Arnett, an actor you've probably seen in the likes of Arrested Development or know as the voice of Bojack in Bojack Horseman, has actually appeared in a bunch of video games across the years, showing up in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (a series he apparently loved at the time) and as the lead in Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard.

His enthusiasm extends beyond simply appearing in games though, as Arnett's love of the medium actually led to him hosting an Xbox Live show, titled Game Chat. Here, Arnett and some of his celebrity buddies would essentially just mimic what us mere mortals do, by sitting around, playing games and chatting s**t.

It was a cool concept, even if the execution was a little wonky, but the show was cancelled almost straight away. It's a shame, as it was clearly more than a bunch of celebs pretending to enjoy games for the sake of a show, but rather a collection of fans who actually knew what they were talking about.
