Bill Goldberg talks Xbox 360, videogames
Since it’s a pretty slow news day, we turn to the latest edition of The Hollywood Byte for a bit of light reading. The famous name in focus for this edition is former pro wrestler and current host of the SpikeTV show Bullrun, Wrestling Entertainment wrestler”>Bill Goldberg, who not only has pretty eclectic tastes in videogames (he doesn’t play any wrestling games, by the way) but is also armed with a kick-ass TV.
“I have an Xbox 360 and I have a big high definition 52-inch flat screen,” said Goldberg. “I get away when I can and play Fight Night Round 3, FEAR and some of the racing games, the NASCAR games. It’s awesome. One of the coolest things I heard is that NASCAR drivers play the game and get better prepared for a track they’ve never been on before by playing the videogame. These guys have every edge they can ask for with NASCAR.”
Goldberg also believes that videogames serve as not only an escape from reality, but are also good ways to get rid of some pent-up stress. “It’s wild, man,” said Goldberg. “You never thought videogames would command so much time from all of the above generations. It’s a mindless way of entertaining yourself and not hurting yourself or anybody in the meantime.
“It’s good to be able to go into a videogame and shoot people and not have to suffer the consequences of reality. It’s definitely borderline true-life realism on these videogames nowadays.”
