Ellen Degeneres helped Matthew Perry get some Fallout time

Ellen Degeneres helped Matthew Perry get some Fallout time Recently it was revealed that Matthew Perry landed a gig doing voice-overs in Fallout: New Vegas. It appears that Ellen Degeneres indirectly had a role in getting Matthew Perry on New Vegas.

Back in 2009, Matthew Perry sat down with Ellen Degeneres for her show. Perry started talking about Fallout 3 and how great it was. Perry liked Fallout 3 so much he handed Degeneres a full blown system and game.

Perry stated:

I played this video game so often that I injured my hand so severely that I had to go to a hand doctor and get injections in my hand because I love this video game so much. The game is called Fallout 3. I’m not affiliated with this game at all, I just love it. But I signed it, so it looks like I created it.

According to Joystiq, this little stunt caught the attention of Bethesda  studios. The studio ended up reaching out to Perry to bring him into  Fallout 3 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. Perry is suppose to play a character in Fallout: New Vegas, named Benny.

    LMAO… cool.

  2. FahKinSuPah:

    Thats awsome. Its always great to see when gaming just branches out into other forms of entertainment (wether directly or indirectly like this)

  3. b0xel:

    hey fahkin, I need some help with gears 2 if you have it… my GT is b0xel. add me if you can spare some time.

  4. CAD:

    boxel has a 360? Did I read that correctly?

  5. FahKinSuPah:

    I don’t have Gears 2 right now. I had the original version and after beating it once I soldit off before the GoTY edition came out. I had planned on getting the GoTY edition when it came out but i never did. Bills lmao.

    Gears 2 is great but 1 just felt better for some reason.

  6. b0xel:

    @FahKinSuPah:
    thats cool man, I think I’ll just play the force unleashed instead, I just beat conviction and thought I’d play gears 2 first since I’ve had it for a while.
    @CAD
    don’t be so surprised man, I’m a gamer first. fanboy second.

  7. ncaissie:

    Cad is just a dipshit that thinks we put down the 360 for no reason.
    NEWS FLASH CAD! Everything we say about the pos 360 is TRUE!

  8. ncaissie:

    Roca may have it boxel. Or Harry

  9. CAD:

    Boxel

    I have Gears 2 so if your interested let me know. I’ll send a friend request.

  10. b0xel:

    @ncaissie:
    cool. I’ll ask them both via PSN, the more the merrier and all that. LOL
    so, what have you been up to these days? still playing RDR online?

  11. b0xel:

    @CAD:
    yea, go ahead…. thnx.

  12. FahKinSuPah:

    @ncaissie

    “Everything we say about the pos 360 is TRUE!”

    Oh come on now. Your a PS fagboy. Everyone knows that fanboys aren’t exactly the most honest people when talking about a console/company other than the one to which they are a fanboy

  13. ncaissie:

    No I have been busy with the kids. I do every summer.
    Went camping for 8 days. last week and and extra Sunday.

  14. ncaissie:

    What have I said that is not true?

  15. ncaissie:

    I’m playing rdr tonight if anyone wants to play.

  16. harry sachz:

    Boxel,

    I still have a copy of Gears 2.

    Horde mode with CAD and Toshi?

  17. b0xel:

    @harry
    great, just add b0xel (note the zero for O), and lets go…

  18. harry sachz:

    boxel, just added you. I am still at work at the moment, but will ping you when i am on the xbox.

    Where are you anyway?

  19. CAD:

    Horde mode with CAD and Toshi?

    I’m so down. All we need is to all actually be online LOL. Australia, India, Canada and Boxel where ever you are make it a hard task.

  20. ToshithegreaT:

    “Horde mode with CAD and Toshi?”

    Well there is a slight problem here..

    My 360 stopped reading discs this saturday, i bought my 360 nearly 3 years back (they even replaced my 360 once in between), so i was nervous to call MS up, to my surprise the guy on phone told me that warranty related to these issues is only 1 year, but on MS’s behalf, he ll issue me a FREE replacement for my elite.. So i m supposed to get a call from MS tomorrow, when they will give me the date for the shippment.. I ll be joining u guys the moment i get my new 360 :)

  21. CAD:

    Wow another out of Warrenty story with a happy ending. PSBots don’t even try responding your just going to look stupid.

  22. b0xel:

    “I’m so down. All we need is to all actually be online LOL. Australia, India, Canada and Boxel where ever you are make it a hard task.”
    London baby, LOL….. anyway, now do you see the importance of dedicated servers?

  23. ToshithegreaT:

    “Wow another out of Warrenty story with a happy ending. PSBots don’t even try responding your just going to look stupid.”

    lol, no worries here CAD, i have the e-mail from MS to prove that anyway

  24. phranctoast:

    ” PSBots don’t even try responding your just going to look stupid.””
