Gaming connoisseur and poisonous celebrity Kim Kardashian is super psyched for the next Call of Duty, she said on Twitter today. Because the graphics look crazy.

“But wait,” you might be thinking. “Doesn’t Kim Kardashian sell her tweets?

Nope, Kardashian says. It wasn’t a paid tweet. She and her brother play Call of Duty “all the time.”

(Of course, we followed up with Activision to verify that and they confirmed that it wasn’t done through them.)

Clearly, the Woodward and Bernstein of Generation Y.

At the same time? Not that CoD requires that much skill to play *Guffaw Guffaw nerd laugh Guffaw*

The Simpson's? Maybe she did tweet that herself.

You couldn't throw anything else in that title to elicit more of a "meh" response from me

It was a typo, it's not the Black Ops that gets Kim excited.

I saw that video. She wasn't excited over that one either.

Interesting she mentioned Playstation. Sony finally spending some dollars on advertising, or has some guy got her hooked on Playstation specifically?

Has Kanye West got Kim K hooked on video games?
Was her tweet sincere or just an attempt to impress him?
Have you ever turned a girl in to a gurl gamerrr?
How long will Kanye and Kim last?
Does Blops 2 have "crazy" graphics, or should Kim K play more PC games?
Is Kanye West the luckiest man alive?

You're really trying to make this hipster runoff thing happen on neogaf, huh?

 

[Gbraga]

Peopla actually care about this kind of thing?

"Kanye West is getting Kim Kardashian hooked on video games!!"

If I cared any less a black hole would appear by my side and absorb the entire human race into my ass.

+1 for "you're a bunch of jaded, cynical gamers." The echo chamber in GAF can be very loud.

If anything it just shows you cynicism is healthy.

If you don't get started soon Kim might beat you to it.

Seriously let this awful thread die , please. And Harrison Ford GIF dude they gonna ban you. Editttt

Cynicism is definitely healthy when it's a sign of critical thinking. Cynicism by default comes off as hollow and lazy.

OP reads like a poor man's hipster run-off post.

which makes me think someone should do an HRO-style gaming blog.

omg bb, are u #teamcodblops?

 

[Vilam]

Thanks for not disappointing me when I knew that people would immediately assume that she got paid for that tweet.

Are there really people out there that are this ignorant? I know that she's been paid for video game related tweets before. You really think someone as "eloquent" as Kim is going to sit there and spell out the full "Call of Duty Black Ops II" name? There aren't enough eye rolling smilies on the internet...

 

[Angry Fork]

Super graphicals. Looks like real life isn't it amazing how far these new fangled video games have come!?

You are doing it wrong....Page 3 for me, still too much though.

 

[RobotHaus]

This should have been first reply in so many celebrity threads.

 

[MuddyDonut]

You will never play video games with Kanye West.

 

[AEGISX]

this is hilariously boring

I don't have anything against Kim Kardashian, or the fact that she posted this on her Twitter. I sort of understand how and why it made it to the news, but that doesn't mean I think it deserves it, or is anything that rational people should consider to be even remotely close to anything that is actually news worthy - if it is, I do not understand why, cause her opinion on gaming doesn't seem to matter very much, even according to the original 'news article', cause she isn't big on gaming.

If it is an ad, it's probably detrimental to the state of gaming or the Call of Duty brand, cause it indicates the publishers/developers desire to appeal to as many people as possible (Trying to get the people who listen to Kim Kardashians opinion to play an FPS shooter?), and therefore it is likely that they are trying to generalize the game as much as possible in the various aspects that allow it.

Kanye use to want to make and play with video game music when he was young I think.

This, he wanted to do games before his love of music.
