Rose Byrne "hooked" on Call Of Duty: Black Ops

Rose Byrne has been left trigger happy by her time with the X-Men.

The sexy screen siren says she spent much of her time hanging around on the set of X-Men: First Class shooting baddies on a video game.

“There were a couple of kids on the set playing this game, Call of Duty: Black Ops,” she said. “There was a lot of hanging around waiting so I had a go and the next thing you know I’m hooked! It has incredible graphics and it’s very violent. We just played that waiting for what seems like forever on set in Georgia. I’m so excited to play that because I never play video games.”

It's all going according to plan, hehehe.

Been hearing lately of celebrities and such getting addicted to video games.

[deadpoole]

Believe me she is hot ... and one of my fav ... but when it comes gaming ... I bet her hand to eye coordination sucks like Xmen First Class sales.

[I_find_it_funny]

I feel ashamed this is news

[mafiahajeri]

It was a great movie it was definetly better then last stand.

[Dee_91]

interesting
i never knew she would be into games ...
kinda .. didnt care but interesting nevertheless

edit
oh wait .. shes not into games .. so
this is ..very pointless

[deadpoole]

I agree ... movie was gr8 but Prof X got paralyzed in this one ... then how the Fk he was steppin down chopper in Xmen: Origins (Wolverine) in the end ... I just dont get it.

[MaxXAttaxX]

Not impressed.

[StanLee]

@ mafiahajeri

It may have been better than Last Stand but it was still utter rubbish. God, it was horrible. Wish I could get the time I spent watching it back.

[Rainstorm81]

@deadpoole

Xmen First Class isnt diectly tied into Xmen origins... there is no continuity between those two movies.I actually heard the second wolverine movie wont be tied to it either.

First Class sales werent the greatest, but it wasnt as bad as the 300mil flop that was Green lantern....besides Xmen FC was the best Xmen movie IMO and the series would be better served if they stick with this cast and story arch and director for future xmen movies.

Magneto was a beast!!!

"LIEK ZOMG A GIRL PLAYS VIDEO GAMES! IM SO AROUSED RIGHT NOW!"

Seriously guys this isnt 2001 anymore. Doesnt this get kind of old after a while?

[SilentNegotiator]

And just as bad is the fact that people can't see straight through these brand-name (Call of Duty™) marketing ploys.

Like the celebrities getting "addicted" to Facebook games and having to close their account so that they remember to breathe and drink water....PFFT.

[saladthieves]

Bang! Another hot pretty celebrity falls to the video game addiction. This is too good.

[ShadowJetX]

It's all good, video games have never killed anyone (seriously, they HAVE NOT), unless she has epilepsy she'll be fine. I mean, it's not like shes addicted to drugs or anything that could cause her to OD.

[Cablephish]

@ShadowJetX

As opposed to Amy Winehouse being addicted to drugs and dying recently?

[JellyJelly]

"Rose Byrnes agent told the media she's into videogames". Fixed.

[-Alpha]

"It has incredible graphics and it’s very violent...I never play video games"

She's a celebrity, so her opinion on anything is clearly authoritative

[Inside_out]

.
Just another reason why COD is a great game.

" She's a celebrity, so her opinion on anything is clearly authoritative "...O_o

I'll take her opinion over anybody here. Of course she is in good company, it's the highest selling game this gen for a reason.

Beauty and brains, what a refreshing perspective...unlike ugly and dumb, a staple around here. :o

[MysticStrummer]

She never plays games, yet she's into Call of Duty, at least while she's bored on a movie set anyway. CoD's status as a casual shooter has been confirmed once more, and no one should argue that fact ever again. That's why it's such a big seller, by the way. I'm not exactly amazed that you would agree with a hot female non-gamer celebrity's opinion about a game you clearly worship already.

[Ravenor]

I like how you feel someone being attractive somehow validates their opinion and reassures your own. You comment on people's intelligence and then say something as dumb as this, which I find ironic considering how you feel stupidity is a "staple" of this place.

Btw, I've been gaming for 20 years now. You would really trust her opinion on games over mine? Or the multitude of others here who have similar experience as me? You're in a sad, sad sad place.

[NanoSoldier]

Black Ops looks great. Maybe your playing on a SD-TV.

[tigertron]

She needs to play some other games.

[OhMyGandhi]

who cares?

[ShadowJetX]

THIS CHICK IS HOT, YOU SHOULD CARE. THE FACT THAT SHES MADE A COMMENT ABOUT "BEING HOOKED" ON A VIDEO GAME MAKES HER 100'000 TIMES HOTTER FOR NO GOOD REASON.

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Good for u girl, too bad its blackops you're hooked on....

[bwazy]

So... is she the one with the huge boobs? If not move along.

[arjman]

Ass>Tits any day

[Hufandpuf]

this spells disaster for her boyfriend.

[kesvalk]

everyday someone get's "hooked" on COD is a sad day for me...

why not get hooked on a good game?

[ape007]

well i guess you'll become the saddest man on the planet

[MidnytRain]

He'll kill himself pretty soon.

[Bzone24]

Yeah, it sucks when somebody has their own opinion and likes something that you don't.

[Hicken]

No, it sucks when somebody has their opinion fed to them and they then go on to "spread the word" as if it's their own.

Pay attention.

[liore]

Who cares

[Bzone24]

You must care a little bit or else you wouldn't have clicked the link to get here and then comment.

[maxmill]

lol

[Bolts]

She's hot. Too bad she isn't in more movies.

[biRdy]

Wow, Why don't they make an article about me liking video games?

[artdafoo]

Lol, this says it all.
http://www.imagebam.com/ima...

[ZETTA]

she probably plays black ops in the kitchen while cooking......

[MasterD919]

Daniel Craig playing Red Dead...This chick playing Black Ops....so does that mean Morgan Freeman loves ripping people apart in Gears?

[Rainstorm81]

Morgan freeman probably plays Mass Effect after hosting Through the Wormhole

[llMurcielagoll]

"It has incredible graphics and it’s very violent...I never play video games"

If she thinks CoD has incredible graphichs, I would love to see the look on her face if, hypothetically, them kids switched to Crysis ultra high graphics settings or saw a battlefield 3 trailer.

[Mutant-Spud]

Who is Rose Byrne?
I spend so much time playing video games I haven't watched a movie in years :)

[johnsonbat]

She's quite a minx and I bet she's hopeless at COD.

[belal]

lol when she starts playing other games she will say: '' wtf cod graphics sucks!''.

[naruto222]

she needs to play naruto!

[bloodybutcher]

"It has incredible graphics´´.that just shows what she knows about games:)not to mention her not-playing...but iam sure that all those 12 year old boys who have ´´hots´´ for her will think she is a gaming guru.stick to acting girl.hopefully it is better then your knowledge about videogames.

[ATiElite]

"I’m so excited to play that because I never play video games.”

IDK? something is just all wrong with this statement.

"It has incredible graphics and it’s very violent"
Violent? OK i'll let that slide but incredible Graphics...WTF? She obviously has no clue as to what she is talking about.

[Zanarkand]

Its either CoD or nothing at all. That's just my opinion though. People should not begin going this route, its contagious.

[TheDivine]

Wow lot of bandwagon haterz here. Cod black ops has good graphics people. Maybe i played a different version that looked great on my 360 and 46in hdtv. Sure theres some games that look better but this is still a damn fine looking game. Bad graphics are games like risen on 360 or cod on the wii, this is fine and it runs at 60fps. Stop knocking people for enjoying arguably the most fun fps out at the moment, not everybody has to have the same opinions.

[Hicken]

Good graphics compared to Pac-Man, sure.

[Rashonality]

DICE should give her a code for BF3 Alpha.

[rataranian]

who?

[MrBubble]

The graphics were amazing.

Hahaha thanks for the laugh.

[SlaughterMeister]

Are gamers seriously such losers that it actually qualifies as news when a woman enjoys video games?

This has gone from dumbass kids on Live getting excited because a girl is online to being absolutely pathetic.

[Koromaro]

I feel sorry for her. There's better games out there.

[RowSand]

thats explaines why shes is allways in violent movies like zombie movies. i bet she enjoying the zombie mode in black ops

[BIGBOSS08]

yeh big deal, celebrities play videogames. they are human you know.

[Rahim92]

It wasn't the headline that caught my attention.

It was that Gorgeous FACE !

Oh yeah and F*** Black Ops.
