Ricky Gervais – GTA IV Cameo

[singlepic=28,160,120,,right]Never one to let a bit of ingenious self-publicity get in the way of his credibility, Ricky Gervais has revealed that he is appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV.

At last, a reason not to buy it!

According to VideoGamer:

Gervais will be found in Liberty City’s comedy club performing a short stand-up routine featuring three minutes of new material plus extracts from his Fame tour.

“It’s a first – which always interests me,” said Gervais. “It was shot in New York, my favourite place in the world, and I got to wear a tight lycra suit as part of the digital process. No, hold on, that wasn’t so good.

“Unfortunately they captured the whole horror, except I look slightly tougher. It is seriously a big deal, though. Games have outsold Hollywood for the past few years so it’s nice to be a small part of that.”

So from April 29th on PS3 and Xbox 360 you can own a piece of comedy history.

You poor, poor bastards.

I like to write a bit about comedy, have had a script performed in the Sitcom Trials and perhaps I even fancy myself as a standup...
