Lauren and I got to chat with "Clerks" star Brian O'Halloran at GameX.
While most of it wasn't game related as he talked about his recent movies and I made some comment about how I totally met him three years ago at a "Clerks" screening in Red Bank, N.J., we did find out what games he's been playing.
O'Halloran actually would help build PCs for friends of his and is a devout computer gamer. He plays a lot of Guild Wars because he doesn't like the idea of paying a monthly fee to play a game he already bought. The star of recent horror mockumentary "Brutal Massacre" is also a big first-person shooter fan, but only on the PC. Still, he also owns a Wii and a PlayStation 3.
Sadly, he has nothing to do with Dante's Inferno, but he is supposed to be here today.
Also, I unfortunately did not get to shoot the game-winning picture, which would've featured O'Halloran standing in front of EA's Dante's Inferno booth.
O'Halloran also works with the New Jersey Repertory Company and recently did a few days for James L. Brooks' latest movie (tentatively titled "How Do You Know?") and is waiting for the New York Yankees season to conclude so a film he is producing based on the life of a baseball batboy can begin filming.
OH! It's Dante! You should have a picture of Dante on this page.
"I'm not even supposed to BE HERE today!"
Lauren and I got a picture with him before we came up with the idea of having him stand in front of the Dante's Inferno booth. :(
That picture should be up tonight or tomorrow.
