Video Game Week starts tonight on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon
This week, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon invites guests from the gaming industry to show off some cool new games and toys. The NBC late night talk show starring SNL’s most notorious crack-up artist airs week nights at 12:35 PST/11:35 Central in the US.
Jimmy usually takes this opportunity to sample games and hardware that not many people get to lay their greasy hands on. But this is television and advertising working its magic. Having a comedic forum for which to showcase Call of Duty: Black Ops II will be epic, not to mention an embarrassing moment for Fallon to reveal how terrible he is at first person shooters. Golf is more his game.
Its clear that games from E3 are the focus of Late Night’s Video Game Week. Lets take a look at the schedule below:
