Games Come To the Colbert Nation

Stephen Colbert's hit Comedy Central show "The Colbert Report" has already seen some game-related activities. You may recall the day he retired his dice because of Dungeons and Dragons Online's launch, or "Everything Bad is Good For You" author Steven Johnson's appearance on the show. Last week, though, with the release of the Wii, Colbert had to "get his Wii on", and demonstrated Wii Boxing vs. a virtual Nancy Pelosi. Next Monday will see veteran game designer Will Wright on the show.

    Colbert has a doctorate in truthiness.

    No doubt Will will be on to start some SPORE buzz. A game based on evolution should give Colbert some killer material.

    "...nothing he or Jon Stewart does is funny, and you idiots only think it's funny because you mistake smarminess for humor"

    mmm hmm. So... basically you're saying there's a massive delusion that a couple of guys are funny that you are completely unaffected by. How does one guy about massively de-frauding people of laughter?

    You probably also think he's a Republican who likes Bill O'Reilly (however his name is spelled).
