14 DAY TRIAL // Every member of the gaming community is anxiously waiting for Assassin's Creed while reading previews and watching trailers of the game. However, new details about Ubisoft's upcoming hit title keep popping up. For example we just got word that Kristen Bell, one of the hotties who are part of the Heroes cast will be featured in the game. She will play one of the important characters and lend her voice and likeness to our joy, as we always love games which include female movie stars.
Jade Raymond, Assassin's Creed's producer claimed that Kristen is able to deliver "the emotional range and talent" needed in order to play the character assigned to her. In case you have no idea who the 27 year old babe is, you'll probably know her as Elle, one of the characters in NBC's Heroes TV show. Keep in mind that she was only featured in 2 episodes so far, but I've seen her act in Veronica Mars and Deadwood. There were also rumors about a LOST part for her, but nothing solid till now.
Kristen Bell claims that's she's a big video gamer and that she'll take advantage of the chance of "being a part of the video game history". What's with all those divas being featured in games nowadays? A week ago we informed you about Angelina Jolie and her virtual character's nudity in Beowulf and now Kristen Bell gets ready to storm our consoles. Game producers are keener on working with female stars who have already appeared in many movies, than using masculine icons. They assume that their public is mostly masculine, but the surveys always prove them wrong.
The only way to test if the popularity of a game featuring a masculine sex-symbol manages to surpass the fame of hottie-based title is to cast Orlando Bloom and Brad Pitt in one of the upcoming blockbusters and see what happens...
