Kotaku has issued the following report from Mike Fahey:
During our post-BlizzCon interview with OZZY OSBOURNE, the rock legend revealed that he had once been addicted to a video game. Help us figure out which game that was.
Ozzy is not exactly known for his clarity, so you'll have to forgive us if we cannot tell you exactly which game he was talking about being addicted to during Saturday night's interview. I'll go ahead and give you what he said, as best as I can make it out. Then you folks can help us fill in the blanks.
"The only one I ever played is that fucking (unintelligible) I got addicted to that instantly years ago was that fucking video game where the fucking guy jumps off the fucking cliff. Sort of this old (well, or whale?). I was playing all fucking night."Read more at this location.
