Stand-Up Comedy, About Gaming??
Despite hundreds of millions of people who are video gamers out there, it’s still not very cool to talk about it publicly.
But enter Dara O’Brian, a comic who thinks its about time video games were the subject of a mainstream comedy bit. I don’t think I’ve ever heard Metal Gear Solid brought up in this high profile of a show, much less someone shouting “Snake? Snake? SNAAAAAAKE!” onstage.
I especially like the bit about having to unlock content in games like Guitar Hero, I just spent $60 and I have to wait three hours to play the song I want? Please.
Check out the full bit above.

This is hysterical. Shared it a million times on facebook. There should be a whole comedy stand up tour dedicated to nerd talk such as this.
It’s especially nerdy since Dara O’Briain graduated in theoretical physics.
