Jean Claude van Damme to star in "What's your game" ad
According to the European website, the next celebrity to get the "What's your game?" ad treatment will be none other than Timecop himself, Jean Claude Van Damme. The kickboxer-turned-B-movie-superstar (yes, superstar-- what else do you call Guile himself?!?) will appear in the next round of television ads for World of Warcraft. I can't wait to see it.The line for speculating about what character he'll be starts right here. My gut is telling me a troll of some kind, but it would be so much funnier if they went with, say, a female Human priest. Why would Van Damme do something that wacky? The same reason he does everything: "To honor you, shidoshi."

Naah, blood elf rogue...

My thoughts exactly. I was going to say a BElf Paladin because of the hair style, but you're right, Rogue fits a bit better. :D

Draenei because they both have funny (although entirely different) accents.

I bet he plays a French Foreign Legionnaire.

I thought the next commercial was going to be Verne Troyer, when's that one coming out or has it been cancelled?

Ok, for posting a near-pinup of the guy...I demand a return of the cute chick from the voice chat posts.
Saphia Dec 5th 2007 2:48PM
boo. There's female readers here too you know. (though I could think of some better than van Damme)

This was the funniest picture I saw of the guy, so I went with it. Although yes, I look forward to any posts about voice chat now, because I always enjoy posting a cute girl in a headset. It's the little things that make this job fun. :)

David Hasseloff needs to do one!
Although they need to Jon Heder to do one and have him be a BElf. How awesome would that be? :D

Now if they could only get Chuck Norris to do an ad. That would be EPIC!

This post wins on so many levels just for that.

They made Mr. T a NElf, so I really don't know how to predict this one. I however guess him to be some sort of Rogue...perhaps troll or BElf.
Markymark Dec 5th 2007 3:14PM
Lol he seems like a melee class to me so probably a rogue or warrior with fist weps lol.
Mad Cow Dec 5th 2007 3:16PM
i got 25g in our guild wager he plays a troll mage.
Grais Dec 5th 2007 3:21PM
If Chuck Norris does one, they'll have to make up an entirely new class, moreso than the Night-Elf Mohawk. Or perhaps he'd just help unveil the Death Night class.
ThorinII Dec 5th 2007 3:30PM
Female Gnome of any class would be hillarious, but my guess is BE rogue.
