Real-Life Call Of Duty 3 'Game Show'? Sure!

- Thanks to our favorite reality TV news site, Reality Blurred, we note that this weekend's episode of the Geoff Keighley-presented Game Head on Spike TV will feature a reality TV version of Call Of Duty 3.

Apparently: "The episode, “Call of Duty 3: Challenge,” features 16 “unsuspecting” gamers who will compete in physical and mental challenges that allow them “to see what happens when a game becomes a reality,” according to a Spike TV press release."

What's more: "The episode “combines the heart-pounding action of the best-selling video game franchise with the unscripted drama of the best reality TV,” and the winner gets prizes and “a trip for two to Normandy, France, the setting of so much of the action in the popular game franchise." Yes, this is vaguely disturbing, but hey, that's TV for you.

And when all this will be in Russia?
Poorly that унас is not present!
