Rumor: William Shatner next celeb to be in PAIN

by Andrew Yoon on Jan 8th 2009 6:00PM

First David Hasselhoff, now William Shatner?

If VG247's supposed PlayStation Network calendar is to be believed, Star Trek star and Priceline.com spokesperson William Shatner will be the next celebrity offered for download in PAIN. SCEE hasn't confirmed the validity of this information, only saying "the PSN roadmap is for internal purposes" and "it's all subject to change." VG247 notes the Shatner addon will be available on March 19th.

i would actually buy this if its true. shatner kicks ass

Unless America has a huge fixation with William Shatner that I haven't heard about, I can't see this being popular at all. It actually seems a very stupid choice when so many a-list celebrities would probably be happy to lend themselves to the game. My guess would be that they just have a terribly low budget.

Oh come on! He's the shat! This is why he should be in Pain. The Hoff and Shat are both celebs everyone loves to make fun of, I think it's a great choice.

I can't think of anyone I'd like to fling upside of a building more than Captain Kirk.

EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!

isn't this guy from Star Trek? i think Torgo should be on Pain! xD

That's awesome. As a huge Trek fan this could be the reason that pushes me over the edge to buy this game. Great news!

i'm waiting for CHUCK NORRIS to be in PAIN

pain is okay, but ive yet to spend a dime on it. (I spend plenty on PSN, trust me)

oh, and btw, Germans, Love, David Hasselhoff

Chuck Norris Is Pain

in PAIN, you don't fling Chuck Norris - Chuck Norries flings you.

It's really too dangerous to make CN available in PAIN.

How about Paris Hilton as the next celeb on PAIN?

I don't get PAIN.

I don't get why you had to comment that you don't get PAIN. You seem to do it in every PAIN thread.

As a side note, day one pruchase!

Really??? what if i break your arm, would you feel pain

Packfan, I do not, this is my first comment on PAIN.

I bought the game and I don't understand what to do, that's what I meant.

Don't put Shatner in PAIN, he's a nice guy! He held the door open for me when I was going to my orthodontists a a couple of years ago lol.

Put Soulja Boy in PAIN, I would love to toss that loser around...
