(M = Media, AW= Ashley Walters)
M: Who do you want to win for best game award tonight?
AW: I’m not sure you know to be honest. I couldn’t really say. I got four kids that play games a lot more than me so I am around them all the time. Actually playing them I’m not sure. I am presenting the Artistic Achievement Award tonight. In there are three games I really, really love: Uncharted, Skyrim and LA Noire. I’m a big fan of them, obsessed with them at the moment. Out of the three if I had to pick I’d go for LA Noire
M: Do you play games much in you own time?
AW: I do, I do. I’ve just been given a AAA card from EA which basically entitles you to free games any time you want. So we’ve been buying a lot of games. We just got FIFA Street through, I also got Street Fighter X Tekken which I started playing today which is amazing. I’m a big FIFA fan as well, so I play football, predominantly with my son.
M: What’s your team?
AW: I’m Arsenal. We mix it up a bit; we change a few of the players and teams.
M: Thanks for your time.
