Conan O’Brien does a segment on Conan called “Clueless Gamer” in which he plays video games, usually with help from Aaron Blayaert. So far he’s reviewed Skyrim, Minecraft, Resident Evil, Just Dance 4, and Hitman: Absolution. Now he’s reviewing Halo 4, and it follows the usual pattern of Conan impatiently grumbling while Blayaert tries to explain the overly-complicated backstory of a modern gaming franchise. “There’s no prologue to Pong,” Conan gripes. I know that feel, bro.
After the backstory it gets much funnier, with the usual double entendres (“She updated your firmwear while you were asleep.” … “I bet she did.”) and joyous violence. Guess what happens when Conan O’Brien plays Halo 4 and meets the character he voiced.
Sleep tight, Richter.

Conan’s reaction to the fantasy back story is almost identical to mine when people try to explain stuff like that to me.
He needs to bump this up to a weekly segment. Video game companies should be paying him for the honor of reviewing their game.
Best one of these yet.
