Drake's in Gears of War 3 and he ain't alone.
Drakes in Gears of War 3!!
Well after seeing Jay Z and Eminem endorse and the news that Ushers in DJ Hero 2, Pharrell Williams will headline the soundtrack to the action game and Black Ops. The news has been announced that https://gearsofwar.xbox.com/AgeGate.htm in (the biggest game of 2011) Drake will now be joining the cast of Unlike the the other artists, this isn't he just loaning a track or making one for the game, he's actually gonna be a character!! And its not some random part its apparently one of the main dudes in the game. He's gonna be playing Joce Stratton who will be a central character to the final chapter in this game trilogy.
And he says really excited "When Epic came to me with the role, I couldn't pass it up," said Drake. "They've created an amazing character in Jace, and I'm looking forward to my tour in Delta Squad." The game isn't dropping untill Aprill next year, but I can't wait to get my hands on it.
What do you think about artists getting involved in games? Do you think its big kids indulging themselves? Does it add anything special to the game? Or are marketing men smelling gaming dollars? Do you think Drake really plays Gears or do his kids just want free Xboxes for life? Holla back on the blog let me know what you think.

Drake was actually a main character in school drama 'Degrassi High' for years. He actually played a wheelchair-bound dude, so he has got some acting chops to play a game voice-over...Maybe not enough to play James Earl Jones in a Biopic, but still...lol
Ps. dat Mef tune brought back memories...Good times...
Bless up!!

BUT, whoever is the voice-over MUST be able to vocally act. If not, forget it. Being famous is not a good enough reason!

so he was already drawn and ready to go.
So they went to drake is the hottest thing right now
(might help them sell more copys like they needed it to!)
