Echo Kellum Interview, Part 4: Gaming & Olicity

To get another geeky question in here: If we looked in your console right now…what game is in your console?

ECHO KELLUM:  Oh man, let’s see.  I’m actually right in front of my x-box.  Let me see what’s in there.  Of course, Witcher 3

.  It’s been there a lot.  I was playing Destiny

so much and I was so thankful Witcher 3 came out because Destiny

is like a drug that you just can’t…Every free moment I got I was popping in Destiny

And what game have you clocked the most hours on, total, do you think?

ECHO KELLUM:  I’ve probably put 600 hours on Destiny

.  Let me see what else I’ve got right here.  Oh yeah, Batman

; I’ve been playing that again.  I’ve probably put in about 25 on that.  And its crazy because I’m an extremely busy person!  I’ll just sit at home at night whenever I have free time or I’ll wake up a couple of hours early to play.  I should be getting more sleep!

ECHO KELLUM:  I know!  It’s so true.  I honestly do have to wake up super early before the kids and the girl wake up and I’m like “oh my god, I have to get a little bit of video game time in before they get up and demand me!”  After all these months its just always…find a little time.  I think I’m done with Destiny

Speaking as someone as someone who’s into it right now, I couldn’t agree more.

ECHO KELLUM:  I’m very excited for Metal Gear 5

 to come out in September.  That’s going to be my next hot joint for sure.

ECHO KELLUM:  I think its some of the best storytelling in a video game series of all time.  Hideo Kojima is just…I mean, he’s brilliant.  The stories he tells, the way it connects with military, government and the patriot, its just so exhillerating.  I just love all of that.  And then obviously Final Fantasy

 is the thing I’m most excited for…But then Fallout

 that’s coming out too, I’m definitely going to love that.  I’ve been playing Fallout The Vault (Shelter) on the iPhone just to get a little taste of the world.

Nice.  I have one last very important question and this may make or break your future on Arrow.  It’s very serious.

ECHO KELLUM:  Absolutely.  100% man, I ship Olicity!  Let’s go Olicity!  Heck yeah!

Thanks so much for this. Echo, this has been great.  I can just tell, we’ve been talking for what, 20 minutes?  The fans are gonna love you.  You’re  one of us.

ECHO KELLUM:  Thanks man, I really appreciate that.
