Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling and film star Simon Pegg take to the small screen to demonstrate the next Call of Duty with late-night host and noted gaming enthusiast Jimmy Fallon tonight.

The rest of the week on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon looks like this:

  • Tuesday 6/14: Gears of War 3
  • Wednesday 6/15: Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
  • Thursday 6/16: Battlefield 3
  • Friday 6/17: Nintendo

The show to note in particular is Battlefield 3 on Thursday, during which EA will showcase the console version of the game for the first time.

Whatever you think of the guy's humor, Fallon always comes across as a genuine gamer who loves using his fame as a way to showcase games to mainstream audiences. You have to respect him for that.

    Too bad the only good games hes doing is gears 3 and BF 3....id prefer something that isnt so bland like COD....such a cookie cutter game...Thatd be sick if he did Skyrim or Rage...

    EDIT: I've never played uncharted so i cant judge it :p im sure itd be a good game though

    Infinity Ward is so desperate to make a good game they have to rely on trying to rip on the games that are obviously better. They have never had a good game,and the only people that might have had a chance at making a good game left.

    This looks cool, Jimmy old boy, you might have just gotten yourself another viewer. I don't know why I don't watch more of these light night shows, it's not like I'm not awake at that hour. They already showed the PS3 version of BF3 at E3 if I recall correctly, but it will be interesting to see what it looks like myself.

    Big name games on a big name stage... wait at least part of that statement is true. Seriously I thought "J Fal" was dead unsettling news that he isn't. I'm just kidding Jimmy but seriously...

    Uh oh S**T just got real!!!  This week went from cool to amazing.  I'm hyped about all these games, and finally seeing some console stuff from BF3 is a definite cherry on top :-D.

    I love Jimmy, probably for the fact that he does seem like a genuine gamer. I will definitely be watching on Thursday.

    If you all want to sit through an hour of bad jokes delivered by a second rate actor and comedian who features the same tired interviews with the same tired celebrities for a 10 to 15 min segment featuring a cookie cutter demo and look of a game you probably already know way too much about be my guest. I might check out the BF3 footage on youtube but you couldn't pay me enough to watch that tool giggle and grin his way through 45 min of sheer crap.
