Celebrity Appearances in Video Games

For as long as there have been videogames, some of it just need a little something extra to bring them from good to great the games industry has desperately courted the attention and approval of Hollywood to lend their voice and/or appearances to their games.

Avril Lavigne

The sixth expansion without doubt leans toward the last variety. Although this extension strives to add a factor of glamor to the vicinity by allowing your more "creative" Sims to hunt careers in the entertainment business, it comes off as more of an exercise in perkiness.

 Snoop Dogg

You take on Nick a Los Angeles police officer suspended indefinitely for unspecified infractions that have you classified as a "loose cannon" that no one else on the force wants to work with and almost completely unlikable.

Beatles
 
The game’s ‘Story’ mode follows the band’s extraordinary career arc, captivating in the flashpoints and highlights and projecting them, big as brass right into your living room. Every song has a exceptional video to go along with it that reflects the song's themes and its place in the Beatles' career. It lets players execute a variety of Beatles hits and supports up to three vocalists singing in harmony.  

Drew Carey

The Sims: House Party is the second add-on for Maxis' extremely popular life simulator, The Sims: House Party's new features, which focus primarily on social interaction, enhance the basic game considerably; since they let you throw wild parties and make building houses even more enjoyable.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena follows up the story from the original game title as Riddick must now flee the Dark Athena, following his harrowing escape from the notorious prison. As a prisoner of Butcher Bay, Riddick must worry about getting shanked by fellow inmates, capped by overzealous guards and torn to pieces by the mutants that live in the tunnels below.
 
Jesse James
 
The game's story mode essentially plays out like a Viva La Bam scavenger hunt, with two teams--one led by Tony Hawk and the other by Bam Margera--setting out on the World Destruction Tour. So your goals don't focus so much on becoming a star of the skateboarding world.

Britney Spears

It's got five of Britney Spears' most popular songs, a solid musical scheme on which to play, and it's remarkably challenging,  you're a potential dancer in Britney's dance troupe. If you can pass the auditions, then you can join the tour. Lucky you! You can pick from six generic dancers, all of whom look overly hip (cool, bad, slick, and wicked, whatever you want to call them)
 
Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon captures the essence of beat ‘em style gameplay while incorporating a cheap type of adventure into it. Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon is totally linear, there is really no such thing as exploring, or even looking.
 
Michael Jackson

A map of the stage is shown before it begins, and after which, Jackson must get from the start to the end without losing all his health, rescuing all the children and defeating all the enemies along the way.
