9 June 2011, Singapore – The popular video-gaming programme ‘Game’ returns for its fifth season this Saturday 11 June 2011 with a new female host, Kelly Latimer, joining Mark ‘Fraggot’ Lim to showcase the very latest from the electronic entertainment world on STAR Sports.
Moving to a new weekend time slot, this Saturday’s show will start the season with a special on-site coverage of the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) – the world-renowned annual convention trade show for the computer and video games industry – held in Los Angeles this week.
Hosted by ‘gamer girl’ Mizzie, in her final appearance along with new presenter Kelly Latimer, the series will feature the latest and the freshest gaming innovations. The inaugural episode will feature a slew of exclusive content and opinions on this year’s E3 including our take on the latest announcements from the major players, a special feature piece on ‘The Future of Kinect’ and the Fraggot’s very own ‘best of’ for this year’s show.
Latimer, who was recently seen hosting the inaugural Youth Olympic Games 2010 and STAR Sports’ Engine Block, relishes the opportunity to co-host on ‘Game’, as the self-confessed gamer and sports fan aims to marry her passion for television presenting, sports and video games.
“There’s no better opportunity to bring sports and video gaming as part of my job, my two things I’m most enthusiastic about. Being a part of the show allows me to get first-hand news and innovations from around the video-gaming world, and working in Asia’s biggest sports content provider offers me the best opportunity to further grow my career,” said Latimer.
