Boom Blox producer impressed by "gamer" Spielberg
Steven Spielberg, aside from being one of the most successful movie directors on the planet, is definitely a serious games fan, and his involvement with EA's forthcoming Wii title Boom Blox has been far greater than a line for PR.

"I was actually pretty surprised to find out how much of a gamer Steven Spielberg is," said Rahimi.

But also recent games, like Crysis, he talks a lot about."
