“I injured my hand so severely”

Actor Matthew Perry is well-known for starring in many iconic TV shows and movies, but he once became a part of a video game project, his first and last. Not many people know that Perry was a huge fan of the Fallout franchise, so obviously, it was a dream come true for him when he got a voice role in 2010’s Fallout: New Vegas. What’s crazy is that Bethesda and Obsidian believed that he deserved the role because he was obsessed with Fallout 3.

on the NBC television sitcom Friends (1994-2004). The actor has earned and been nominated for various prestigious awards for his iconic roles, making him one of the best actors of the 2000s.

and revealed that he is a huge fan of the Fallout franchise. He further revealed that he was such a huge fan of 2008’s Fallout 3 that he had to visit a doctor. After giving a copy of the game to host Ellen DeGeneres, he revealed,

I played this video game so often that I injured my hand so severely that I had to go to a hand doctor and get injections in my hand because I love this video game so much… The game is called Fallout 3. I’m not affiliated with this game at all, I just love it. But I signed it, so it looks like I created it.

We can’t blame Perry, as Fallout 3 received many Game of the Year awards, and is considered one of the best video games ever made. In its first week, the game shipped almost five million copies.

As for its Metacritic scores, the game earned 91/100 on PC, 90/100 on PS3, and 93/100 on Xbox 360, which was remarkable. The game is widely praised for its open-ended gameplay and flexible character-leveling system; in fact, players have been asking Bethesda to remaster the game for many years now.

This interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show caught the attention of Bethesda and Obsidian, two studios that were working on a spin-off called Fallout: New Vegas. Perry seemed perfect to be the voice actor for Benny in the game, making it his first video game project. After that, Perry never worked with a video game developer, which proves that he held a special place in his heart for the Fallout franchise.

Throughout his career, Perry appeared in well-known TV shows and movies like The West Wing (2003) and The Ron Clark Story (2006), which earned him ********** Emmy Award nominations. The highlight of his career was his work in Friends, as it earned him an Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series Award.

Apart from this, he was loved by fans for his leading performance in movies like Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (2006–2007), Fools Rush In (1997), Almost Heroes (1998), Three to Tango (1999), The Whole Nine Yards (2000), Serving Sara (2002), The Whole Ten Yards (2004), and 17 Again (2009).

In 2023, the actor passed away at his home in Los Angeles at the age of 54, with the cause of death being ruled as acute effects of ketamine. Shortly after that, five people were charged in connection with helping him acquire lethal doses of the drug.
