Red Dead Redemption played on The Big Bang Theory

Published at 6:20 PM PST

This weeks episode of The Big Bang Theory had quite a large suprise in-store for Rockstar fans - not just the mention of Red Dead Redemption, but actual gameplay. The 2 minute scene involves Sheldon clearing his head by walking around Armadilo and taking some 'digital alcohol' to drink his troubles away.

Grand Theft Auto even gets a mention in a one-liner that has to be one of, if not the first, cross-Rockstar games jokes I've ever heard. Even if you're not a fan of the show, it's worth a look, I guarantee you'll get a laugh out of it:

Two Rockstar series mentioned in the same episode of a show, a two-for-one deal, I do believe that's a record. Perhaps the best part of all of this is that Red Dead Redemption will be 2 years old this May, and after 2 years the game is still mainstream and popular enough to be mentioned on primetime. Congrats Rockstar!
