Tera Patrick from Backyard Wrestling 2
by Mike Thompson - 4th November 2004Tera Patrick, star of such classic films like Asian Street Hookers 7 and Open Wide and Say Ahh! 6 (seriously, we're not making this up), is one of the latest round of celebrities to appear in video games. Patrick is one of the headliners for Eidos's upcoming wrestling game, Backyard Wrestling 2: There Goes The Neighborhood.
Xequted: Thanks for taking the time sit down and talk with us. Would you mind telling our readers who you are and what your role in Backyard Wrestling 2 is?
Tera Patrick: Are you suggesting that you and your readers don't know who I am? *laughs* My name is Tera Patrick , and I am here to kick your @$$!
Xequted: According to your biography on the Internet Movie Database, you have a degree in microbiology and are a registered nurse. What made you want to become a film star after college and nursing school?
Tera Patrick: After I posed nude for Playboy and Penthouse, the opportunity to appear in adult and mainstream films presented itself. I did it to get rich, and ended up becoming some kind of porn star, I guess. Sex sells!
Xequted: Is this your first time appearing in a video game?
Tera Patrick: Actually it is! My whole family are big gamers, and now that Eidos has immortalized me forever, I am the coolest one in the house!
Xequted: What led to your involvement with this project?
Tera Patrick: Kevin at Eidos knew my husband Evan because he had used his band, Biohazard's, music in the first BYW! I guess he heard we were together and contacted us! At the time, Evan was doing voiceovers on Rockstar's "Manhunt"
Xequted: How have your fans reacted to your involvement with Backyard Wrestling 2?
Tera Patrick: A lot of my fans are totally psyched, I personally think it is a great marriage, sexy models, and gaming... this is the virtual world right, where anything is possible? Maybe I will create a game where you can date porn stars!
Xequted: What made you choose a wrestling game, why not Formula 1, Biking, or something a less violent?
Tera Patrick: What sells? Sex and violence, period!
Xequted: Do you take the sport seriously? And do you have any tips for fans wanting to get into the 'sport'?
Tera Patrick: Don't try this at home, the weed-whacker really hurts!
Xequted: Can you tell us about the development side of your character in the game? For example, how many long did you spend hooked up in motion capture gear...did you have any say on how you character was put 'into' the game?
Tera Patrick: I insisted that my character had special moves and was really the most agile! Tera Patrick shouldn't be easily defeated! I wonder what the Eidos guys came up with for cheat codes... am I invincible in naked mode? Maybe I have a strap-on and I [can] stick it to one of the clowns, in a kind of prison love kinda way... I hate clowns! There was a lot of reference photography, but if I give away Eidos' trade secrets they probably wouldn't be too happy!
