Back in the day, Kane was the master of the PC game, Kingpin.
"I was actually really good at it, so that was my claim to fame," said Kane. "I could actually go in and normally win the death matches. What's cool about Kingpin was I was able to make my own skins. I was able to import my mask into the game so my guy ran around wearing Kane's mask while I was playing."
Kane recently moved to the boondocks, so he currently doesn't have access to Xbox Live or online gaming. But when Halo 2 first came out, he spent a lot of time gaming online against people who had no idea who they were fragging.
"I don't think people would say things if they knew who I was when they were playing me," said Kane. "And I think some people probably spend way too much time playing that stuff; they have to be logging some serious hours. Some of the players are just that phenomenal."
These days, with all the travel that the WWE requires, Kane gets good use out of his PSP.
"The PSP is a pretty popular system because it doesn't take up a lot of room," said Kane. "It has the Wi-Fi connections so the guys can play each other. We've had some long trips overseas and the guys will actually get some games going on the PSPs. One of the best time-passes I've ever had on a transatlantic flight was a three-way tables, ladders and chairs match with me playing as myself and then the other two guys were playing as Shelton Benjamin and the 80s Hulk Hogan. We had like an hour-long match. With the portability, you don't lose much in gameplay and graphics because it's such an awesome little machine."
Kane is currently starring in THQ's WWE vs. Smackdown 2007 on PSP, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 2. Gamers can take control of the huge wrestler in high definition on Xbox 360 or bring him on the go with the portable version.
