Chobot voiced news reporter Diana Allers, a non-player character modelled in her likeness who is a potential romance option of Commander Shepard, the main character of the 2012 video game Mass Effect 3. Although Chobot hosted a preview of the game for G4 in January 2012, Chobot and the media organizations she worked for at the time had made it known that she would not review the game in any official capacity. Her involvement in the video game was criticized by many as a conflict of interest; in response, Chobot emphasized that she is an on-screen personality who never considered herself to be a journalist, and that BioWare never asked her for any favors in return. In a retrospective comment about the controversy, Chobot noted that she was never asked for her side of the story by people who write about her in the media.
On November 4, 2013, Chobot began work as the main host of Nerdist News, a news show focusing on nerdy pop culture updates airing 5 days a week on Nerdist.com.
