Halo 3 (Xbox 360): Radio 1 goes Big on Gaming Weekend
Diabolical music, middle of the road presenters paid not to have real opinion or personality and a contrived "Big Weekend" consisting of, most likely, paid marketing for whichever companies have made deals. Sounds great to me...

I'd bet on the following taking place-
Two "uber fans" will duke it out over which is better; 360 or PS3.
Guitar Hero and Rock Band will be mentioned constantly because they're the easiest games to work into the whole being a music radio station scenario.
Pro Evolution versus Fifa debate.
Fern Cotton not mentioning her corporate shill status for Nintendo at all and saying she loves Rock Band and plays it ALL the time. She will do this unconvincingly, as is her style.

Perhaps the BBC would serve themselves and the underrepresented gamers of the UK better by making a TV show, what with gaming being a primarily visual medium, not filling it with BBC actors with new shows or other such Z-listers("Which member of the Eastenders cast is better at COD!" I can see it now), and not pissing away an undoubtedly substantial amount of money away on an easily forgotten weekend of half hearted presenters trying to sound excited about some 13 year old "gaming expert" explaining why the latest graphics are amazing.

Rant over. Itch scratched.

Yu Suzuki's five finest moments
"The game also introduced QTE events to the world"
Sorry to pull the pedant card, but I'm a bit bored of seeing this idea trotted out.
Have you by chance heard of Die Hard Arcade? The fantastic and mostly forgotten 3d Streets of Rage type arcade game? That featured QTE between stages years before Shen Mue hit shelves.
