It's time for your semi-regular Monday catch-up video, giving you all the news stories you need to know about from the weekend's happenings - and all in handy 60-second chunks. However, today our regular filming room was in use, so we had to settle for a comfy leather sofa instead. Sounds great in theory, but we probably won't be using that again in any particular hurry. Anyway, today's topics include: Gears of War 3's Chicken Gun, the same game's triumph over multi-format F1 2011 in the UK charts, new details on the Mass Effect movie and very bad news for casual game company Zynga.
