MTV Does Games This Week

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the if-not-right-then-better dept.

MTV is taking another crack at a 'Gamer's Week' this week, and they're already showing they've learned since last year. Offering programming that's about 100x more respectful than anything at G4 (thank you Stephen Totilo), Gamer's Week 2.0 (really obnoxious Flash) will offer up many segments all week long on the next-gen consoles, upcoming and popular released games, and even some games industry esoterica. From the GameSetWatch article: "Tuesday, 11/14 — The spotlight falls on video game classics on Sucker Free as it features special Pro-Gamers, like Triforce from Empire Arcadia, the first fully realized urban gaming clan seeking prize money in organized competitions and arcade hustling, Dana Platt from 'VOA: Valkyries of Arcadia' and David 'Walshy' Walsh from Kianeto gaming clothing, and a look back at Tetris, Grand Theft Auto 3, Pacman and Super Mario Bros."

  1. Games on MTV? by turbopunk · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What, MTV, aka Music Television, is showing games . . . ?

    MTV doesn't even show music, but they're showing games?

    Well, I guess if they show games, the background music will cause them to play more music in an hour then they have so far this year . . .
