Has anyone else seen this thing on TV?

In the UK ads on TV for games used to be very rare but in recent months there have been a lot more. Not seen any ads for Bioshock yet but Gears of War was shown a lot with the "Mad World" song running in the background. Very atmospheric ad.

I think I'll happily experience this more than once so while still a crazy idea it isn't completely nuts.

I have my 360 hooked up in a similar setup. Mine's attached to my 42" Samsung Plasma. Nothing quite like games in HD Saying that I still tend to play my PC more lol.
