The real question:

Easter egg or clever marketing?
When you are prepared, there's no such thing as pressure.

Its nice to see the game beign difunded over different channels.
I can understand the comments on how this just feed the old stereotypes, but if you follow the show (Alcatraz) you will notice that "Hugo Reyes" is a very geek like and cool character, and it was just natural for him to be the one playing the game as its the only character that fits the "normal gamer" role.
If we as gamers dont start changing our own way to look at ourselves as a community these bias will not fade away.

Still, i think its sad that they showed some sort of 4gate... As a T player is what i come across regularly but well... i guess i would have been more pleased with a voidray rush or somethin :D (but yeah.. it was a PvP)
It's getting too hot.

Close. Someone brings in a 360, bunch of games (can't see the titles) and a headset. You can tell where all the marketing is....damn you, nubsoft live.

Yah pretty much, and furthermore, pvp and fourgate, really? The worst the game has to offer?
Man 6pool would've been better at this point.

Blizzard cannot into marketing it seems.

You think a person is going to go look up a game played in a tv show? It was cool exposure but I'm sure Blizzard isn't expecting any additional sales

Well I rather see this sort of thing in tv shows than seeing Rage (or any other fps) played as a railshooter (Breaking Bad).

I just wish they didnt show the player as a stereotypical gamer "fat person with no life".

Pretty sure someone on the crew has extensive PvP experience :D
