Hmm, I predict will air in like...4 months.
Anyway, somethings that go could go wrong are:
*All three people beeing gigantic PS2 fanboys (I say this because most people in america like PS2 most, duh)
*They portray a gamers life style as dull, and unimportant, which is true in many-a-case. But many, like me, dont worship games, and discuss about them with freaky friends for 8 hours...
*They dont get a gamer who mentions the sites they visit for their living lives. They would be on to us...
This would all be the fault of MTV basicaly not in-tune enough with the hardcore community...

*Microsoft pays MTV a hefty sum of money and it's a half an hour (or is it an hour long) of fanboys praising Xbox while standing around lots of Xbox promos and showing Xbox video clips in between lots and lots of Xbox commercials...

Money is no expense for M$. 
Someone should mail them to get a fair opinion of all platforms... like 1 PC, 1 GC, 1 PS2 and 1 XB. And 1 AGB.

Hmmm, I'm going to take a look at Viacom, MTV's parent company and see if they have any ties financially to the gaming industry... should be interesting.

Not sure aout what's happen in the past few years with Viacom, but the Ol' "Viacom Newmedia" PC gaming company chruned out some pretty bad Crap in fancy packaging, I own one game, and the only reason I haven't trashed t is because it's better than half of the "new crap" everyone churns out. Also I wouldn't be on MTV for one reason: No Music is played on MUSIC TeleVision! I also hate M$, so I don't want to be a part of this, but watching a bunch of Xbox flunkies (not people with XBoxes, but the normal Fanboy, the guy who won't go near a GCN or PS2, I'll usea PS2 but it's not my first choice and I hate the way the Xbox handles and the company that makes it), should eb a good laugh, we've seen "Behind the MUsic" on VH1, now we can have "Behind the Controller" on MTV, I know that was abad pun, buti had to say something about those "Documentaries".
