Our loveable industry pals'n'buddies over at MCV have been showing that the UK video games industry isn't all "won't comment on rumour and speculation" and "going forward 24/7 out of the box". Some times that same industry likes to pretend to be in a vastly expanded version of the legendary boy-band, Five, singing a song that we daren't name.

At this point MCV films the event and they all laugh heartily - at least we assume they do; they won't, of course, comment on humorous speculation.

Not only that but after the filming and the editing, we were asked if our readers might be interested in watching a number of UK video games industry figures prancing around in the style of legendary boy-band, Five... going forward.

"Hell, yes!" we said.

We await the 'MCV Video Reactions' video responses to start appearing very soon.

The folks involved in the footage include:

David Yarnton - Nintendo
Michael Rawlinson - ELSPA
John Clark - Sega
Martyn Gibbs - Gamestation
Murray Pannell - Ubisoft
Keely Brenner - Disney Interactive
Sean Brennan - Bethesda
David Miller - Atari
Lee Kirton - Atari
Dan Holman - EA
Shaun White - EA
Rob Cooper - Ubisoft
Don McCabe - CHIPS
Rob Saunders - Nintendo
Jeremy Wigmore - Codemasters



And we don't want to be rude... see the story of the vid over at MCV.
