  That's "Tomorrow Never Dies!"  C'mon, you're British - Bond films should be 
in your blood.  :-)

  Well, I personally think that those "You Know Who..." ads are targeted more 
towards the older crowd, and that's reflected in the game types they show: 
soccer (oops, that's "football" in Europe), racing, and so on.  Diddy Kong 
Racing is shown in a different ad altogether.
