Scissor Sisters, French DJ and producer Martin Solveig, UK ‘superstars’ Fabio and Grooverider and Quiksilver riders including Mathieu Crepel, Danny Wheeler and Jakob Wilhelmson are ganging up, apparently according to Microsoft to, “take on gamers across Europe, direct from the Alps”. This, of course, refers to the
Xbox Big Day Out 2007 which takes place in the French ski resort of Val d'Isère this week. Specifically it refers to the Game With Fame sessions that Xbox Live members can join in with without having to fly to France.
According to Microsoft, “Thousands of the five million Xbox Live members will vie for their chance to take part in this momentous week for Gaming with Fame across a range of titles, including
Tony Hawk Project 8 and the newly released
Fusion Frenzy 2. The events will take place following each day’s competition on the slopes on Tuesday 27th February, Wednesday 28th February and Thursday 1st March 2007.”
