Video games the future of music PR?

Has anyone else heard of an artist/label doing this for music promotion? So far I've found 2 people doing this to promote their music, it seems like a very new technique. This one is actually fun and addicting and you can unlock free track downloads if you finish it:

Damn, I had forgotten about that. I took it with my phone, I'll transfer it to my laptop and upload it when I get home.

It looked very real, it was awesome.
