Lets Play Name That Typeface

I saw this typeface today on a huge billboard in Times Square and for the life of me I can’t remember the name of this face. I know I’ve used it before. Anyone know?

Chris that is pretty cool. I tested it and it didn’t seem to find the correct font. It could be cause of the tight letterspacing and leading.
