"Players can go up against any number of opponents in the online version of the TV show 1 vs. 100 -- and it has a live host!
Apparently video games are becoming the new must-see TV.
For the next couple weekends, thousands of Canadians will sit down in front of their televisions at precisely 10 p.m. ET on Friday and 7 p.m. ET on Saturday. But instead of flicking on the cable box and falling asleep to Numb3rs or losing brain cells to Entertainment Tonight Canada, they'll be playing an online game show.
In an intriguing melding of video games with so-called appointment TV, Microsoft has launched an online version of the Bob Saget-hosted NBC game show 1 vs. 100 for the Xbox 360. The game is undergoing its first "beta" trial run here in Canada before its full debut later this year in North America and parts of Europe.
Like its TV sibling, 1 vs. 100 pits a single contestant ("the One") against 100 opponents ("the Mob") in a series of multiple choice trivia questions that escalate in difficulty. The more members of the Mob that the One can eliminate before bowing out or being knocked out himself, the bigger the prize."
It's been a little bit since we last heard about a possible 1 vs. 100 revival on Xbox Series X|S, but Xbox still hasn't done anything to discourage the rumors. If it does come back though, will it actually be able to outlast the original?
During Fanfest, Spencer said that that they were planning a fan fest trivia, and the entire team was working on the project. However, it didn't turn out the way they wanted. He continued saying we are still planning to do something... "maybe we should even be building our own trivia game like from our past and allow people to play a trivia game more often. Maybe that could happen."
Yes 100%. Loved even the possibility of rewards and playing with friends online is so important during these times , 1vs100 was great.

this 100%!!!! they could put it on gamespass even if that would be what they have to do.
Why.. so it could be ignored..? It'S GOT to be on GWG FIRST then later be put on Gamepass
I'm just saying if they need to recoup costs, I'd rather it be for gold subscribers of course so more people could enjoy it.
@godmars. Games with gold is the free games you get with your gold subscription, gamespass is a separate service where you get access to lots of games and all of the Microsoft owned games
Man, this was that type of quality app that made the 360 shine back in the day. This was crazy fun
