I just finished playing 2 hours of 1 vs 100 live ( the one you win stuff on )

And i have to say it destroys scene it and buzz.

When casuals find out about this I think it will be a big system seller.

I have only been a part of the audience so far, but I managed to get in the top 10 on one round :D, saw one guy win about £50 worth of MS points and one girl lose that much!

Has anyone else played the 1 vs 100 live yet ? what are your thoughts?

I know there are some differences, but it's closer to an XBLA type game then a it is to retail game or to anything else the 360 does

yeah, played a few rounds of General Trivia. Pretty fun, but the questions later in the show are brutal. I use a lot of skips to keep my streak alive after the 20th question.

That was the casual play rounds, not the live rounds, which are completely different

i played it for a little while with some friends, even when we worked together we still struggled to get a streak of correct questions above 5 :S Can't really see all the little casual gamers dropping cooking mama or summit like that for 1 vs 100

lost out on winning that much. Basically she could have stopped playing and took the money, but she gambled on another question and got it wrong so she got nothing.

I think in the UK it will be a success. People love this kind of stuff here, who want to be millionaire, weakest link etc etc.

My parents love 1 VS 100 :). They even said they like it more than Buzz! I don't agree though. I don't think it will be a system seller though. A small incentive, yes.

If anything, the combination of Prime Time games will be more of a system seller. Not 1 VS 100 itself...

I highly doubt casuals will leave their Wii to buy a $300+ system for that one game, when they already have verisons on their console.

I dont think it will be a system seller, but I could be wrong. The way I see it casuals already have the Wii and that's all they want. The casual market is a 1 shot thing. They are like sheep and all get herded to one console and thats it. Casuals don't go on gaming websites and I honestly believe that a major driving force for the casual market is word of mouth. Its "Hey, everyone's doing it so it must be cool, right!?" type of thing with the casuals. And besides, most casuals only buy 1 system, and that is the Wii. When a casual goes over to their casual friends' house, they will play the Wii and (s)he will talk about how much fun it is playing Wii Sports, and it goes on and on like that. On the other hand, the majority of people with the X360 are more core gamers, and unless they are working for MS or lemming generals, you will probably catch them playing Gears rather than 1vs100. So when casuals come around, chances are most X360 gamers will be playing core games rather than 1vs100, and thus the "word of mouth" aspect wont really work here. Then again, I could be wrong :P

Meh, I disagree, the game isnt very good. While that is an OPINION, I highly doubt this will sell alot of 360s.

Id rather play WITS AND WAGERS on xbox arcade to be honest :P

I agree it destroys Scene it and Buzz and other games like that but I don't know I don't think it will be a system seller. I do think it might increase Xbox Live Gold subscriptions though. The game is just too fun. It makes me want to buy two more controllers because you can have 3 other people signed on as guests if they don't have Gold. It's a game the whole family and friends can enjoy playing.

me and my cousin were playing for the whole 2 hours of live play, and man, all i can say is that it involved a lot of laughing and tons of button mashing for instant answers. 100% pure fun.
