This is sounding better and better!! What do you guys think??

"While 1 vs. 100 is undeniably fun, addictive and even free-to-play, its most compelling aspect for many will be the real prizes handed out during each live show. The One and The MOB compete for a share of 10,000 ($125) per episode; technically, if you're extremely good, you could take it all. Also, everyone in The MOB is competing for a free copy of that week's selected XBLA game. It's awarded to the top three point scorers each round and anyone who makes it into the last 10 MOB members standing.

Microsoft will also hold a once-per-season giveaway of Zunes and other electronics, which players can enter by taking part in the nightly Extended Play sessions. Placing among the top contestants will reward players with virtual raffle tickets for the drawing."

All this prE3 stuff is sounding rather interesting. Makes me think that maybe various execs weren't exaggerating when describing this years E3.

I just KNEW someone would say that, and that means you havent read the article. Next time, try reading it first ;)

"The questions are presented in rapid-fire fashion, with mere seconds to choose from three possible answers. (Don't even think about Googling -- there's not enough time. Plus, you'd be a cheater!"

Having to use google means you lose time points? I'm not sure if this implemented... But there should be a time penalty/bonus.

I think Zunes are better than Ipods, and i have both, the only issue is that the Zune is HUUUUGGGGEEEE compared to the ipod :P . IMO the Zune is the PS3 of MP3 players, it has many, many more features than the competition, yet people wanna go all "what everybody else has" (Wii) lol

I think MS has something truly innovative and exciting on their hand with Primetime. The community is certainly there. The infrastructure is there. I just hope that MS and its partners can pull it off and make it an enjoyable experience. If they do then I think it will be a huge boon for the 360. This is something that has the potential to appeal to all age groups. They will need more than just 1 vs. 100, but ever since the Primetime announcement, I have been intrigued.

Zune has more features than Ipod? They're different versions of the Ipod. the Itouch actually have more features than the Zune.

Yes, I'd love to win a new Zune. I've had one for nearly two years now and I absolutely love it.

you have a few secs to find a answer that could of happened anywhere on earth at any point of time, atleast a week before the game starts.....that would be hard

No, that's not what I'm saying. Winning a Zune from a failed TV game show sounds stupid is what I'm saying.

This is awesome. It's free for Gold members plus you get a chance to win real prizes. So you can be using a 48 hour Gold trial, play the game, and then win a years worth of Gold. My favorite part is that you don't even have to participate in the game, you can be part of the audience and just watch and look at all the Avatars. I'm looking forward to it.

A free prize worth a lot of money is a bad thing?

You need to try again because that doesn't make any sense either.
