Why was such a seemingly popular game abruptly canceled? Examiner sat down with the game's former host, Chris Cashman, who explains what he thinks happened.

i think is was canceled because you could actually win real prizes on the game, and we all know microsoft dont like giving anything for free

.... MS replaced a boss who 'got it' with some guy 'who didn't get it'...

... which to me sadly seems to tell the story of MS the last 3 years orso.

Yeah...umm. you don't have "think." he explains what happened.

I take it you're not a member of Xbox Rewards or Bing? I haven't bought MSP in ages.

azazel6654089d ago

Haha me neither. I must have gotten almost 15,000 Microsoft Points free from using Bing Rewards by now.

oh wow. forgot about this for years.

I remember when they did this. They had that new primetime channel. It just kind of died out like the avatar arcade channel did too. Funny how the casuals killed this idea but sucked up Zumbo Kinect.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4089d ago

People want this? The last of us is coming..

Allsystemgamer4089d ago

Not for 360 gamers it isn't. Besides this was a fun game and a great drinking game

Could Xbox Live’s 1 vs. 100 Really Make a Comeback?

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?

Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Hints a Possible Return of The Iconic 1 vs 100 Game

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.

SmokinAces1270d ago

Sounds cool, definitely like the fun and challenge of a good trivia game.

Had a lot of fun with it, back in the day.
Wouldn't mind seeing it return.

gamer78041348d ago

this 100%!!!! they could put it on gamespass even if that would be what they have to do.

PrinceAli1348d ago

Why.. so it could be ignored..? It'S GOT to be on GWG FIRST then later be put on Gamepass

gamer78041348d ago

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.

Godmars2901348d ago

What's the difference between GWG and Gamepass? Aren't both on PC?

gamer78041348d ago

@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

RebelWAC1348d ago

Man, this was that type of quality app that made the 360 shine back in the day. This was crazy fun

crazyCoconuts1348d ago

Oh, that's right...Fall Guys isn't on Xbox... Warming the seat, got it....
