Prizes?

Does anyone know what exactly the prizes are? A new kind of points only relevant to the game, relevant to the LIVE Primetime thing, or perhaps even Microsoft Points? I doubt it's the latter, but I suppose the commercial route where contestants need to pay an entry fee in MS Points is possible. Also if there are two versions of the game, a "regular" one and an online one through Primetime, what are the differences? Retodon8 (talk) 20:21, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The prizes haven't been announced but I remember reading somewhere that they'd be "small" rewards, not something like a brand new car or $10,000 or anything like that - you are probably thinking in the right direction with being rewarded Microsoft Points. And there's only one version of the game, the online one through Xbox Live Primetime. SeanMooney (talk) 20:58, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

“

1 vs. 100 (Endemol): From the makers of Deal or No Deal, Endemol, the world's largest independent production company, brings the popular television game show 1 vs. 100 to Xbox LIVE Primetime. The exclusive game pits one Xbox LIVE member against 100 others from around the world with a live host and great prizes. The goal of "the One" is to eliminate all opposition by correctly answering questions, hoping opponents will answer incorrectly and be eliminated from the game. And stay tuned for 1 vs. LIVE, where one lucky winner will have a chance to compete against the entire Xbox LIVE community.

The above questions should be answered now... See also http://www.joystiq.com/tag/1-vs-100. –xeno^talk 03:03, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What about a list of the different DLC games they have given out for each game night?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.247.187.249 (talk) 21:12, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalization and Stylism(?)

Looking at the Xbox.com webpages, it looks like there are the following changes should be made, unless it goes against Wikipedia guidelines:

1 vs. 100 -> 1 vs 100
"one" -> The One
"mob -> Mob —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikipedia XP (talk • contribs) 23:09, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good point and good question! I'll look into this. Thanks, –xeno^talk 23:11, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed the first few mentions of it, but it seems a little overboard to use The One and The Mob every single time in the prose. Thoughts? –xeno^talk 23:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I tried to fix the rest of them. I think it is fine using it throughout, using quotes for the first mention in each section. –-Wikipedia XP (talk) 16:45, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Looks good. Thanks =) –xeno^talk 01:03, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Title change

The game refers to itself as "1 vs 100 Live", should the title of this article be changed to reflect that? Lorddragyn (talk) 18:31, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That would only cover the "Live" version of the game, though. 1 vs 100 Live does redirect here though. –xeno^talk 18:38, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Requirements

Can someone provide info about the requirements to play this game? How large is the download, can an Arcade unit play it without a drive or extra MU? Also I read that people on Live Gold trial accounts cannot play (or maybe just not win prizes). Some clarification on these points please. 76.254.14.145 (talk) 07:51, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You might get better results asking these questions at the official 1 vs 100 Xbox forum. White 720 (talk) 17:55, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bugs, connections and no question checking

I feel (and I'm sure thousands of others would) that there should be a 'Criticism' section. The amount of bugs, mistakes, incorrect questions is near endless. Which is why I'm not doing it myself.

I'm sure others who have played the game often will agree, at least with the UK version, but I know some mentioned and some not mentioned have happened in the US, Canada, German etc. versions. 86.177.126.208 (talk) 04:59, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
