I played the whole time, and never made it into the mob (or the one, for the matter). I think becoming 'The one' has to do with having a high score on a prior game, but who the hell knows. Did the host keep cutting out for everyone else too?

I also noticed the "commericials go here" screen... (The one where it would "wait" at)..

Yeah, I couldn't hear the host about 90% of the time. My friend, on the other hand, heard him the entire time.

This game has to be Natal compatible! It just makes too much sense to not have this functionality!



Tease.

im winning it one time!

you heard it here first, watch my gamertag do it eventually

then i will spend it all on arcade and crack 30g gamerscore . . .



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

I hate game shows. But I had fun with Prime Time. WTF have you done, Microsoft?



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

I played it a bunch of times during the Canadian beta. Good fun, now I can't wait to win actual prizes!

When I didn't know the answer to a question, I waited for the other players to press the good button at the good answer. It's kind of cheating, because I could sometimes get it faster than another player... hehe!



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

imagine your only experience with FPS games was watching other people playing them. Boring huh? Now would you expect to hate playing an FPS game if your only experience with them was hating to watch other people play them?


Tease.

That was...a really good analogy actually, well done Kirk. And I see your point there, being IN the game show, especially with friends, is an absolute blast =P

Thanks, I was wondering if in Jagged's weekly Xbox Live usage statistics we might see this humble little game come in quite high in the rankings. It would be great to see it hit number 1 being free, just so we can see the Xbox 360 market expand a bit.



Tease.

It probably could if it was everyday, but seeing how it is only going for 2 days I don't think it will happen.  Although it should make the top 10. 

I think i read somewhere that halo 3 averages 60k to 70k players per weekday and 100k to 120k on the weekend days.  I was keeping a watch on the population on 1 vs 100 and it didn't ever get above 47k, course people could have been getting on and dropping, but I think most people played the 2 hours.  I bet it was up there with halo around 60k to 70k, but it won't be number 1.

Although, when the primetime channel launches, I can see those games being the most played games on live.  I really think primetime and natal will be a brand new revolution in gaming.

Actually IIRC Halo 3's daily usage can be as high as 1M unique users.
