    Default Microsoft Cancels 1 Vs. 100 for Xbox 360


    Microsoft confirmed today that there will be no third season for their Xbox 360 version of 1 Vs. 100 and that the game won't be returning Kotaku reports.

    "When we started on this journey, we knew we were creating an entirely new genre of entertainment that would be a continually evolving concept," said Dave McCarthy, General Manager, Microsoft Game Studios. "We're very proud of the ‘1 vs 100' team and their accomplishments, and are excited to apply what we've learned to future programming."

    During the beta season more than 114,000 people played the game on Xbox Live simultaneously.

    According to Microsoft the 1 Vs. 100 team is now "focusing their skills and applying the technology used to develop "1 vs 100" to new projects that will be unveiled in the future."

    Let's hope that Microsoft is more supportive of those projects then they apparently were of this one.

    More projects that Australia won't see?

    I suppose this whole '1 vs 100' thing was USA only. I've heard of it when they announced NXE but I haven't seen anything of it here in Europe.

    Are you playing Jazz Jackrabbit 2? If so talk to me whenever you want so that we can 'roast' a few. ;p
    Also add me on Xbox Live if you want to play some GoW, UT3, or Halo3.
    Epic and CliffyB, we want a new Jazz3!!

    It was on the dashboard for the UK last Christmas, I'm not sure about the rest of Europe though.

    The game was quite fun, managed to get the whole family playing it... which is very unusual for a game on the 360.

    I did hope it would come back so I could get the rest of the Achievements in it.

    A massive multiplayer online game based on the TV show 1 VS 100, Wikipedia will explain it a lot better than I can: 1 vs. 100 (Xbox 360) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Only played this one a few times, wasn't really too thrilled with it. Wonder what the development team's next project will be...

    Baaaaah, that's unfair of them! Why throw away such a good game?! I think that's lame of Micro$ofties! I like the game and the tv show!

    @ Slaz: een tegen 100? Ring a bell?

    We are Furrys, with dignity and pride. We are free no one can touch us, no one can force us to deny what we are believing in no one can destroy our feelings, our love.

    All of us are walking through the world with eyes open with purpose in our step. Sometimes we even abandon society only to embrace this Furry thing to be ourselves.
