Hasta la Bye Bye

Well, that just sucks. After months of no news, the bad news came out today: 1 vs 100, Microsoft’s foray in to massive multiplayer Xbox Live trivia, is no more. No more live shows, no more canned “extended play” shows, no more anything. It’s hard to understand the decision, since Microsoft touted that over 100,000 were online playing the game simultaneously during the beta. Perhaps it was too expensive to maintain? Too difficult to produce? We’ll probably  never know. But I know that I’ll never forget my experience in the mob, and the great times and competition in the game.
