The decade is almost over, and what better way to end it than with news about a “revolutionary” game that helped start off the decade? One of the classic Xbox Live games, 1 vs 100, is possibly coming back according to a recent interview with Phil Spencer.

1 vs 100 was a television game show that was implemented into an Xbox Live game on Xbox 360. It had 100 players verse each other in various questions and competitions in order to win points and Xbox arcade games. It was not out long on Xbox Live, but it has still somehow managed to maintain a pretty decent amount of core followers who would like to see it re-imagined.

Xbox President Phil Spencer spoke with Stevivor recently, and commented on their plans. Licensing issues seems to be a hurdle, but there are other ways according to Spencer:

“The problem with 1 vs 100 specifically is it’s an IP that’s owned by a a game show company. But I’ll say Matt [Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios] and I have had a lot of discussions about the idea, whether it’s that IP specifically or just the idea of what it was, is something that we’d love to go do. So we’re out there kind of looking at ideas and talking to teams. Because I think that was one of those ideas — and it’s a cliche, almost — that might’ve been a little ahead of its time.”

Technology has increased multiple times over since 1 vs 100 debuted in 2010, and there are multiple possibilities with how it or something similar could be implemented. I do have a suggestion for Mr. Spencer if I may : Cross platform rewards.

Seriously, think about it. How great would it be and how popular if players could earn an achievement for “50G – Win a match with at least 50 PlayStation players in it?”

Streamers could host matches through Mixer, rewards could be provided to players with the fastest response time, prize levels could increase the more you win consecutively – possibilities are endless. Hopefully we hear more soon
