It's a really intriguing idea, but there's just one flaw: No Bob Saget. The Avatar hosting the game doesn't even look like Bob Saget. Still, it's hard to argue with winning fabulous prizes right from your couch, possibly in your underwear. Let's just hope the Vision camera isn't supported.

If you watch close at 1:12 you can see that one of the prizes is an 800 point arcade game.
I wonder how the pricing of this will work.

Even with a timer, what's there to prevent the one person from being me and my buddies?

This is actually pretty exciting. Not sure how it's gonna work when a guy randomly starts cursing uncontrollably when he gets to speak, though...
Still, this is awesome.

Are you joking or are you serious? The video isn't from a TV show.

I'm stoked for this.
How do you sign up to be on the show? Any info on that yet?

So i don't understand Primetime, do you have to pay to play? Is it a download thing like an XBLA game? Or is it like, streaming?

Yeah, I live half the year in the states and half in Canada and I get so irritated when my console's functionality decreases depending on WHERE I PLUG IT IN. Whats up with that, MS?
I don't get what Primetime is either. It seems like it is simultaneously an app like Netflix, an XBLA game, some streaming service and a new channel on the dashboard.

If you look at the XBL video when you log in, Canadian Beta begins on May 8th.
So that's a yes for Canada :)
Whether it's going to actually be worth anything IN Canada, is another story.
As much as I like the idea, this (like actually voting for office over the internet) just won't work.
It'll be fun for a bit, people will find ways to cheat or no one will actually do anything and it'll just flitter away.

the video posted here and the one on the Canadian dashboard are different. Where the one above says coming Spring 2009 on the Canadian version it says "Canadian Beta Begins May 8th? Canadian only Beta SWEEEEEEEEET :D :D :D :D :D

Wrong, maybe - but so, so right.
Since I started playing the original SF back when it just came onto the SNES, I could never get the image of Bob Saget from my mind when playing him.
Good memories.
Except Saget is a ginormous douche now, so there is SOME difference.
And he doesn't have an eye patch. That too.

1v100 has been on the agenda for a long time so nothing about this is exactly news for anyone. Except the Canadian beta that is. Go Canada!
1v100 was actually supposed to be released with the NXE but it was delayed until spring 2009 for development reasons.
I'm really looking forward to it, don't see how they'll fund the prizes though...entrance fees would be a game-killer.
