1 vs. 100 is coming out of retirement on November 19 photo

It's easy to love 1 vs. 100. A chance to goof off with friends, prove yourself to be an all-out trivia god, and possibly win something nice if you're lucky enough to become The One or land in The Mob. Plus, it's one-hundred percent free.

The 14-week-long Season 2 is starting up soon -- November 19 at 5:00 PST, to be precise. Players will be put into The Mob or become The One based on total scores across the season, week, and current round; I always thought they just picked the people who were the most likely to not win prizes.

The new changes to The One, along with the themed 1 vs. 100 Extended Play shows -- Finish the Lyrics, 80s, and Vampires (it was bound to happen) -- should provide fun gaming on the cheap. Who else is pumped to play?

1v100 is great at making me feel like a genius one day, and complete idiot the next. My enjoyment depends on whichever it happens to be.

I lost interest towards the end of the initial run, but I'll definitely be there to give "season 2" a go. How long into the season my interest will remain, I'm not sure.

But yeah, it's a fun, free trivia game.

Woo! Can't wait. I love trivia stuff. Since the other console options never update, becoming more about wether or not you remember what the answer was last time instead of what you actually know, 1 vs 100 is one of the best. Just hope I can manage to be the One or at LEAST in the mob this season.

I never got around to trying it the first time, but I do love me some trivia.

It's good quality time with my wife. This is the only thing she'll do with the 360 besides Rock Band. Otherwise her nose is always in The Sims on her laptop.

I have several friends who have won this only to be screwed over by stupid MD laws prohibiting them to win ANYTHING.

I dunno who to tell to "Fuck off." The government or Microsoft.

So they fixed the game from the last batch of hackers. I wonder if they will take it away again with the next batch of hackers. When they fix that, will it be season 3?

So it kicks off again the same week Left 4 Dead 2 comes out? Yeah I don't see that being a massive season premiere.

I remember playing it, with my wife, while it was in beta the first few weeks.. We were really excited to play it for prizes once it went Live, sadly we just never got around to playing it ever again once it went live. Think we played it too much and just got burnt out on it. Maybe we'll have a go at Season 2.

I never got to be 'The One', so hopefully I'll have the chance when the European version begins.
