European releases start this week Online social quiz 1 vs 100, Microsoft's latest casual-bating hope for Xbox Live, has been dated for release in Europe. Service will commence in the UK on the 10th of July, and this will be followed by releases in Germany and France on the 12th. Beta tests for the new real-time quiz are apparently underway, and Microsoft have already trialed a free-access weekend in the States in order to drum up interest around this online multiplayer quiz. Microsoft are offering some fairly hefty real prizes for those competing in this light-hearted online game show (anyone for a car?), and they clearly hope to enrapture a few of those illusive non-traditional gamers with this release. We'll bring you more on 1 vs 100 as we get it.
