As I was playing tonight, there were actually quite a few questions or answers that came up that involved The Hip. Needless to say I was quite pleasantly surprised to see some content that included them.
Questions like:
- Which year did The Tragically Hip release their first album
1987, 1988, 1989
- Which of the following albums would you find The Hip's "Courage (for Hugh MacLennan)"
Up To Here, Road Apples, Fully Completely
I've never watched the show but from what I understand it's basically the same as the game... For those of you who haven't seen the show or heard of the game, it basically pits ONE person against 100 other people known as "The Mob"... You basically just try and answer questions correctly while hoping that The Mob answers them wrong. (In the video game however, if you don't make it as "The One" or part of "The Mob" you can play as part of the crowd and just compete to win points against everyone else...
Typically you can join in when there is a live host and play as either a member of the crowd, mob or "the one", but when it is not being hosted live they have a version they call "1 vs 100 (Extended Play)" which features all Canadian content. (This is where I witnessed all of The Hip content)
It's a fairly interesting way to pass some time if you've got nothing else to do. I've seen at least one of you fellow hipbaser's playing, i'd assume there is more. There was 11,000+ people playing tonight in the game I was in lol.
