When it comes to family based entertainment few games can rival the success of the BUZZ! quiz series on PlayStation2. With no less than seven previous releases under its belt, BUZZ! caters expertly for all ages; even the younger members of the family can get involved with the specially developed BUZZ! Junior range. So how will a game so revered for its ability to pull families together fare on PlayStation Portable. With its imminent release this Friday, July 25th, 2008, it remains to be seen whether the introduction of such a popular social game on said console will be to the detriment of its pulling power. Well, it seems that SONY and Relentless Software have considered this predicament and the result, though unlikely to rival the success of the original, deals with its pitfalls admirably. The social aspect of the game is not lost as it boasts both Single-Player and three Multi-Player Modes. Firstly, bringing a tactical edge to the game...
Buzz! Games had a time when they took over the gaming world. They were amongst the most popular PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. It only makes sense for them to return on the PS5.
Omg this! My family play Knowledge is Power to fill the void as we wait for a new generation of Buzz.
Awesome fun at Christmas with the family or with your mates when the drinks are flowing.
Is it sad I never even heard of this or just don’t remember it at all ? Not the type of game I would play generally so I know nothing about it . I would check it out if it’s fun with the fam . I have owned every PS ever made including the Go that I gave to my son . Just don’t remember this
Yes buzz was the greatest party game back in the day.
And in today's world everyone has a potential buzzer in their pocket with the app integration similar to knowledge is power and no more tangled cables.
I would love another buzz game. it was family friendly, funny, entertaining, and easy to learn/play so supper accessible.
Popular when? It was not popular back then at all except outside the stares for some reason. It was gimmicky as f when everyone thought they were so clever making game-show like games. but with puppet people… yuck.
You wanna gameshow game? Smash TV. Done. Move on.
Anthony Daly looks at whether a new Buzz game is needed?
OPM: While the PS4 is all about shiny new technology and fresh ideas there’s a load of PS3 stuff we’re not ready to say goodbye to just yet. From Home to Singstar and more here’s some of Sony’s current gen potential we want carried over to the future.
I would really like to see Home make a return, and for it to live up to it's full potential. It's such a brilliant idea.
Give me another Sing Star too. I have almost every game in the series.
