Pocket Gamer writes: "The traditional TV quiz show is vacuous yet oddly compelling entertainment. On paper the entire concept seems absurd; it's almost incomprehensible that anyone with even the tiniest shred of intelligence would be prepared to sit through half and hour of other people failing to answer ridiculously easy questions while a smarmy host cracks poorly scripted jokes at their expense – and all for the ultimate prize of a tacky set of cheap steak knives.
However, you only have to flick on your goggle box to see that quiz shows are massive ratings winners and this rather worrying truth clearly hasn't been lost on Sony. The company's Buzz! series – available on the PS2 and PS3 consoles – has gone down a treat, largely thanks to the riotous gaming sessions that erupt when four (or more) like-minded people huddle around the TV, buzzer peripherals at the ready in their sweaty palms."
WorthPlaying contacted SCEA to find out if it planned to match the PSPgo Rewards program announced by SCEE this morning and was told that Sony had no plans at this time to match the European offer.
"There hasn't been any announcement yet that there will be an equivalent rewards program for North America..."

This is sad .. the Euros are getting stuff, and here in the US they havent even figured out the UMD issue yet either.
Don't they realize this thing is coming out like SOON
There are over 1.7 million user generated questions in the game Buzz.
I made 200 useless questions, myself. Just 25 sets of 8 questions (junk) for the silver trophy (and it was my final needed to platinum Buzzz). I imagine a HUGE number of the questions are similarly worthless.
The highly anticipated BUZZ! Home space has been removed from PlayStation Home. The explanantion is below.
and if you ask me i'd say this was a smart move from sony. In my opinion, this space was never finished and ready yet it was launched just to shut users for a while with complains.
Well sony, not all of us are sputid, you'd be surprised with how many get your moves even before you make one!

Update: We experienced a minor glitch this morning with the Buzz space in PlayStation. We know what the issue is and we are working to resolve it as soon as possible. Please check back with the blog for an update on when it will go live.
