GamerDad Reviews: Buzz! Master Quiz

GamerDad writes: "It is easy to pinpoint what is wrong with this game: the premise. It starts with the controls: not that the face buttons don't work adequately, but that they aren't the party-centric controller. Next is the perspective: this is the sort of game that needs to be played 'in genre', in other words looking at a TV as it is a quiz show. I tried it using my PSP component cable and confirmed - seeing it on a big screen is an entirely different experience than being hunched over the PSP. Finally, there is the context: this is a party game meant to be played with a few friends sitting on a couch together having a load of laughs in front of a big screen TV. It just fails to translate in a fundamental way to a little screen in isolation - even in multiplayer mode you are not looking at each other, you're watching the screen. It just doesn't work well."
