Title: Buzz! Quiz World

From: Sony Computer Entertainment

For: PS3

Seeming as it’s party season, I thought I would review a couple of the best new party games on the market at present. The first of which is the latest instalment in the excellent Buzz! franchise.

Buzz! Quiz World is easily the most polished Buzz! game to date. With over 5000 trivia questions, the chances of repeats appearing are slim. After several hours gameplay I haven’t come across any double-ups as yet. There’s all your old favourite characters as well as several newcomers to choose from, each with their own style. One great addition, and it might seem small but somehow makes a huge difference to the gameplay, is the inclusion of a huge database of preset names. Most regular names are in there along with some generic nicknames and titles. Choose your name and Buzz will address you personally and direct his accolades and sarcasm to you by name.

You can customise quizzes and take on players from around the globe individually or as a team. If playing by yourself though, Buzz! Quiz World doesn’t have a lot to offer, and understandably so, as this is meant to be enjoyed with others.
