After an afternoon of playing, you start to see the same questions, maybe reworded to make them seem newer. This game is fun but could use more questions.
The individual mode is great because it has a lot of challenges in order to scale form level to level. I liked Buzz Master very much, as it has a lot of questions, but not too much clips.The multiplayer is excellent as 6 people can play together, questions are incredible, in spite of being primarly for USA people.
Tasks like placing events in a chronological time line hardly feel like fun. I only played the solo quiz mode but didn't find it very much fun or very challenging. And after you've done a few challenges like this you are likely to put Buzz away and never play it again. Yes, its Buzz on the PSP. But if you ask me, it is a poor imitation of the real deal from the console and is disappointing.
You can go back and try to get a better score but other then that the game is very short unless you plan on using it in group mode. You get bronze silver or gold in each of the levels but it only takes a bronze to move to the next level. I have to say I am disappointed for $20. I bought this game because I like anything to do with trivia. Well, the 15 levels took about 45 minutes to defeat.
For example, in some TV, music, or movie questions, a video clip will play for ten or fifteen seconds before you get the question. Finally, the price is just $20. I had Buzz for PS2, but I like this version better.
There are a number of interesting multiplayer options, including ad hoc, pass along, and a mode where one player acts as quiz master, reading questions and keeping score. This game brings a lot of fun for the money. There are supposed to be more than 3,000 questions, and by creating a profile on the memory card, the game keeps track of the questions you have already answered, to keep things fresh as long as possible.
This new version of the popular Buzz Master Quiz game for the PSP is an excellent addition to the portable's library. And there are a number of different quiz types to keep things interesting, including a "Virus" mode where you can't answer the question until you can make out a pixillated photo which gradually adds resolution -- plus you lose points if you don't answer correctly in time. Highly recommended.
Though the Buzz graphics are nothing to write home about, the a/v interface is very slick in this portable version. The standard PSP buttons work fine for answering questions.
