#10. The Weakest Link
- Release Data: Activision, 2001
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
As is, The Weakest Link, even for show diehards, is a novelty at best.
Unless you and your friends love long conversations, all of you will be bored playing this game in less than a day.
There’s just too much failed potential and sloppy delivery to make it worthwhile.
#9. Buzz! The Sports Quiz
- Release Data: Relentless Software/SCEE, 2006
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
Where Buzz! The Sports Quiz varies from previous titles is, as you might have expected, the questions are all based around sports.
And while this game is innovative and fun, you’ve got to want to be involved to have to play it and get the most out of it.
#8. Jeopardy!
- Release Data: Artech Studios/Atari SA, 2003
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
For those of you who are not super fanatics of the series, or who kind of like it but prefer watching it on TV, just watch the TV show instead of playing this game.
However, if you like Jeopardy!, and you have a PS2, you might like this game.
#7. Buzz! Junior: RoboJam
- Release Data: Cohort Studios/SCEE, 2008
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
RoboJam won’t hold most players’ attention very long.
Kids will want to play it when friends come over, but will likely lose interest once the mini-games start repeating.
However, kids who liked other Buzz! Junior games will surely like this as well because it’s almost the same game in a different wrapper.
#6. Buzz! The BIG Quiz
- Release Data: Relentless Software/SCEE, 2006
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
The game is presented in the style of a TV quiz show, complete with a cheesy host and a glamorous assistant.
But the big attraction of Buzz! is the way you interact with it, using the flashing red buzzer.
This simple controller will be familiar to anyone who’s ever watched a gameshow, and it will attract gamers and non-gamers alike.
#5. Buzz! Junior: Dino Den
- Release Data: Cohort Studios/SCEE, 2008
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
The Buzz! Junior series has always been great for young gamers and Dino Den is no exception.
You are getting more of the same, but the mini-games are different enough to warrant a good time even if you have played the other games.
In short, Dino Den is simple multiplayer fun that everyone can enjoy.
#4. Buzz! Junior: Jungle Party
- Release Data: Magenta Software/SCEA, 2007
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
Some issues are annoying, but Buzz! Junior: Jungle Party delivers enough fun extras to make it still recommended as a family game.
All in all, it’s a bit of mindless and goofy interactive entertainment that’s both safe for and accessible to most kids.
#3. Buzz! The Music Quiz
- Release Data: Relentless Software/SCEE, 2005
- Genre: Casual » Trivia / Game Show
Buzz! The Music Quiz is half game, half trivia package and excels as what it aims to do.
Sony have done an excellent job and as long as you have a few friends to bring around, Buzz! is worth picking up.
Just don’t expect the best trivia game you’ve ever played if you’re into these things.
