Buzz Quiz World is a fun and entertaining quiz game that fans of the genre should love, as it offers up a good amount of options for solo or multiple players in a pleasant package, though its not without its flaws. The game looks and sounds nice and is easy enough to play that anyone should be able to jump right in within seconds without an issue. There are plenty of multiplayer modes, both online and off, to allow you to play with friends or strangers when you're looking for some competition, and there are an acceptable amount of single player modes available to keep the game interesting for a while, and the game is charming enough to make you come back to it for a little while on top of that. However, the game is lacking some polish, like the inability to change your name or the lack of animated character avatars, that make the game feel less interesting than its console counterparts. Further, thanks to some odd issues like the inability to download MyBUZZ! quizzes to the console for play anytime, the inability to disable audio and video quizzes when they would be undesirable, and the fact that video questions repeat frequently enough to be noticeable before the repeated questions might be, the game simply doesn't feel polished enough to be a must-have for anyone but the quiz show fan. Buzz Quiz World is a fun game for people who love quiz shows, and it offers some solid fun alone or with friends, but it doesn't make a compelling argument to own it over the console versions, and it's simply not polished enough for anyone but a fan of the genre to give it a second look.
There's only one thing in the world that's more rewarding than killing the witch in Left 4 Dead 2, and that thing would be killing the witch AFTER startling her right next to one of your friends after swearing you'd keep your gun holstered. Sure video games were made for people to have fun and whatever, but let's face the honest truth, there's nothing more satisfying than listening to your friends scream "I TRUSTED YOU!" in agony. So to make sure you'll be hearing more of that, or maybe even yelling it out yourself, here's a list of seven games that are bound to abolish your friendships with even your closest friends.
If games can destroy your friendship, chances are, you werent really friends

"The PlayStation 3 has its own particular flavor of multiplayer games. First-party experiences tend to focus on family-friendly entertainment, while downloadables on the platform like to experiment with various concepts. Sometimes a developer even takes advantage of the system’s 7-controller support! (Just not that often.) Here’s the cream of the crop on the system, including some that should work for any group."
Interesting list... stays away from obvious shooters and the like. SingStar and Fat Princess are great multiplayer games too.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Kill-Zone 2, Kill-Zone 3, Gran Turismo 5, Little Big Planet, Little Big Planet 2, Journey, Portal 2, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Battlefield 3, Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
Planning to have friends over and play some games? Good for you. There are lots of great options, as readers of this column know, and you can jump in wherever you’d like.
You know, until that fifth person walks in the door.
It’s a thing that can cause a train wreck in the head of any gracious gaming host. All those games you planned to play? Either you’ll have an awkward person just sitting around and watching, or you’ll have to split up, which isn’t the best option. But while your options may be limited, they’re not gone: there are some great games that support five or more players.
