    When Buzz Quiz TV hit PC Labs last year, we spent many an hour testing our pop culture knowledge, so we were eager to try out this year's follow-up: Buzz Quiz World. The trivia game, available exclusively for the PlayStation, serves up questions on everything from dog breeds and celebrities to 80s TV shows and computing. The standard game consists of six rounds of short games—answer questions before a bomb explodes, answer correctly to avoid being pied in the face, or answer faster than your opponents and steal their points. Don't like a particular round? Customize your own game. Quiz World adds a few new features, like a library of names within the game (they had Chloe!), though it's slightly disconcerting when the host yells out your actual name.

    Buzz Quiz World is comprehensive and fast-paced. The only downsides, really, are the fact that it's limited to the PlayStation, and that you also have to also purchase the wireless buzzers.
