The ultimate treat for quiz fans

Look out for a special Buzz!: Quiz TV collector's edition box containing Wireless buzzers and Special Edition game for PLAYSTATION 3.

Buzz!: Quiz TV Special Edition is the perfect gift for quiz fans and their families this Christmas. This boxed collector’s edition of the brilliant interactive game show features 1,000 extra questions, including a bonus 500-question Videogames Quiz and a quiz on African wildlife, set by the experts at National Geographic and packed with their world famous photos and video clips.

The Special Edition disc includes loads of game extras and features previously only available via PlayStation Network (PSN), such as extra characters and ten cheeky new buzzer noises, as well as in-game trophies to reward top quizzers plus the new Quickstart mode, which cuts out set-up time and gets you straight to the action.

Buzz!: Quiz TV Special Edition also offers PLAYSTATION Eye compatibility, which means that the hilarious Buzz! faces contestants pull at moments of tension and celebration can be broadcast in-game or shared with the world. This great new version of the top-selling Buzz!: Quiz TV comes in a gold-embossed collector’s box, to house your Wireless buzzers and games collection in style, and will hit stores in early November.

Buzz!: Quiz TV, first launched in July 2008, is the hugely successful PS3 title that turns your living room into a glitzy, glamorous and hilarious gameshow. It comes with over 5,000 questions straight from the Blu-ray Disc (and more than 6,000 questions in the Special Edition), letting you quiz across five category channels: Music, Movies and TV, Sports, Knowledge and Lifestyle. The game also comes with four all-new Wireless buzzers that free Buzz! from cables, streamline the quiz experience and keep your living room free of clutter.

Thousands of additional questions are available to download from the game’s creators via PlayStation Network – there are quizzes on everything from national culture to sci-fi movies and comedy movies. On top of this, quiz fans can create their own personalized quizzes, play them in-game and share them with players across the world via the PC-accessible MyBuzz site at MyBuzzQuiz.com. Finally, players can team up with friends and family and take on groups of like-minded players across the planet, taking part in Sofa vs. Sofa multiplayer gaming after logging on to PlayStation Network. Buzz!: Quiz TV will determine not only the smartest on your own sofa, but also pinpoint the most knowledgeable living rooms in the world.

Since its launch in July, the game has proved hugely popular, with millions of quizzes written by users and uploaded to MyBuzzQuiz.com.
