( If you've listened to the radio in the last fifty years and you know how to buzz, then you're all set to be the next contestant on Buzz! The Music Quiz.
Buzz brings the music game-show to your living room, testing your music trivia and buzzer skills. Included with the game are a set of four bespoke buzzers which lets four people play right away, and provides an interface that even a techno-zero would understand.
'Buzz' is your host, complete with an all-knowing smile, a catchphrase, a glamorous assistant called 'Rose' and his very own theme tune. You can select a playable contestant to suit your personal music taste, choose from 16 different characters including a pop diva, a rocker, a punk, an Elvis and a disco dude.
There are over 1,000 music clips - all international chart-toppers from the 1950s through to 2005 - and over 5,000 questions to test your knowledge, either by playing solo in a fast paced single-player mode or with your friends in the multiplayer game. You can choose to play in short bursts, or over a longer period if you want to. All wins and losses can be saved to memory cards if you need to refer to them at a later date!

The original Buzz! - I only caught on after The Big Quiz but even then it was quite unknown. This one is my favourite still. I love music and I love beating everyone I play.
Fastest finger first

This is a brilliant idea. A quiz show in your home. Me, my family and friends have had so much fun with this game. In this version you do have to know something about music. In single player the aim is to score as high as possible based on the time you have, then try and beat it. But the real fun comes with multiplayer. There are several rounds to build your score through being the fastest finger and getting the questions right, but there also rounds where you can lose major points you've earned. For example, one game has you answering questions to pass a bomb along. Whoever gets stuck with the bomb loses points. Another round allows you to steal another players points, and some rounds punish wrong answers with point deductions.
The characters are well designed and this all adds up to a hugely enjoyable multiplayer game with a decent single player effort.
I Love This Game!

My son bought me this for Christmas, and I have to say, it was a great present. All the family & friends have played it & had great fun. It has a wide range of music and is therefore suitable for all age groups.
We have played numerous games & so far have only had one question repeated.
I definitely recommend you buy it now!
