For those who might have yet to own a PS2, PS3 or PS Portable, Buzz! was a series of quiz games initiated by Sleepydog Ltd, developed by Restless Software, and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The game was a TV quiz show-type game where players answered trivia questions while competing in Buzz!, a fictional game show hosted by the titular game show host, Buzz (voiced by Jason Donovan in the English versions of the games). The game was created with multiplayer party gaming in mind, like most trivia games. a b c d e f g h i Ramsay, Radolph (21 October 2010). "Buzz: The Music Quiz review". CNET . Retrieved 9 August 2020.

My point is," he added - "and I'm not asking people, I'm not sad that people won't do it" - "when we brought out Buzz on PS2 there was a PS2 Buzz bundle, like you get a Gran Turismo bundle.

Nevertheless, Relentless Software broke ground with Buzz! on PS3, claiming "a number of firsts". "It's extraordinary what we did," boasted Eades. "We had the first playable user-generated content before LittleBigPlanet; we had the first Trophies ever on a PlayStation game; and we also had the first Facebook connect in a PlayStation game - on any console in fact. a b c d e f g Ortiz, Nacho (14 April 2012).

Relentless released 12 presumably Sony-commissioned Buzz! games for PS3 - including the Junior titles. That's hardly destitution. "We did well on PS2," admitted Eades. "We also did well on PS3, frankly." But why? What happened? Buzz! and SingStar were supposed to prove that Sony and PS3 could entice an audience Microsoft and Xbox 360 could not.The market changed. We haven't changed; we've always made the kind of games that we're going to continue making - that's for sure. The people we make games for don't own PS3s that much. The future for Relentless Software currently lies on iPhone with Quiz Climber, although Eades openly declared his love for Kinect to Eurogamer recently. He believes PS3 and Xbox 360 core audiences are at "saturation point", but feels Kinect can expand numbers (like Buzz! did) beyond that.
