PSPs will be Buzzing this Spring

Buzz has gone to the movies and a junior jungle party, and now the popular quiz game will be coming to the PlayStation Portable as well.

The new game, Buzz! for PSP, will have eight question categories for quiz fiends: Music, TV, Science, Celebrities, Nature, Sport, Movies, and General Knowledge. There will be 5,000 questions in total, along with more than 1,000 pictures and videos.

Buzz! for PSP will have a single-player mode, along with three different multiplayer modes. The first, pass around, uses just one PSP, which gets passed around the group so everyone gets a chance to answer questions. The second, game sharing, allows up to four people to use one copy of the game and four PSPs to play, each buzzing in from their own machine. The final mode, quiz host, sees one player from a group of up to six running the whole game and controlling the number of points awarded for correct answers.

Single-player mode will have 15 different challenges in which players can earn medals and trophies for things like answering multiple questions in a row correctly or having a lighting-quick reaction time.

There will be six new round types for the PSP, too, including Quickfire Challenge, Picture This, and Virus Challenge.

Buzz! for PSP will be coming to Europe, exclusively for the PSP, sometime this spring.
