Sony Computer Entertainment Europe is once again ramping-up their We Are PlayStation Campaign, with a chance to win 1,000 euros and an appearance in a future PlayStation advertising campaigns, if you can prove just how much "PlayStation Spirit" you have.
Buzz! Games had a time when they took over the gaming world. They were amongst the most popular PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. It only makes sense for them to return on the PS5.
Omg this! My family play Knowledge is Power to fill the void as we wait for a new generation of Buzz.
Awesome fun at Christmas with the family or with your mates when the drinks are flowing.
Is it sad I never even heard of this or just don’t remember it at all ? Not the type of game I would play generally so I know nothing about it . I would check it out if it’s fun with the fam . I have owned every PS ever made including the Go that I gave to my son . Just don’t remember this
I vaguely remember it myself.
Not sure why your honesty was downvoted I threw u an upvote
There was a f2p version on the PS3 store (might still be there) and a version of it in PS Home. That’s my only experience with it but it seemed like a party/trivia game. Not sure what the full titles were like
I saw it advertised everywhere but never played it, didn't seem like my type of game.
Yes buzz was the greatest party game back in the day.
And in today's world everyone has a potential buzzer in their pocket with the app integration similar to knowledge is power and no more tangled cables.
I still have the original buzz controllers.... AND the revised wireless ones!
I know...but we really loved it back in the day.. lol
I would love another buzz game. it was family friendly, funny, entertaining, and easy to learn/play so supper accessible.
Popular when? It was not popular back then at all except outside the stares for some reason. It was gimmicky as f when everyone thought they were so clever making game-show like games. but with puppet people… yuck.
You wanna gameshow game? Smash TV. Done. Move on.
I'd consider sales of over 10 million pretty popular. I know a few people who had (and still have them) fun with a few drinks.
Love playing it with a few drinks, can't beat it, oh and singstar of course 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah the world is much bigger than the states in Europe, ociana it was very popular with all sorts of people's from non gamers to gamers.
Smash tv never heard of it.
IGN India says: “ Interior Night’s Charu Desodt on bringing Singstar to life on the PS2, winning a BAFTA, and upcoming Xbox Series X|S and PC game, As Dusk Falls.”
This may come as a bit of a shock to Americans, since it never really took hold in the US, but Singstar was one of the most important series ever released on a Sony console. And in January 2020, after 15 years of PlayStation karaoke, it’s finally going to be shuffled off the stage.
This game could live on as a VR game. Karaoke as different created characters or franchise characters from other games. Sing as Kratos or Nathan Drake or Parappa the Rapper, etc and post to social media if you're into that internet thing. Would be funny. And interesting if you had individuals who could really sing. Alloy becomes a virtual singing idol.
Sounds crazy but it's creative for VR. And you could use Dreams to create your backgrounds and music videos. I don't really sing but don't think they should give up on Singstar.
I think your last point might be a big one. Who needs SingStar when Dreams is coming out?
So if you invested potentially hundreds of dollars in the game with DLC songs, will all of it continue to work or are you just SOL now?
It'll still work. You just won't have the online features. The game can be played locally either singing together, or competing against one another, and is generally considered a pretty good party game....if you go to parties where karaoke is a thing at least. It basically doubles as a karaoke machine.
I'm not into karaoke, and you'll just have to trust me that anyone would be happy that I don't try to sing publicly, or even privately among friends. But, I've been to parties where people are having fun with it, and it's about as hit or miss as going to a karaoke bar....without the one girl who wants to sing Shania twain songs, yet can't carry a tune, or hit a high note without your pet cat committing ritual suicide.....most of the time anyways.
I loved SingStar but it hasn't been supported most of this gen. It had a half-hearted revival with a couple of discs but very little of the PS3 library transitioned across. I will probably keep my PS3 just for SingStar when PS5 comes out.
SingStar was huge in the US. Where did the idea that it wasn't popular in the US come from? It wasn't a hardcore game, so the hardcore gaming community never really noticed it much, but the game was a huge money maker for Sony.
I am Playstation...
I wish... wtf, I'm going back to play KZ2...
XFD, that's the dumbest motto I've ever heard.
"Sony Computer Entertainment Europe is once again ramping-up their We Are PlayStation Campaign" what ever happend to the KZ2 ads because I havent seen any adverts for PS3 apart from RE5 and LBP.
