Kombo

While the cumulative experience derived from the campaign may be disappointing, the underlying gameplay is still fun and the set pieces are still exciting, at least the first time you play through them.

IGN

Buzz! Quiz World is outstanding. Yes, I could’ve done with more names, more variation on round introductions, and the ability to log-in different PSN profiles, but none of that can overshadow the fact that Relentless Software listened to what critics and fans had to say about the last game and fixed the issues.

Despite its slow pacing and simplicity, Buzz! Quiz World is a terrific sequel and makes for an ideal purchase for trivia aficionados.

The Onion (A.V. Club)

In spite of its high-definition, high-decibel wackiness, Buzz! does manage to keep its simple play front and center. The developers understand the implicit marriage of a party game: They supply the game, and the players provide the party.

The best Buzz! game to date offers everything its predecessors do (and more besides) but doesn't break any new ground.

With Buzz! Quiz World however, the future is pretty much set. It now fits nicely, and willingly, in with the other continual release titles. You know the ones. The same music based games with another new song list, or the same sports game with another team roster.

Giant Bomb

While the edges of the action can get a little rough, especially after repeated use, the core of the game offers a lot of solid trivia and a controller that anyone--even a person who has never played a video game before--can easily understand. That makes it a good dose of group fun.

Roger W gave it an8:
Vast improvement over Quiz TV. However does not seem to flow at the same quick pace as Quiz TV. Noticable between rounds during leader tally-up & cant skip sequences. Also still now way to return to main menu mid-game, must fully restart game.
