great quick look, I have the first buzz quiz on PS3 but this one looks really weird with the categories, the first is pretty universal but this one seems pretty skewed. But its a ton of fun with other people and even more so when drinks are involved.

It's not that he just missed it, it's the fact that he didn't even try to answer it.

You know, the Buzz quiz creator forces you to use all-caps, Jeff.  I hope you're proud of yourself, Jeff.  You owe that 2600 quiz a star, Jeff.

Man, I know this is old, but I watched it again and couldn't believe it when they didn't know who Harper Lee was. If I recall correctly, Jeff exclaimed "who cares!?". Wow, lol.

This was a hilarious quick look until the last twenty minutes or so, where every other minute was punctuated by Brad constantly whining for it to be over. His performance by the time of the Video Game quizzes was just constant "Are we done yet?" "I'm bored." "I wanna go home." "This sucks." "I'm tirreddd." "What are we doing?" "I'm not paying attention, I wanna quit." 
 
Really kind of killed the momentum toward the end of this otherwise awesome QL.

I'm guessing part of that's because he'd missed the bus he usually takes home, and wanted to make sure he'd make the next one.

Ryan was kind of overstating the British-ness of the questions, aside from the driving law one. The song they didn't know was by Sam Sparro, and the song was pretty popular in the US. I'm also pretty sure it was in DJ Hero 2.

And the picture WAS Nelly Furtado.

Aside from that, funny quick look.

I know I shouldn't be surprised, but Jeff knows his goddamned trivia. The only category I might have stood a chance in was that Xenosaga one.

After watching all the quicklooks of terrible quiz show games based on real programs, this looked like a halfway decent product in comparison. It certainly does more to take advantage of the medium. Those specialized controllers do sound dumb, however.

Did Dave drop a shazbot in the middle of that...?

Those 2600 questions are really easy now that I've watched all the Game Room quick looks four or five times! I don't think I got a single one of them the first time I watched this... many years ago... Good thing quick looks age excellently.

This Quicklook has so much more subtext after watching the whole Pie/Cake debacle at the GDC 2013 after hours event...

I think it's funny how they think it's oh-so Britain-centric with the American politics and American Football questions.

Seeing a "Staff" flare on this really confused me for a second!
