It was Sunday night and I was knee deep in some Battlefield Bad Company when I heard monkey shines overhead. . . I’ve written a bit about Buzz RoboJam and the Buzz quiz show games in this space before, and my family still loves them. It’s a PS2 series that uses its own controllers.

They also sent us Jungle Party and we… that is to say the GamerDad family… got to it last night.

It’s gonna drive this GamerDad bananas. Especially if he misses out on the fun again.

I went upstairs and
