The Movies Baby; everything it claims and more.

User Rating: 9.3 | The Movies PC
When I first played "The Movies" I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed; All the tutorials and different buildings made it almost seem like it would be a chore. After about 10 minutes I moved passed the tycoon part and started up the advanced script maker; stupidly I skipped the tutorials and found my self lost. So I quit playing that in about thirty minutes, I was very dissappointed; I thought the game was a distaster.

So the next morning I thought I'd give it another go, this time it went ALOT better, I played around with the advanced script maker some more and started to get how to use it; and then I decided to watch all the script maker movies and everything became easier and much clearer. That was just the beginning, after making my first movie the tycoon portion of the game started to get fun, it was fun to know that my studio was in competition and the control I had over people and there salaries is great!

Where the fun ever got more fun for me? Voice Acting! Its amazingly fun, and the outcome you get is great, the characters lips will sync accordingly.

Gameplay:
The camera slides nicely, every button pressed goes accordingly with a response, the only problem Ive had was in the script maker; sometimes when assigning an actor to a role by dragging and dropping, the actor will be assigned to the wrong role or it wont get assigned at all.

Graphics:
Not next gen by any means, but for the current gen there not bad. Nice and clean, some pretty shadows here and there.

Sound:
Well, although the sound is not at top notch quality, there are many sounds to choose from to add into your movie, not only sounds but music clips and such; Don't forget you can do voice acting for your movies!

Valure:
The only way I see this game getting "old" would be either a sequel or the graphics getting just way too ugly. This game has alot of value, making movie after movie. Not to forget "The Movies" online community where you can upload you movies onto there website for the whole world to watch! Even more fun, along with your movies you get "credits" these will be used to buy "props" for your game; and I don't doubt there will be a few expansion packs.

Conclusion:
"The Movies" is awesome and very addictive. I hope they make expansions; and a great idea would be to make a "set maker" in which you will be able to make your very own sets.
