User Rating: 9 | The Movies PC
The long anticipated and hyped game, The Movies, has finally premiered. And this is an instant blockbuster. Movies gives you tons of tools to make all kinds of movies yourself. Or if you just want to focus on running the studio you can leave the writing and acting up to your staff. The game starts in the silent film era and goes all the way to modern movie making. There are dozens of sets, actions, props, etc. to craft whatever you can imagine. You also have the ability to tweak the movie in subtle ways. Not only do you need to crank out box office gold but you must keep you stars happy. You can hire stars from rival studios or take a nobody and mold them into the toast of the town. Stars can be made over to just about any specification, just make sure they approve. Information is easily accessible and help pop-ups are as plentiful as you want. Obviously there are some limitations to movie creation with some props/sets used over and over. Despite these limitations this a great game and good for anyone who wants to try their hands at machinima.
