Look at the charts today, inundated with manufactured bands. The music business is in need of some fresh talent. Well here's your opportunity to show the Nasty Nigels of the World how it's really done!
As a pop star manager you get to choose your band members and manage them on a day-to-day basis. Treat them well, plan their time and they will be happy and give their best performance. Mismanage them, don't pay them enough and they could walk.
This is not just a game about management, you get to create great music tracks and watch your band perform live on stage. The success of the band all depends on you, are you the person to make the next super band that will take the World by storm?
The fact that it 'has' to be a pop group. It would've been nice to be able to choose what style of music your group performed. The music editor is dire, only allowing a small selection of samples, resulting in most of your songs sounding the same. The inputting of these samples is also tediously slow, resulting in me giving up most of the time and just buying one of the premade songs. When it comes to releasing your singles/albums, the selection of album covers is truly shocking, there isn't even an option to design your own.
Creating a successful band is nigh on impossible, as your band will always be bad, no matter how much effort you put in, your talentless wonders will always dance like they've got a plank of wood stuck down each trouser leg, attracting something like 4 people to each concert.
As well as making your songs, you get to watch your band perform your song. There's really only one real problem with this game and thats after a while it will seem todrag on a bit, it'll get very repetative.
After you have your continent to your advantage the world will be drugged by your songs and you'll finally be a Popstar***
