If you thought show production was easy...

There would be very few people who would actually say "No" to the opportunity of having a TV career and that is one of the reasons why they will never ever be asked this question. Have no fear,

however, since TV Giant has just been launched and it will give you the opportunity to take your dream from the real life into the virtual world and make it come true. TV Giant, released in the UK, is available for �19.99.

However, don't expect a Sim-like experience where you will thrive to enter the spotlight and entertain small audiences - in TV Giant everything is bigger and better than that. This means that you will have to control, manage and develop your own television channel! It won't be such an easy job, if you want to be successful, at least, since you will have four competitors in the city and they do have what it takes to win the audience race.

Only a good micro-management will help you accomplish your mission, and this includes hiring and firing of the best actors, directors and presenters, negotiate the ad campaigns for your TV channel and, the most important part of all: produce your own shows, TV-movies, and series.

The game features 30 different communities, each being a potential target and having it's own array of interests, 10 different types of buildings accessible around the town and four rival channels to battle against. The game's interface is an easy to comprehend one, but the real challenge comes from producing the best shows, TV-series or movies - in order to do that, you will have a program-making kit that is easy to use, too, as well as 20 detailed rooms to set your production as you wish.

Think about this game as "The Movies" for TV, but on a much lower scale and with a huge sim boost. So get ready, a nation of under-50s housewives is yours for the taking (in a manner of speaking)!
