I was skiming through my newspaper and found this little article about upcoming video games that were playable demos at the E3 convention. There were little blurbs for KillZone, Gears of War, Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Agaju: The Sacred Path. The one that stuck out for me (since I'm a movie buff) was this one...
"The Movies" for the PC: Think of it as "The Sims" for movie directors, coming this fall. Players control a studio, hire stars, write scripts and direct films. If your star gets too fat, steady exercise or a quick trip to the plastic surgeon will do the trick. Overwork a director and watch him try to commit suicide. Would you rather get him into therapy or alert the media so they can be there when he jumps and boost the buzz around your new flick? Later on, players can watch the finished movies and submit them to online judges.
Sounds cool to me. I've never played the Sims but it looked fun. I'm definatly going to have to check this one out.

I've been hearing of it for over a year now. It seems to be a great game, but I think I would wait a bit to let me decide if I like it.

Oh, man. I remember hearing about this quite a while ago. I figured it got canceled or something. Good to hear it's still coming out. I'll keep an eye on it. :)

This does indeed sound like an interesting concept.
Not sure about the actual movie bit though.

November 8th. I just placed a preorder at Amazon. I rarely would be willing to pay $60 for a video game, usually I'd wait for the price to drop, but I've been waiting for a game like this for a while now, so I went for it.

Wow, $60? Really! I think that's how much I paid for Half Life 2..
I really hope it's worth it, sir.:)

False alarm. I canceled just in case Amazon's price went down.

Still too much. I need a better job. Plus I have other things to spend my money on, like finishing up my MST collection and that new Matrix game that's coming out.

And I was more or less telling you I still don't have the money. :p
I don't go to Target anyway. It's in Boise, and by the time I drove there, I would have already spent over $70 for it including gas money.
