TV Trash TV Superstars is the new title from Sony that enriches the dusty library of games designed for PlayStation Move. Once again we are faced with a collection of minigames, but structured in a sort of "Fame", which sees the player to fight for the front pages of newspapers. The basic idea is not bad and gives cohesion to what would otherwise be just another jumble of the second game, but not enough to mask a general lack of inventiveness, especially the inability to keep glued to the screen after you have exhausted all challenges.
Unlike what the title can imagine, it was not called to take part in a movie or a TV show with a cutout of own image (as they were in bankruptcy're in the Movies Microsoft). It should instead pass a series of challenges based on the item or the movement of the PlayStation controller Move reproducing what you see on the screen. The most interesting section is without a doubt, Big Beat Kitchen, Cooking Mama, where a sort of mix the ingredients to cook four dishes. Fast and not so simple, is different from other mini-games for a minimum of freedom in the measurement of the ingredients and use the controller. From time to time we will be called also to repeat to the beat of rap phrases spoken by the cook (strictly black and fat) while moving the controller.
Flockstar is instead a sort of turns the fashion in which he plays a model that has paraded on runways around the world 4. Need to fake it by reference to the dummy, dressed in theme and then let him perform the movements and basic moves worthy of Zoolander. Too bad the movement detection is not just the high and often you are out of time is successful despite all the moves. Let's Get Physical includes the most active among all mini-games where you have to move the check as quickly as possible, for example, to stay balanced on one wheel, or catapult the person giving it to target the locations shown. In the Reloaded version, Let's Get Physical puts guns in the hands of the player to ink with which to hit the shapes of the opponents.
DIY Raw is the longest and most boring event, which puts a row in a series of minigames based on the rebuilding of a house according to the requests of the owners: painting walls, distribute furniture and so on. Finally, the interesting event Staa, where in the hands of an advertising agent must perform certain moves to turn one of the eight spots available. At the end you can also recite the slogan, which will be played from time to time after the events of the game.
After playing about half of the events in just over an hour, we realize that the desire to return the same to improve the score is really low. The repetitiveness of the mini-games associated with the general lack of inventiveness is also accompanied by the terrible burden that plague the game: in fact, skipping the introductions and explanations several mini-games last as long as the boots themselves. This is ditching the overall pace and hence becomes unsuitable for a gaming session with friends, where the interaction should have the better of dead time. TV Superstars is appreciated only for construction and some nice idea, but the ability to apply its recovery from the PlayStation Eye and face to record the anthem of victory are not enough to save a title that does not go beyond mediocrity.

Pros: nice idea
Replay Value: low. The various mini-games are too little incentive
Cons: long load ; boring mini-games, movement detection incomplete
In Summary: the idea behind TV Superstars is nice, but everything else will be forgotten after the first game
