Video Game Reviews of Project Runway

Customer Review: I love Project Runway!...but this game is absolutely horrible.
Summary: 1 Stars

Yep, save your money. I love fashion, Project Runway, Games and a combination of them sounds like a dream. It didn't work.

1)First of all, the game looks horrible. The images of the models and the garmets look like they're from a PC game that came out 10 years ago. There are no fine details whatsoever. Everything has sharp jagged edges and the jewlery looks like globs of pixels.

2)There is no creativity involved. You have hardly any imput, the game tells you exactly what to do. The premise of the game follows the show, each challenge is considered an episode and you "work" with a Project Runway alumni. Basically, they just tell you what to do, if you don't do it, you don't score any points. I'd hardly call that customization. The only thing you can customize is the tint of the color for your garmet. Everything else...the color, pattern, length, makeup, hairstyle, ect. is given to you and required to win the challenge. For example, there is one challenge where you have to make a cheerleading outfit. Sounds fun right? Well...with three or four clicks you're done. There are only 3 or 4 choices total but you have to do specifically what is on the list. It hurts sometimes to put together such ugly outfits, but you have to do it or you won't win.

3) After you follow directions and produce some HIDEOUS looking design (that would NEVER be on the show), you do the most boring runway walk ever. Basically you can use the balance board and walk, or you can move the wii remote and nunchuck left and right. That's all there is to it. Just keep in rythm with the music that never changes. Left, Right, Left, Right, Up. EXCITING!! You're supposed to "pose" but really you can just flick your wrist, which in fact works better. You dont even have to stand up to do it, but even if you did, half of the movements don't register anyway. "Make it work". I dare you.

4) The judges say one of two things every round no matter what you do. They say one of two things if they like it and one of two things if they dont.For example, you could be doing pants and sweater and Michael Kors will tell you that "Your dress is chic". Oh really? Because it's not a dress. Thanks for noticing, Mikey.

5) The load times are LONG. Like...over a minute kind of long, and they occur after every move you make. So, each challenge you do ends up being 2 minutes of following simple directions and 5 minutes of waiting for the boredum to continue.

The game sucks. Period. It's obvious someone was trying to make a quick, cheaply made game for a certain target audience of Project Runway...let's say... 6-12 year old girls. Those are the only people who could possibly give this a positive rating. If you're above that age and actually into fashion and design, FORGET IT. I was so bored. Sure after you unlock all of the clothing you can customize your own nasty a** outfit, but why? I'd just LOVE to design a t-shirt with a seashell decal, wouldn't you? Yawn.

I could continue but you get the picture. I know, I know...I'm just as sad as you are. But, take it from me, save your money. Oh! I can't forget the exciting extras! Which include...still pictures from the show!!! YAY!!! Really? That's it?

In closing I'd like to add that this game is actually a total ripoff of a much better game, "Imagine Fashion Designer". That game has the same premise but is much more challenging, WAY more fun and provides a lot more choices. Oh, and oddly enough, despite being about 6 years older than this game...it has better graphics.

Heidi, give me my money back. Seriously.
