Anyone ever heard of this developer before or played any of the games?

Some of them look fairly interesting.

The Popscene game looks pretty fun and it looks like there is a movie one coming out soon.

I remember playing a demo for one of the wrestling ones before... the features sounded really interesting, but I just never ended up buying it.

In a similar vein, I came across this site with some games I'd never heard of before. It has a soccer manager and boxing manger game that look interesting as well as a soccer goalkeeper rpg.

I played the demo for his wrestling game, it was clunky and felt like i was playing the old Wrestlemania game where you could do 3 moves total. It just felt very bogged down.

I tried the demo for Popscene for a (very!) little while today. Not so hot. A commendable effort because it appears as if the entire game (coding, design, graphics) were done by one person. That said, the game concept sounded promising, but the gameplay/graphics/performance is not pleasant.

It is a shame that there are not more entertainment-type text sims. Hollywood Mogul was spectacular and, someday, there will be a new one released. That television game by Bogus Entertainment sounded cool, but was supposedly very buggy. Music Maven has been really cool and I enjoy seeing its universe expand with new bands emerging, but is pretty much just a five-minute a day game.

It seems like there could be a pretty good market out there for non-sports, entertainment text sims. I'd assume more women would consider this genre over sports. It is too bad that there is not more available and/or on the horizon.

The boxing game sucks ass! And im being generous.

I was able to sign the top boxer after a month, and I didnt get any more money per fight than if I had signed a boxer ranked in the 30's. Be warned :)
