 Dont waste your Time or Money!! September 28, 2008
This is by far the worst tycoon game I have ever played! I love Tycoon games and have a huge variety. Some are better than others of course but this one was the worst I have ever seen. It is not even worth it to play it if it is free. It is very boring. I thought at first maybe I just didnt get this game, so I had other people play it and they all said it was the stupidist thing also. I thought it was so dumb that maybe I was just doing something wrong but guess not.
 I never seen a game with lower detail before... April 7, 2007
the good:uh um lets see thats hard... its cheap,the reqments are low?
the bad:There is no sound effects,only 1 short song and after thats over its dead silence,gets boring after 30 mins or if you didnt get the starter loan payed off 1 hour,after you pay off the starter loan its gets boring,dont you think you will get a little annoyed if all the advertisement is a one black in white picture of a lady and perfume?
well there is only 1 scene for each catagory of shows.
Well do you think the good can cover all the bad?I dont think so.I wonder how the devolepers feel about this game,they could of made this a great tycoon and sell it for lots but I guess they did not care.Should you buy this game?Even if you realy realy realy want to run a tv station your better off in buying the game called The Movies.Trust me its cheap but I think of it was made with the other free games that came with windows,its cheap but save your money remeber about shipping handling so its not as cheap as it looks.
Overall scores:
Gameplay:3(bad)
graphics:2(terrible)
sound:1(abysmal)
value:5(merly ok...) (becuase of price)
tilt:3(bad)
Overall:2.8(TERRIBLE)
Thank you for reading!
 Not to bad of a game if you like tycoon games March 16, 2007
At first when I went and downloaded this game I was like this is for a kid. Once I started playing it wasnt that bad of a game but I will be honest after starting over like 5 times I think I got control of it now and it seems pretty easy just meet your goals on advertisments and you will be fine.
So if you like tycoon games then get this game for 6 buxs like I did then go for it and buy this game you wont be disappointed for only 6 buxs.
The company could of made this game a great one but.... January 27, 2007

I wonder why the company made this a low quaility game.This could of been a moderate quaility game and sold it for $20-30 but i guess they dont care if people like it and they are making money or not.There is one old jazz sond in the game but after that short song is over its dead silence and no sound effect whats so ever (if they did add that stuff this game would be big)and the game is all black and white and just 1 picture for each kind of movie and there is 1 for advertisment also (if they took the time to make this like watching a movie on the game called The movies the graphics would of got higher).The gameplay could of been way better and cant be your main game you play becuase this game is no fun if you play it longer than 1 hour max a day.Altho there is so much bad it doesnt mean junk this game is better than junk it can be a great backup game if you get bored of games that are moderate and high quility games (happens somethimes).but the fair value cant cover all the bad. If you want to run a game to do with the Tv and movie industy buy the game called The Movies altho more expensive it is way better than this game.This game just wasnt well diesgned.
Unrealistic programming January 8, 2007

I have played many tycoon games and some are more difficult than others. However, TV Tycoon has absolutely no chance of winning. The setting is 1954, that is fine, except you begin with a Bank loan of 24,000,000 at an interest RATE of 20% per DAY (yes, that's correct)!!! In the beginning you can only make about 1-2 million a day which barely cover the 1 million dollar a day rental expense for the TV station.. by the time you are making any kind of income, the bank loan has compounded to over 60 million dollars, that would be 12 million a day interest, and at the end of 15 days you will owe over 1 billion dollars. NO way of winning this game! Not fun to always lose. Buy Zoo tycoon or Rollercoaster tycoon, or Resort tycoon, or Farm tycoon or SIM city instead. These games are winable.
