Summary

Complete with a computer generated Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell, with trademark insults, American Idol is a music-based, rhythm -action game that will allow you to style a contestant for the competition. Once you have created your Idol you’ll see your contestant through the auditions, various heats and then fingers crossed make it to the grand finale. However, if your contestant squeals and howls out of tune then prepare for heartache as Simon delivers one of his famous comments before you get booted off the show.

One of those rare games that make you wonder how it is even authorized to be sold for a profit.
