I agree with the previous reviews. When it works it's fun but getting it to work is hard! My game only works with just the original houses, objects and sims. Any downloaded stuff and the fame career track shuts down. So I have one neighborhood with fame track and the rest where you can't only visit. Don't buy this one. Stay with Vacation and Unleashed - they aren't nearly so much trouble.

Superstar = Betastar

Was this a beta release we had to PAY for as Mac people? Studio town goes crash, crash, crash even without any objects or skins installed from 3rd party download sites. I am on a Powerbook G4 1.25 ghz with 512 MB ram and an 80 gig hard drive so I clearly I have enough computer resources for the game. However, whenever I try to use many of the fame objects I crash which makes it frustating to nearly impossible to raise star status. Aspyr needs to do some major big-time updates for this expansion pack to work properly because it is a big let-down at this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If they would fix the problems it would be a fun game. Meanwhile, I am sorely disappointed with this expansion pack as a result. I cannot recommend this piece of software until Aspyr releases updates to fix some of the problems so that it is at least playable! Therefore, I have to give this expansion pack a poor rating for fun because it is no fun to have to restart, restart, restart superstar just to crash, crash and crash again.

Fun, as long as you don't go to the Studio Town

I purchased this game about two weeks ago. I was having a lot of fun with it until the game started throwing me to the desktop ( just as another person mentioned in their review). I continue to play, but I do not go to studio town anymore, which does eliminate a lot of the fun. I would like to be able to play in the Studio Town, so if anyone has a solution to this problem, please email me asap at : Liz@Hallmanstudio.com

Very cool; some issues

I'm using the Jaguar operating system for my G4 and not having problems with playing this. The game is cool, having a butler usually helps your characters and there are more neat things to buy. However it takes a while to figure out how to earn stars -- I have really figured out how to get and keep them, seems to require a lot of time in studiotown. Also some of the newer equipment seems odd such as the karaoke stage where sims act, not sing. The game also sinks into the background on the computer when you leave it for a while suggesting it requires more hands-on playing that previous versions. But I'm glad I got it for Christmas.

A really cool expansion pack!!!

waited a long time for this... good fun, but seems to have stability issues... quits unexpectedly at various points in the game... sigh...

Great but not the best

Yeah, I got it as soon as it came out and I had a lot of fun with it but then it started crashing when I sang in the recording booth so I could get 3 1/2 stars. But then I found SiModifier and with it you can change the star quality and now like everyone is at 5 stars!

Fun for a while

When I got this game I played it for a while but now I'm too sick of it. I think this is another one of Aspyrs attempts to make money off of yet another Expansion Pack.

This game is similar to Vacation. Its like; "Cool, Superstars, now what?"

So... You may choose whether or not you want to be influenced by me. If you want it, buy it! But now you've been warned.
