    This game has been given some very unfair ratings... For starters this is going to be a great game for: Party's,Kids and the whole family. The controls work well and the graphics are great. This is a real taster of what the Playstation Move has to offer!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot of bad reviews, probably by hard core gamers, but we play this at parties and most people love playing and/or watching it. You are not going kill monsters or enter a dungeon, just play silly games and not care who wins. You don’t play this for the graphics or sound, you play it for fun in a group.

    You do need the camera and a motion controller.

    At its heart, the game features a collection of mini-games which some work and some just don't. Just like all casual party games, Start the Party does target the younger gamer, more specifically those under 15.
