Amazon.co.uk Review
It's an ingenious idea--take various snippets from hit Sega games, mix in the EyeToy and add people. The result, Sega Superstars, is an excellent party game that all the family can enjoy. Really.
It features twelve minigames in all, each drawing inspiration from a Sega hit. Thus, the Sonic section demands a balancing act as you use your body to guide gaming's most infamous hedgehog on his latest quest for coins. Meanwhile, the Virtua Striker segment is more simplistic--you simply head a football and try and hit various targets, whilst Virtua Fighter is great as you punch and kick your opponent into submission. Space Channel 5 has you mimicking dance movements meanwhile, and Samba de Amigo is outstanding fun, as your arms become substitutes for maracas.
The highlight though is born from one of the firm's lower profile franchises. Puyo Pop is a work of some genius, as you use your body to direct blobs into the right colour receptacle. You'll find yourself contorting into distinctly unhealthy shapes as you try to beat the top score, and having similarly unhealthy amounts of fun as you do so.
In a pack of twelve, it's unsurprising that not everything hits, and we can't see the House of the Dead nor Billy Hatcher segments being used too often. But nonetheless Sega Superstars delivers buckets of entertainment, and then some. Best played in numbers, but no slouch with just one, it's arguably the finest EyeToy game to date.--Simon Brew

this is a waste of money!!!!
i bought this thinking it would be a great game but it wasnt. they are only half games, i wanted this a great bit of retro gaming but its rubbish donot buy it.
Sega does it again...
When I first played this I honestly thought..WOW!
Graphically this game is your standard SEGA graphics, good overall background effects and highly detailed character models.
The sound is probably the aspect that got this 5 stars instead of 4. Apart from some annoying rock music the rest of the music pieces our from the original games. Nights and Sonic.. The 2 most famous of the lot have some excellent music, for example "Green Hill Zone" music.
Gameplay is unfortuantely repetative and can get annoying,
But strangly this game seems to have the "One more go" effect so the repitition does seem to be a very minor aspect of the overall gameplay.
All in all an amazing game to add to the already amazing SEGA collection.
