"If add-ons made the game then Lips would get top marks due to those microphones, which are essentially free, given the price that the package weighs in at. They don't, and the final score is down to the fact that playing the game itself is pretty much a complete waste of time. If you're feeling down and need somebody or something to tell you how great you are on regular occasions, then Lips is for you. If you're a normal person who wants the challenge of playing a singing game well, then you should probably look at getting into harder rock music and picking up Rock Band or Guitar Hero World Tour and their infinitely better singing sections. Either that or you can pick up a PS2 or PS3 and go to town with SingStar."
The team from This Is My Joystick look at their guilty gaming pleasures.
Deus Ex: Invisible War,LEGO Games,Lips, Boogie Bunnies and Beat Down: Fists of Vengeance are a few that get a mention.
With music franchises such as Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and Lips continuously pumping out content it can be a little daunting just thinking about all the songs and devotion you need to pour into each music game. Erik Johnsen delves into the assortment of old and new music games/content and whether they warrant excitement and the hype.
i think the whole music simulation genre is slowing down in popularity
it was an amazing way to experience new&old music but now its not much more than greedy companies competing to get the next sequel out as fast as possible with little innovation
Fancy yourself as the as the new lead singer in timeless West End shows such as “Cats” or the “Phantom of the Opera”, wowing crowds and being a part of some of the greatest shows on earth?
So that's 3/10 or 30/100. Well at least the title (Lips) is very appropriate. It sucks! Hehehe...
