Family Gamer review Thu, 15 Oct 2009

Despite a questionable tracklist that seems devoid of any major pop songs, Lips is a fine karaoke style game that brings your friends and family together. With the ability to jump in and out of games, your family will be picking up a microphone to croon away the evenings with you. The addition of wireless, motion sensing microphones ensure that not only singing, but dancing and posing will ensue. I love Lips, my wife loves Lips and even the kids will jump in a warble with us, a true party game.

I'm not a fan of karaoke, in fact I hate it, and so it's very strange that I have a passion for singing games. As a huge fan of the SingStar series on the PlayStation I jumped at the chance to play Lips, a karaoke game for 360. It plays in the same vein as Singstar, with a music video plays behind the lyrics displayed and you have to sing along as best as you can to score points. Quite simple really, that must be why I enjoy it so much. There's no need to remember control schemes, adjust difficulty levels, I can just pick up a microphone and sing, albeit quite badly.

Lips is the 360 equivalent to the more established SingStar PS3. These games, and others like Boogie Wii or Sing It PS3, give karaoke a video gaming update. Not only do you get the usual videos and lyrics, but it shows you whether you're singing is on pitch and generates a score.
