Lips: Number One Hits
The industry's practice of producing a game for one specific console has led to Singstar
on the PS3 and Lips on the Xbox.
Song lists are different, but the mechanics are similar enough that friends can party without any learning curve whatsoever.
Lips: Number One Hits is actually Lips number 2 and the songs from the
earlier game are compatible with the new one.
The microphone - wireless and twinkling with lights is also compatible with most Rock Band,
Guitar Hero games and Disney's Sing It! High School Musical 3: Senior Year.
The microphone is motion sensitive and shaking, gesturing and posing is part of the game for big scores.
Rating is on pitch and timing but now vibrato is a good thing.
Personally, I never liked vibrato and don't think it should be encouraged.
For the multi-taskers, the microphone can be used as a percussion instrument along with the
controller for tambourines, claps and cowbells. This is getting to be a wild party.
The song list, as the title says, are songs that have been on the number one position on global music
charts - 40 plus an additional 5 to download should keep the party going for a long time.
Check them out.
