Family Fun! March 28, 2008 Trinityklm (Minnesota, United States) My 7 year old daughter, husband, and I are really enjoying this game! Initially, I wanted to get the unbundled version of this game since we already had a microphone from Rockband. But, I couldn't find one for Xbox 360, so I bought the bundled version, and I'm really glad I did! The game is a blast! We especially love singing together in a duet or battle format. Even if you don't sing well, you can be successful on the easy skill setting. The judging mode of the game is not as fun as the head-to-head mode, in my opinion. The judges are as annoying as they are on the show. Singing on easy, you always win and become an American Idol, so it's pretty predictable. Some improvements I would suggest would be more songs to unlock and a tour mode. It appears that there are only three songs to unlock and they aren't even very good songs. The rest are characters and videos, which I couldn't care less about unlocking. A tour mode (that you get to after you become an American Idol), would be fun, especially if it meant unlocking more songs and venues.
Okay singing game, terrible dancing characters! Yikes! June 24, 2008 James E. Kasal (St. Paul, MN USA) The actual singing part of the game is okay - nothing special - only buy this if you like the songs that are included. (Side note: If you like heavier music you should just buy the stand alone Rock Band game and a USB microphone.) The major setback for this game is the horrible character dancing during songs. You could have a character singing a rock song but they will dance like they are singing Britney Spears...really distracting. The AI judges in this game are very, very creepy - even more than in real life!
Pretty entertaining July 10, 2008 Fliplander (Seattle, WA United States) Very fun game for AI enthusiasts, fairly diverse song list included and plenty for download. My only qualm is that they do not follow the actual contest format of having you choose a song from a specific genre or pick them for you like in the later rounds or have you do two songs when the number of contestants is down to the final five or so. Also would like a more competitive mode so not everyone goes on to win finals in single player mode.
Awesome Game August 14, 2008 Mich I played this game once over a friend's house and I immediately knew I wanted to purchase it. It is so much fun and can really bring the family together. I'm not really into video games, but this one was an exception. I couldn't be more happier with the purchase! =]
KR: AIE November 11, 2008 Lam Wing Ching Primarily brought the game for the mic, as my Rockband mic was losing sensitivity. Mic. from this game so far has been excellent, the game itself is not as satisfying as the mic. Decent purchase.
