However, here in the States karaoke is just not the same -- too public and just not as "cool." "Karaoke Revolution Presents: American Idol Encore BUNDLE" lets us enjoy singing our favorite songs at home; with the fun element of competing against one another -- and putting ourselves at the mercy of the judges: Randy, Paula and Simon. They are as tough on you in the game as they are in real life! from Amazon.com A pleasant suprise, not only did my 11 year old daughter love this game (which was her Christmas gift) so did the rest of the family, including my 14 year old son. It's quite addictive and my son was pleased with the varied songs available on the game. from Amazon.com First off, I don't have broadband or an Xbox Live membership (the latter due to the former), so I can't download new songs for this game. That being said, the few songs that it already has aren't too shabby. from Amazon.com 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. from Amazon.com 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.) from Amazon.com During the past few months, my friends and I have been very interested in music video games and have spent many Friday afternoons and evenings playing them. This one has not been one of our favorites. First of all, there is no option to buy this game without the bundled USB microphone which adds to the cost. I already own multiple microphones from other singing games I have purchased and really didn't want any more. from Amazon.com 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! from Amazon.com This game feels rushed and unpolished. There are occasional glitches (graphic freezes and graphical anomalies such as your character singing into an invisible microphone) and it just feels like not much work was put into it. It just isn't nearly as much fun as Rock Band, and the pitch recognition in Rock Band is a lot more accurate. from Amazon.com Having already played the two previous Karaoke Revolution games for the oringal Xbox, this is a good and acceptable progression in the series. The comments from the American Idol cast adds a nice touch. from Amazon.com I am an Avid Singer, I am ranked pretty high on rock band in vocals. In the top 200 overall and top 5 in a few songs. Needless to say I was very much looking forward to this game. I actually got a ps3 for the new sing star game coming out. from Amazon.com
