I have loved Karaoke revolution from the beginning. I didn't think it could be any better than the 3rd version when they added the duets. This version takes the game to a whole new level. There is a wide variety of songs, so many different types of people can play. There are several songs that begin locked, but it didn't take too long to get them unlocked. The mini games are terrible and there was no need for them on the disk.

I found that it is near impossible to both sing and dance at the same time. If you don't know all the words to a song, it is impossible to read the singing and dance lines at the same time. Besides, it's extremely difficult to speak, much less sing while exerting yourself on the dance pad. I recommend having one person sing and another dance. This changes it up and gives you some great songs to dance to. I like the DDR games, but never have been crazy about the songs, so I really like the great songs.

Final Verdit: Run don't walk to buy Karaoke Revolution Party!

This game ROCKS!
Santa brought this game, and I don't think we've stopped playing since! It is such a blast, and really brings the family together. We were all so excited when my husband finally beat platinum on "Brick House" (it was our last one left that wasn't platinum) the other day. It has a great variety of songs...new and old. Another reviewer said there weren't enough new songs, and I disagree. My friends' daughters (21 and 16) even commented on how many new ones there were (but they still chose to sing "Take On Me" from the 80's. My 8-year-old and my husband have gotten perfect scores on "Material Girl." In fact, my daughter loves all the old 80's tunes. The only problem we've had with this game is that the arrows don't show up for the dancing. We don't have a mat, but we tried it at someone else's house. Anyway, I'm sure we'll get that squared away by the time we get a mat. I cannot recommend this game enough! Don't get the headset, the regular mics are better...be sure to get two for duets!

The Best Yet
I don't know how to extoll the praises of this game loudly enough. We plugged it in on Christmas morning and the entire family and friends have been playing it ever since. The selection of songs is excellent. The sing and dance feature brings sends this game WAY out in front of earlier editions (which we also have). The eye toy is a good addition. Just everything about it is first rate. I can't think of a single drawback. My only suggestion is that you purchase the game and make it an experience for the entire family, PARENTS TOO!
