Entertaining and Fun
I bought this game after comparing it to SingStar. I liked the songs on this game better and also am an Idol fan so this choice seemed better for me. The game is fun, song choices are diverse and very good. In Idol mode, you perform in an audition, get feedback and wait until you get yor tickets to Hollywood. You then can progress thru the series of eliminations - just like on the show. You also "Unlock" some songs, characters and apparel as you progress. There are also quickplay and one and two mc party modes. However, I am not sure whether it is a defect with the particular copy I have or a more global defect, but it is very difficult to select songs, your name, venue and a character as the cursor flies by so quickly it is difficult to highlight the desired selection. You can also select the level of judging criteria (easy, medium, hard, expert). Along with the words displayed, there are visual indications (bars with an arrow showing actual vs. target) on how high or low you should be singing which enable you to correct pitch problems. Overall, a lot of fun. You can use it with your EyeToy camera to see yourself on screen. I'm bringing my copy back and hoping the selection trouble is just with my particular copy.

It comes with a Microphone!
I know it looks corny, but it is great fun. With the game play angle it makes this game better than a Karaoke machine. The song selection is limited - but as you progress it "unlocks" new ones.
This would not satisfy a Karaoke enthusiast, but even a enthusiast would appreciate the fun factor of this great game.
Well done - looking forward to the next season...
