Eurogamer: Lips Review

SingStar, anyone? Judging by more than 15 million sales and more than 2.2 million song downloads, the answer is yes. Microsoft wants in on the action, just as it does with EyeToy (You're in the Movies) and Buzz (Scene It?), and so it has enlisted respected Japanese music game developer iNiS to create an alternative that matches the Sony game almost word for word and hopefully builds on it. 

The result is a karaoke experience fundamentally indivisible from Sony's vision of how it should work - right down to an outright refusal to use the 'k' word anywhere near it. Players of Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band will recognise the formula too; your singing is rated according to pitch and timing rather than exact notes. However, Lips also aims to outdo the competition by celebrating and rewarding vibrato, rather than punishing it as deviation, and although it often denies you points for brief and low starting points, the way you react to sudden changes in a song's pitch is marked with greater sympathy5/10http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=309023 Eurogamer: Lips Review

I want to know how the implications of your own music library work. If it's efficient enough, I may get this in January when the spending mayhem that has encompassed the past few months of my life dies down a bit.

Lips is a better game then Singstar.
[QUOTE=''PS3_3DO'']Lips is a better game then Singstar.  [/QUOTE] How so? Everything it does is a step down from Singstar. Excluding the putting music from your ipod thing (which is pretty useless seeing how theres no lyrics or anything on the screen)And it doesn't have the awesome video features of Singstar.
Given the developer, i was expecting WAY more
