Lips (Xbox 360)

...you do so. Well, Lips is like SingStar in that respect, but with a few extras. Lips is better than SingStar in some ways but worse in others. It is better because the microphones are a lot more fun; they are wireless and light up in time to the music. It is better because you can add effects such as delay and reverb to your voice and there is also a vocal reduction feature which works to an extent. You can also import your own music and sing a long ...
...of the scores as they are random. What is worse about it than SingStar is that the scoring seems pretty random throughout the whole game, and just blowing into the mic (white noise) can rack up the points. You can think you are singing well and get a crappy score which you just can't seem to improve on, and you could be singing not so good and get higher points! Although it boasts that vibrato and stability of your voice make a difference to the ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

...not to be. Lips also allows you to sing songs from other music devices such as the iPod. This however doesnt put the words up on the screen whilst singing so its a bit of a pointless feature in my opinion. ==Song List== 1 No One - Alicia Keys 2 Stand By Me - Ben E. King 3 Irreplaceable - Beyoncé 4 Call Me - Blondie 5 Boogie 2Nite - Booty Luv 6 With You - Chris Brown 7 Yellow - Coldplay 8 Personal Jesus - Depeche Mode 9 Survivor - Destiny's ...
...Young MC ==Verdict== Lips is a very good party game that doesnt really offer much more than any of the other karaoke games on the market. If you own the Xbox 360 and are on the look out for a game in this genre, you certainly wont be disappointed. The game does work best in a multiplayer environment and could have done with more tracks as standard. Even people with poor singing voices such as myself will be able to play this game and get decent ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

I purchased 'Lips' for £34.99 at a pre-owned price from Gamestation, the normal selling price is £39.99 for the two microphones, 4 aa batteries and the 'Lips' xbox 360 game. Once I opened the game I realised that it had never been opened before and that although I paid a pre-owned price, I wasn't getting a pre-owned game! You get two wireless microphones which have to be synced up to your Xbox 360 by pressing the search button on the front of the ...
...each of the wireless microphones. To place the batteries inside you have to screw off the top of the microphone, left up a slot and just place the batteries inside, this was very easy to do and took a matter of seconds (always essential when you're desperate to try out your new game!). Once synced you are ready to begin playing the game. You can dive right in and sing immediately which is what I did at first but there are also other options on the ...

LIPS MORE THAN A KAREOKE GAME, SINGSTAR HAS COMPETITION 360 WANTS THE FAMILY CROWN AND WANTS TO TAKE ON THE OTHER CONSOLES AND THIS IS ONE OF THEIR GAMES TO HELP, ALONG WITH IN THE MOVIES. The 360 wants to be a serious contender on the family market scene this year and this is one of the new games to help it get the crown is LIPS. It is far more than just a singstar copy. Lips is an exclent Kareoke style game. The game itself comes complete with ...

You have to sing each word to the very end of it to get a vibration bonus. There are also technique, style, pitch and performance stars to get. Scores for songs get awarded from biscuit to big bang. The more notes and things you get right in each song you are awarded stars. The more stars you get ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

LIPS - only for XBOX 360 I got this product new at christmas time for my mum and little sister. Its just brilliant, you are able to use the wireless microphones anywhere you want within range and you can add new songs from XBOX LIVE or your mp3/ipod device. The quality is perfect and the multiplayer is brilliant for home use and (or) parties. We have had several big parties since christmas day and the response from everyone that has used it has ...
...better. The format of LIPS is simple to operate and people of all ages can use it. After all, you only have to sing into a microphone. Lips is on every weekend in my house and is a favourite for many girls and boys alike. Its main difference is that its completely customisable and you can upload your choice of song to sing along to. You can purchase up to 6 microphones in total and have 6 different people singing at once competing or just having ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

So lips!!! another addition to the wild world or crazy games that are really fun. A really good game that is an essential for those party's and nights in. Especially over christmas with the guys and the gals over with a few cocktails and a lot of laughs. This is a really good product and a good competitor to its competitors. It has a really good choice of songs and an easy to use style of play with a good sense of fun from start to finish. With songs ...
...that most people will love. I would say that it really does show how far games have come on since back in the atari days! Theres so many features that easily beat its competitors like the ability to put your own music on for everyone to sing to plus the chance to buy more songs from xbox live to add to the already 40 great songs. i would say the only bad point of this game is the fact that the songs do become a bit repetitive after a while and unless ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

Lips is a game about fun, entertainment and laughs... Or the occasional beer? Lips is a game allowing the user (Player) to take command of the microphone and wack the volume up to highest to enjoy some good ol' fashion karaoke but digital style... This game is good if you enjoy performing in front of a crowd; but however, if you are shy and a little on the "Hide" side... Then this game is not for you. You can however, use your Headphones and listen ...
...don't like people hearing you sing, but to me this game feels like RockBands Vocal system... A little cheap and nasty if you will. During the game, you can sing a wide array of songs, for example "Take on Me - Aha" and "Personal Jesus - Depeche Mode" and a loved one by quiet a few people "ABC - Jackson 5" The game is ideal for adults and children but only during drinking sessions or family get togethers; overall the game is about as fun as waving ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

...lots of random people. Lips comes with two wireless microphones, which to the naked eye look plain and quite dull however the magic begins as soon as you sync them up to your 360. As the mics light up in time with the music, rather pretty. The disc comes with 40 songs (which vary depending on where you live) however there are a large variety of songs, theres something for everyone. At first I remember thinking...why would I want to sing 'ring of ...
...sing 'white flag by dido' or ' umbrella by rhianna'. Basically they have filled the disc with plenty of choice. Also you can buy microsoft points and purchase songs from the xbox marketplace. Points you can buy for most game shops/ supermarkets. 2100 points are usually around £17.50 and 4200 for £34.99. Sometime you can get these cheaper online. Alternativly you can buy points directly from microsoft. Most songs to download are 160 each so you can ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

...much adore it...! Lips is a kareoke game (like PS2's Sing It) for the xbox, you get the game of Lips and also two microphones which are wireless. The game is very easy to use, just pop in the game and connect the two microphones (or the one if your playing single player), the game then comes on, and you have a choice of around 30 songs to choose from, there's oldies, newies, rock, pop, dance. You then basically start to sing, the song words are on ...
...tone, pitch etc of the song, and you get points for how much of the song you get right. As I said you do have a point of around 30 songs, but to be honest this doesn't seem like very many if your having a full game, especially if your a little fussy on music, but unlike other games like this one, you can buy new songs off xbox live (you get free bronze membership with your xbox but can upgrade), I haven't actually bought any yet, but they cost around ...

...songs are added to the lips store every week, i think its about 3 or 4 songs at 150 microsoft points each (around £1.20ish). Heres the songs you get with the game : * a-ha "Take on Me" * Alicia Keys "No One" * Aly & AJ "Potential Break Up Song" * Avril Lavigne "Complicated" * Ben E. King "Stand by Me" * Beyoncé "Irreplaceable" * Blondie "Call Me" * Chris Brown "With You" * Coldplay "Yellow" * Depeche Mode "Personal Jesus" * Destiny's Child "Survivor" ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

I bought this game over singstar purely because i am an xbox user, not a ps3 user. At £30 (around christmas time) for game and mics I'd say it was a decent deal. The track listing is definatley a pro to this game. The variety of genres is impressive, ranging from 80's techno pop to modern RnB . There'll certainly be at least one track to suit anybody, and the xbox live store offers a wide range of extras, but at around £1.60 a pop, i'm not sure it's ...
...very inaccurate in sensing your pitch, ie. Coughing down the microphone will often bring in just as many points as singing. There is no "medium/easy/hard" diffculty levels, which to me, in itself, suggests that the scoring system isn't as advanced as singstar. on a positive note, it's easy achievement points, the microphones look alot flashier than in singstar, and it's a good laugh to have with your friends or family. I'd reccomend it if you, like ...

Review of Lips (Xbox 360)

I've always thought of the Xbox as a serious gamers console which had limited their market however 'Lips' has given the Xbox a new edge. With a mix of classic karaoke hits and current chart toppers, there is a song for everyone. The player also has a choice of videos to appear behind the lyrics with the possible of the original video or a battle scene. Another aspect that would appeal to the wallflower of the group is that the controller becomes ...
...be involved without having to say a word. The game includes 40 songs from various genres and offers the possibilty of downloading more sounds from the online store, including A-ha's 'take on me'. Players can achieve badges for pitch, performance etc which gives the 'Lips' a competitive game aspect, removing the appearance of any karaoke game. The wireless microphones are of brilliant quality and that built in lights flash to the sound of your voice. ...
