I Just Wanna Sing!

Ok. I admit it. I generally prefer to do my karaoke singing at the bar, but now there are so many music games out there that we can all pretty much stay at home. Before I had my son I knew where to find karaoke every single night of the week. I even met my boyfriend at karaoke. So, now that I spend a little more time at home I have been trying to figure out the best way to feed my karaoke addiction.

Rock Band and Guitar Hero
These are obviously major winners in the music game market. While both look really fun, it would be really hard for me to play the whole band by myself. Not only that but I am only really interested in singing and not the rest of the instruments. The good news is that I do not need to buy the full bundles for what I want out of these games. I always have the option to buy the software and a universal mic.

Karaoke Revolution and Lips Number One Hits
In case you hadn't already guessed, these games are singing games. They are both coming out in the near future and are sequels. Just like Rock Band and Guitar Hero both of these games have downloadable content that is added on a fairly regular basis. Given the fact that my biggest interest is singing it is really nice that the original LIPS Bundle comes with two universal mics. Both of these games obviously also focus on songs with a lot of vocals which is not always the case with the band style games.

Rock Band and Guitar Hero are on my "to buy" list, but I think that Lips and Karaoke Revolution will give me more bang not only for my buck but for what I am actually looking for. I know a lot of people might not agree with me, but karaoke has not stuck around this long for nothing.
