With Rock Band and Guitar Hero becoming big party hits adding a guitar, bass, and drums along with what made Karaoke popular, the singing part. Stand alone singing titles have to bring different things to the table in order to compete. So instead of just copying Karaoke Revolution (which came out before the Guitar Hero and eventual Rock Band craze.) They attempt to challenge those that already sing pretty good on those games by adding bonuses for matching artist vibrato, pitch, and tone. Sony's Singstar series has introduced four main iterations and numerous spin-offs. While Elite Beat Agents Developer Inis has only just started with the original LIPS game for the XBOX 360.
On this edition of Know Your Industry, Loading Reality gets the chance to have a chat with Roger Kurtz, one of the Producers for the upcoming Lips: Party Classics and the already released Lips: Number One Hits. He describes his pursuit of getting into gaming by taking it slow, favorite experiences working with Lips, top tracks in his Lips playlist, and what to expect from the newest game in the Lips series.
I love the Lips series and can't wait to get my hands on Party Classics. A lot of songs in that game that have needed to be on a singing game.

Annoy you if you die to the fact that Lady Gaga and Jason Mraz TMF not to be hit? I hope you both questions with a firm "no" is answered, otherwise you can instantly scroll to the bottom, watch the score and three points from pulling. Lips: Number One Hits contains as usual mountain of bad pop music nearly all decades."
Pads & Panels writes: "Lips: Number One Hits attempts to make karaoke at home an enjoyable experience, but a limited song selection, inconsistent scoring and some technical issues make it nothing more than a one-hit wonder."
Very good game. The fact that the mics are motion sensors as well makes it even more fun. It did have some issues at first but they fixed them all. I love this game!!!
