IGN writes: "I like Lips. It's a solid, fun game that'll appeal to singing nerds like myself. The problem is that the game doesn't really do anything spectacularly. The song selection for this disc has some gems, but it's not amazing. The library menu is better looking than ever, but the lack of art for songs from the original game stinks. The leaderboards and challenges are nice, but an online community or way to play friends would've been better. The ability to swap discs is cool, but the process is cumbersome.
I could go on like that, but the long and short of it is that Lips is good, but it's not amazing. Hopefully, when the game gets a true sequel, some of these more nagging issues can be addressed and the title can truly move forward".
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."
I'll never understand the appeal of Karaoke games, but then again, a entire nation can't be wrong!
Edit: Just checked IGN's reviews for other Karaoke games, they really don't score as high as I thought!
