Microsoft and iNiS are keeping their pledge of frequent downloadable content for the hottest (and funniest) karaoke game to date, Lips. Fans of the game will have the opportunity to download 14 songs over the next few weeks starting on December 19. The artists participating are fairly famous. At least, we think we know who Tina Turner is.
The content this Friday will feature individual songs by The Fray, Bobby Brown, The Living End and Jamiroquai. And yes, the Jamiroquai song is “Virtual Insanity.” That means even iNiS is going to have a hard time making something crazier than the music video.
Haddaway, Men at Work, and Depeche Mode will all be making appearances in future weeks. Hit the break for the full release list with dates. Also, beware of trees made out of raw steak.
Available December 19:
* Over My Head (Cable Car) – The Fray * Every Little Step – Bobby Brown * Prisoner of Society – The Living End * Virtual Insanity – Jamiroquai
Available December 26:
* New Shoes – Paolo Nutini * What's Love Got To Do With It – Tina Turner * What Is Love? – Haddaway
Available January 2:
* Where Did Our Love Go – The Supremes * Let's Groove – Earth, Wind and Fire * Be Good Johnny – Men At Work * Somethin' Stupid – Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman
Available January 9:
* Superstar – Jamelia * People are People – Depeche Mode * Suddenly I See – KT Tunstall
Does anybody actually play Lips? Even when it was new on the market, the only person I knew to actually have spent any significant time with the game was Anthony Burch. Here's how that turned out in case you missed it.
Micros... It looks like those Xbox LIVE individual music stores that have been teased since the last update are finally hitting today.
Microsoft has announced that stores for Rock Band, Lips, and Guitar Hero should be available for dow... Lips. It’s a Microsoft-published karaoke videogame. The object of the videogame is to blow into a glowing microphone while a real song plays in the background. More air equals more points. Earned points can then be used... I really dig singing games, but I will admit that I never got around to picking up Lips for the 360. What can I say -- I know I don't listen to much of the norm when it comes to popular music, but I just wasn't that attracted... If you know me, you know that I love me some karaoke. I also own Lips, but admittedly haven't played it since some time last year. But they keep pumping out downloadable content for it, so someone must be playing it. Right? T... Remember a while back when we discovered that Lips Uno had been trademarked? Looks like that little revelation did indeed herald the arrival of a new Lips sequel, with Lips: Number One Hits announced today by Microsoft. As yo... We all know that LIPS was a huge runaway success that brought the casual crowd to Microsoft, draining the Wii of its fanbase and driving Nintendo into bankruptcy. Based upon that interstellar smash hit, it's hardly surprising... I've been playing Guitar Hero: Metallica on the Xbox 360 for the past few days (review incoming!), and I'm kind of wondering why no one told me -- the wireless microphones that shipped with Microsoft's karaoke game Lips work ... For the Xbox 360's first foray into the karaoke game genre, Lips wasn't too bad a start. However, there was one huge problem -- you didn't have to sing at all to win the game, which more or less countered the game's entire ex... While Lips certainly might not be the end-all, be-all of karaoke or music games, the microphones are damned nice. For one, they're wireless. They also have a nice weight to them. And, best of all, they light up. Unfortun...
