Xbox 360's 'Lips' Karaoke Game Microphone Has Motion Sensing, Vegas Lounge Lights
Posted by Jason Chen at 9:30 AM on July 12, 2008
Could the rumoured upcoming "Lips" accessory + game to the Xbox 360 have the most advanced karaoke microphone for a game yet? Quite possibly. The game's made by iNiS, a team that's no stranger to music games, and features the accessory that pulses in time with your singing, plus detects how you swing it around when crooning in order to score extra points. It seems fantastic, but no amount of peripheral distractions will distract from how really awful your singing is. I mean seriously, vocal lessons aren't that expensive. [Gamekyo via Kotaku]

@snakepliskin: Don't let your narrowed "modern mind" limit the possibilities.
Instead, transport yourself back...back to the early 1970's....there you are...girls screaming...adrenaline coursing...sweat dripping down your rhinestone-encrusted white jumpsuit...you turn around, this mic in hand...You Are The King!

That mic looks good but with all the lights it looks how you say a little... gay. How hard is it to make a karaoke game though? Cant go wrong.

If this game becomes a hit in America it will show how fanboyish the 360's fanbase is. Same sh*t that's been out elsewhere for a looooooong time but now because it says "XBox360" it's the greatest thing all of a sudden.
Oh, and not trying to be a dick but since 360 fanboys love to say "SONY copied MS!!!"... isn't this game a ripoff? (BTW, I don't think "copying" is a bad thing. If nobody ever "copied" off of anyone then we wouldn't advance much).
