Karaoke Revolution

Cheat Code Central

Hands down this is an excellent program. It's much more than a game and that's why I'm referring to it as a program. Every karaoke and potential karaoke singer should get this. Not only is it a lot of fun but it's one of the best ways to improve one's vocal prowess.

G4 TV

Mixing a great single-player game and a variety of multiplayer events, Karaoke Revolution is a cool, original, and distinctive party game.

If you're hesitant to buy this game because you can't sing well, don't worry- the flexible judging level makes it easy for just about anyone to pick up this game. This is definitely a must-have title.

Gamer's Hell

It bundles great gameplay, graphics, and astonishing sound to create a wonderful game. For anyone hoping to look for a party or family friendly game, Karaoke Revolution is a definite must.

Play Magazine

Best of all, the song list, spanning over three decades worth of popular American music, contains easily recognizable and fun songs for anyone raised here in the States. [Dec 2003, p.82]

GameZone

This is the best party game I've ever played. It's accessible to everyone. You don't even have to pick up a controller.

Yahoo! Games

The perfect party game, not to mention the best home karaoke product on the market.

GamerFeed

Another musical gem from Konami, the type of game that transcends videogames. Its pick up and play nature ensures that anyone can get into it and it's a great party game.

GameSpy

It's one of the best and most enjoyable rhythm / music games ever made.

GamePro

The game's voice recognition works great and enables you to switch from a low baritone to high falsetto without confusing the judging. Unfortunately, it doesn't distinguish whether you’re actually singing the correct lyrics, so you can get by with just "na, na, na'ing" it when you’re in trouble.

GamingTrend

All in all a fun, if brief, addition to the X-Revolution series, and well worth the price.

IGN

Not a deep game nor should it be. It's more like Karaoke Plus and does its job well.

Deeko

One of the most enjoyable breaks from traditional gaming to date. The possibilities are endless, the amusement factor is high, and the gameplay is quite easy to learn.

Game Informer

Far deeper and more enjoyable than Konami's "DDR" series, and nearly every other rhythm game. [Nov. 2003, p.150]

Game Chronicles

One of my favorite party games ever, with the 8-player support and the promise of more songs on the way, well in a word, Yay!

Game Revolution

For the many casual gamers wanting to subvert their non-gamer friends and significant others, Karaoke Revolution is among the best, edging out the "Eye Toy" and even the traditional "Dance Dance Revolution." It’s just about the best party game around.

GameNow

Even if your singing sounds like a goat being strangled, you can still play. [Dec 2003, p.62]

Electronic Gaming Monthly

I'm all about bringing the embarrassment, insanity, and fun of karaoke bars into living rooms across our nation - this is a game that anyone can pick up and instantly enjoy. [Dec 2003, p.216]

PSX Nation

Though expensive and gimmicky because of its headset peripheral Karaoke Revolution’s pitch/length interface is forgiving enough (depending on the selected difficulty) to let even those of us cursed with shitty voices get into the virtual act and carry a tune.

PSM Magazine

Serious multiplayer fun for crooners and caterwaulers alike! [Dec 2003, p.49]

GMR Magazine

Not nearly as embarrassing as "DDR", Karaoke Revolution is perfect for parties and tribal gatherings. [Dec 2003, p.67]

Gamenikki

Addictive and entertaining, but a bit short on songs.

Game Over Online

Players that can't carry a tune or adapt to the in-game renditions will be hampered, and the novelty can quickly grow stale after a few hours. If you like singing, you'll definitely want this game.

Official U.S. Playstation Magazine

One hell of a party game. If you like music and you have friends who like music, don't even think about it - buy this... But if you're looking for a real challenge, you won't find it here. [Dec 2003, p.162]

Into Liquid Sky

The score-based gameplay and actual event of singing in a group atmosphere more than outweighs the lackluster presentation.

GameSpot

A cool piece of technology, and it definitely has the potential to be a lot of fun, especially in a crowd setting.

eToychest

Its song selection is immediately accessible to anyone who listens to pop radio, but for those looking for a bit more variety in their musical games are bound to be disappointed, at least until a suitable expansion disc arrives.

Edge Magazine

Pitch detection is accurate and, for the songs you know, Konami couldn't have provided a better arena for belting out the warbles you've perfected in the shower. But for the songs you don't know - and there are likely to be many - those warbles will be your undoing, capsizing an otherwise satisfying quest for high score. [Aug 2004, p.106]

games(TM)

The main problem with Karaoke Revolution is one of range, and the list of over 30 songs throws in only a few old favourites among a lot of curveballs. Nevertheless, the technology that drives this is absolutely spot-on and, save for a few niggles, this is a unique gaming experience that shows promise for the future. [Jan 2004, p.121]
