I was surfing around eBay for a few moments a little while ago. I was searching half-heartedly for a copy of Karaoke Revolution. Neither Futureshop or Best Buy stocked the game anymore, so I resorted to the auction site. I mean, that where I was able to pick up a copy of Katamari Damacy. Anyway, I was disappointed to see that most listings had a ridiculous shipping fee to Canada, so I put off getting the game.

I looked around some more and found out that a new KR game had come out. Thing is, it’s a special American Idol version. Hum. Well, I decided to go fetch it anyway since it was a chance to see what KR is like, and to get a microphone for my PS2. Well, I can unashamedly say that I enjoy the game. Even though the electronic versions of the judges constantly berate my bad singing, it’s still entertaining nonetheless. I have a quibble about the game though: the song list seems a bit limited. I guess it’s longer (40 songs) than some of the older KR games, but, do I really want to attempt to sing the song that Taylor fucking Hicks sang? Not really.

Anyway, since I enjoyed the game, I ewnt back to eBay and acquired a copy of Karaoke Revolution Party. The song list seems a bit more agreeable, so, I’m looking forward to putting my vocal chords to the test.
