    This game has some loose edges. if you look away for one second, you just might find something better to do. not to fun.

    Well, much like the show itself. Repetitive, boring, and not worth the time spent on it.

    I hated it. it was a terrible game. and do you know what the saddest part is? I saw it at Wal-Mart, played it, came back the next day and they replaced it. dont buy it. if you REALLY want to play it, borrow it from a friend or, if you're desperate, wait 6 months and buy it for $5.99.

    Nothing more than an unpolished, but promising, rhythm title. [Feb 2004, p.103]

    A cash grab...a shallow game. It's a novelty that will disappoint many in the long run.

    If you want a good rhythm game, look elsewhere. And if you want American Idol, just go watch the show.
