I know, I Know, Iknow!

This is not an original Bemani game, and a lot of people think that this game is for sissys, but I think this game is really fun in the company of you rfriends (specially if they do not sing and does`nt know the lyrics of the song.... its fun and you should at least give it a chance. Speasially the "Karaoke Revolution Party", it is my favorite.

Name: Karaoke Revolution (there are a lot of versions... choose your favorite one

)
Releaser: Harmonic (under license of Konami of corse)
Version: USA (NTSC)

Hey, Karaoke Revolution is a Bemani game, I thought... so why the heck not. I love KR, it's helped me to learn to sing way better. It's just fun to play alone, and especially around other people. I just love it when we have it at our local Lanime party, because it's so much fun to hear people suck royally. Like this one time, like fifteen people got together at once to sing Oops... I did it again. Man that was painful. So, Whoot for KR!

My favorite Karaoke Revolution is definitly Party. Least favorite is Country.

Definitively the Karaoke Revolution Country Sucks!..... I wonder who had de "wonderful" idea of create a music game with such a boring songs?!
Well abot the releaser of this game is a little complicated to explain because it was created by Harmonic & Dinamic, released by Konami and using the name of Bemani..... well as you can see is a little complicated, but that doesn`t matter, the game is good

I hope you`ve understood me!

I just checked out the songlist for KR Party, and wow it is ownage! The only thing that worries me is that when I see myself playing this game, I see it being done jokingly, rather than seriously, and therefore it might get a lot less attention than the games I do play seriously like Pop'n and IIDX. Like, I'm not the kind of person that sings often, so making a serious attempt at singing would seem weird to me, and kinda embarrassing. Any thoughts on this?

I never ever sing except when I play KR, and yes I do get somewhat emabarrassed when I sing in front of people. I don't why though, because everyone I sing around sucks.

And for the record I never sang before I played KR, but now I can get perfect scores on Hard difficulty, and even a few on Expert.

As long as you have fun, so what.

What do you do once you can get perfect scores on Hard?

I guess you're right, but $50 isn't exactly pocket change for me, especially after just buying a new Pop'n ASC.

I then try to get perfect scores on Expert difficulty, and after that I go Yahoo! I've only done that on like five of the songs throughout all of the games.

Karaoke Revolution Party is $50? It shouldn't be that much. Where did you look for it, Best Buy, GameStop, EB?

Oh, I didn't know there were different difficulties. What is the difference between a song on Hard and the same song on Expert?

My brother's friend has the game, and she said it's like 40 for the game and 50 for the bundle with the microphone. I assume it was at Gamestop or EBGames or some other video game store like that.

Karaoke Revolution has four difficulties: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Expert. The difference is how close to the actually note you have to be. On Easy you can be way off key, and still get a good score. On Expert you have to be right on the note, or you'll suck and lose.

Ah, I forgot about the microphone, that would explain things.

The length of the performance bar also increases as you increase the difficulty, making it more difficult to get Goods and Greats, which then also makes it more difficult to stay alive.

I like KR3 the most, just because it happens to have the greatest number of songs that I like. (And you can't go wrong with "Beat It")
