Karaoke Revolution Gets Freq-ed Out

Posted by simoniker on from the bad-singing-won't-get-you-anywhere dept.

Thanks to the Gaming-Age forum regulars for pointing to a new official site for Konami's forthcoming PS2 title, Karaoke Revolution, including new screenshots, which says you can "Turn your PlayStation 2 into a high-end, interactive karaoke machine with Karaoke Revolution." This E3-announced title is interesting in a number of ways - it uses the PS2 USB headset for singing into, it seems to recognize voice pitch and timing, then judge you on it, and it's developed by beat-game junkies and Frequency and Amplitude creators, Harmonix, who have an excellent fansite devoted to their games at Freq.com.

    Amplitude and Frequency are two of the greatest games I've ever played. Absolutely addicting.

    I can't sing for crap, but I'll probably buy this game and make an ass of myself in front of friends and family. Check out Amplitude if you've never played it- it's WELL worth a look. Even if you don't like the rythm genre, and/or scott at the psycho DDR kids, it's really worth a look.
