American Idol PlayStation 2

Going to Hollywood!

Pros: Song Choice, Easy of play, and Replayability

Cons: My Singing...

What can be said about this game, over all it isn't the easiest, I guess the other reviewer can sing better. American Idol is just like the contest, you have to stay on key. It doesn't matter if you know the words; you can mumble and hum them, as long as you are on key. Some of the songs, the words just zoom past, and you really struggle trying to read the words, sing it, and stay in key.

However, it is such a blast, and more fun with multiplayer. The game has several unlockable items, including songs, videos, and of course Create A Character Items.

The song list includes the following

+All My Life
+Alone
(+There's) Always Something There To Remind Me
+Be Without You
+Breakaway
+Build Me Up Buttercup
+Can't Help Falling In Love
+Crazy Little Thing Called Love
+Dilemma
+Do I Make You Proud
+Don't Let The Sun Go Down on Me
+Don't You Want Me
+Easy
+Every Rose Has Its Thorn
+Flying Without Wings
+Heartbreaker
+Heaven
+Hungry Like The Wolf
+If You Don't Know Me By Now
+It's Not Unusual
+Just The Way You Are
+Let's Stay Together
+Love Will Keep Us Together
+More Than Words
+Photograph
+Piano Man
+Proud Mary Rock With You
+Saving All My Love ForYou
+She Bangs
+Stand By Me
+Stickwitu
+Straight Up
+Sugar, We're Going Down
+The Real Thing
+Total Eclipse Of The Heart
+Unwritten
+What A Girl Wants
+You And Me
+You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling

You don't have to be an American Idol fan, just a fan of having fun to want to play this. However, if I can get a Platinum album while singing Let's Stay Together...makes me think the real American Auditions really are tough!
