Grade: C+

Video Game » Video karaoke lands on the Xbox 360 with "Lips: Number One Hits," a ho-hum sequel that lacks value thanks to a short catalog of songs but nearly makes up for it with gaming's first wireless microphone. The game comes with 40 new songs, plus five free ones you can download from the Xbox Live Marketplace (and there's more you can purchase). That's about two dozen less than what the game should be shipped with, and the playlist also is not as varied for older players as it should be (c'mon, where's The Rolling Stones or '70s disco bands?). But the included mic does work with most "Rock Band" and "Guitar Hero" games.
