This review is from: Disney's High School Musical: Making the Cut (Video Game)

High School Musical Making the Cut is a great game for almost everyone. There is some reading involved so I would suggest getting this game for people who have basic reading abilities.

In this game the HSM cast competes in competitions to be the best in singing and dancing. You get to create your own music videos, you get to listen and sing to all your favorite songs from the movie, AND you get to play as your favorite characters. I believe there are a total of 12 songs you can interact in. You get to compete in local, regional, state, and national competitions and with each level advancement everything gets harder and faster. Within the game you get to shoot basketballs into the net, click on correct music notes, and copy letters that the game gives you. There is a lot of interaction with this game. You also get to keep the recordings that you make. Again I believe this is a great game for almost any age. If you like or love the movie then you will like or love this game

First of all, if you do not like rhythm games or hate musical movies, then stop reading now. However, if you do like the genre, this game is a good choice for you.

I love the songs from HSM, so I enjoyed this game quite a bit. The difficulty levels are well balanced, and I actually liked the hardest one better, because it makes you keep the beat along with the song's lyrics. In the fastest songs this is a good experience.

If you do not speak english, the game lets you choose from other languages (spanish, deutsch, italian and french). This is convenient and may even help with some foreign language training, as well.

I started playing it and couldn't stop until I'd finished the story mode. Of course, the challenge is to get perfect scores in each stage, so I will keep playing this for some time.

Only complaints would be that there is only one save file (there's space for three custom characters, but the story mode advances are shared) and that the songs are not performed by the actors. I understand why that is, since that would make the game more expensive. Even then, it is not that much of a problem, since I only could notice differences in Sharpay and Ryan's songs (which would be my favorite ones).

The graphics are okay, and the characters do look like their movie counterparts somewhat. Not next generation graphics, but not bad, either. There's even pictures of the actors during the story mode, and they all look very good.

Recommended game for music lovers.

What delights me is that all the songs from High School Musical one are included in this NDS game, and also the characters. The game is based on the songs and the characters and the story of High Schoo Musical. From Sharpay and Ryan performing Bop To The Top to the Woldcats' Getcha Head In The Game. players can follow their dance moves, listen to their songs, collect pictures of their favourite HSM stars and to join in the fun!
