5.0 out of 5 stars Best birthday party ever, October 8, 2004

This review is from: Get On Da Mic with Microphone (Video Game)

My wife and I recently had a birthday party for our 13 year old son. Among the gifts he received was a copy of "Get on Da Mic". At first we didn't know what to think and were concerned about the rap content being offensive etc. you can't be too careful these days. Once my wife and I checked it out the kids had a chance to play the game and the entire party spent the next three hours completely entertained and laughing hysterically. What a fantastic concept. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants a more modern version of traditional Karaoke. Thank you for this great product.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Rappin' Great Time - Party Game, October 8, 2004

Big Daddy Bob - See all my reviews

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Get On Da Mic with Microphone (Video Game)

Just had to pick this up when I saw the song list...it's got All the heavies, Dre, Tupac, Biggie, Snoop, Missy, on and on. The game did a decent job of scoring your performance, while it can't figure out which word you're saying (neither can Karaoke Rev.) it can tell if you're rapping in the right place. Apparently you can cheat by mumbling or rubbing the mike with your hand, but if that's your thing then maybe this game isn't for you. If you DO WANT TO RAP though, this game shines in Party Mode. There's nothing better than gettin your gangsta style on with your friends watching, and it's even better to laugh at your friends doing the same. We had a room full of people with all different ages, kids to young parents, and everyone knew at least one song....Great time.

5.0 out of 5 stars KARAOKE LOVE FOR THE HIP HOP FANS, October 3, 2004

This review is from: Get On Da Mic with Microphone (Video Game)

GET ON DA MIC is the first pure rap karaoke game especially one that features unbelieveable music from some of today's hottest artists. You get hits like "Hypnotize (Notorious B.I.G.)", "Beautiful (Snoop Dogg)", "The Jump Off (Lil Kim & Mr. Cheeks)", "Hey Mama (Black Eyed Peas)", and "Jesus Walks" (Kanye West)" just to name a few. MTV host Sway is featured. The most positive aspects of the game: an excellent selection of hip hop songs; the fame dynamic gives you more reason to play; and there are lots of freestyle tracks (yes you can create your own rhymes)! Multiple highly unique levels of play take you through all aspects of a hip hop superstars career. You are able to do performances, get on mix tapes, get signed to record contracts and even go on tour. All the while you earn money than you can spend on everything; new outfits, jewelry and even a personal helicopter. There are multiple difficulty levels, interactive crowds and multiple customizable characters. THIS GAME WILL BE A HIT for karaoke fans as well as hip hop fans! THIS IS A MUST HAVE!
