Lips, Inis’ Xbox 360 karaoke simulator, tried to compete in an overcrowded market of music games last year. The title has mostly been remembered for its blinking wireless microphones which are really nice.

Lips, Inis’ Xbox 360 karaoke game, is designed for parties. Naturally, Lips comes with party games and “Kiss” is one of them. In this mode two players sing and match gestures with the motion sensitive microphone while moving towards the middle to share a kiss. This is…. an interesting evolution in co-op play. I [...]

When Microsoft announced Inis first Xbox 360 game, LiPS, at E3 they proudly proclaimed it would have music suited for each region it gets published in. There are already five different versions for Europe alone. Coming out sometime in the future are LiPS (English version), LiPS (Italian version), LiPS (Spanish version), LiPS (Swiss, Austrian, [...]

Right now Lips looks like just another karaoke game. The main difference during the singing mode is players tilt the microphone upwards to activate a “Star Stream” for bonus points.

Joystiq reports that Inis, the creator of cheerful music games like Gitaroo Man and Ouendan, might be the developer. However, Lips has primarily been attracting attention as a competitor to Singstar with the “killer” features of allowing custom [...]

As seen from their games, Inis is about bringing joy to others and encouraging the broken spirited with cheerleaders. Hidden from recent memory and probably a lot of the gaming public is Rain: Wonder Trip, an interactive PSP title where you interact with him in his limousine. You can check Rain’s schedule, answer questions in [...]

I’ve been wondering how Nintendo was going to handle Elite Beat Agents in Korea and since we’re nearing the October 11 release date information is pouring out. The short story is it’s Elite Beat Agents with nothing special except for Korean text. They get the same Western soundtrack and unless Nintendo is hiding something there [...]

When you start DS Style: Anata mo DS de Classic Kiite Mimasenka you’re taken into a room with a dog that is causally enjoying classical music in the background. In one song he is looking at a butterfly and in another the dog is snoring on the couch. The game quickly rotates through songs and [...]
