I've owned this game for about a week and it is great. They have cute characters and a cool goth girl (that you have to unlock). They have all kinds of different music types. They even have a The Darkness song there for the punk rockers out there. $39.99 is a reasonble price since my parents wouldn't pay and I had to. You don't need one of those expensive $30 headsets, I bought the $15.95 Logitech Microphone and it works fine. I hope this review helps you.
Great new features and an even better variety of songs!

Wow! What a step up from the first version! When one is playing in a large group of people, it's great to be able to sing a shorter version of the song so there is less waiting. The medly feature is also fun. Remember Bill Murry on SNL as a lounge singer switching from song to song? You get to do this too with your choice of 3-5 songs. Also, songs load much faster.
There is a big debate as to if Komami should have just put out an expansion disk and not a full new game, but with these new features, I'll take the new game!
Buy this one on day one, and also look for the new special PS2 handheld Mic! It isn't very expensive, but it will improve your scores and make playing even more fun!

I'm not sure anymore what Generation Y or whatever another reviewer was talking about means anymore...but I can talk about the game as someone who was born in the end of 1963 and hasn't been paying attention to popular music for the past 5 years or so...
I got this game on day one, and I didn't know about half the songs...and I still love it! There are songs I remember from when I was a kid; those are fun to sing! Then there are songs I only heard bits of when seeing TV commericals for the local Top-40 radion station -- "Hit me baby one more time" as an example. No problem! I listened to the song on training mode, then played it on the very forgiving "Easy" level. What Fun! An hour later I had a Platinum Record on Expert Level! This game teaches you how to sing and there is huge variety. Version 2 has lots of gameplay improvements too!
Pick up the hand held mic (ABSOLUTELY!), and version 1 without the mic as well, and you've got a sure fire hit for any age group gathering. If you are shy about singing in public, buy it for yourself and play alone. In a few weeks you'll look for an excuse to sing with others. Really.
This game would have been worth it at double the price! (Version 1 as well!) And no, I don't work for Konami or anyone else in the industry, but I'd certainly consider it with games like this!
Great Game!

Karaoke Revolution is a great game. I don't have volume 1 but I decided to buy volume 2 because it looked like it had more songs that I know. You don't need volume 1 for this game to work. I may buy it later to get more songs. But I think they should have a way for you to upload more songs into the game. This has a great mix of contemporary and classic songs. My socom logitech usb headset mike works fine with this game. (At first I tried the talk net internet headset but it didn't work with this game) I really like using the headset because you can dance around and really get into singing the songs. This game is great and easy to use for everyone. I play only a couple of ps2 games so i'm that great at a lot of games but this game is great for everyone.
Not an expansion disk, but a lot of fun!

This game is deffinatly NOT an expansion disk, but rather a fully revamped game with a whole new library of songs. It looks like a blast to play and i will be picking one up as soon as it comes out.
Fun fun fun

for the whole family. I purchased all three versions for my daughter and she absolutely adores #2. I do suggest that if you are buying this for a younger maybe slightly tone deaf child that you invest in some ear plugs along with it. Perfect for entertainment at a birthday party too!
Fun and teaches you how to sing!

So far all of the reviewers (good and bad reviews) have been solely out of knowledge pre actually buying the game. However i bought the game and I think it is much better than the first one... I love that now there are a lot more characters (including one in what looks like a whinnie the pooh suit, which has to be unlocked) and more game choices. For example they have medley mode (probably the best new addition) where you can pick 5 songs or do it randomly (which is much more fun). What happens is it plays minute long snipits of the songs to sing, making it easier to do bunches of songs in smaller time. In random you dont know whats coming so u just go with it.
Overall i love this game and the new songs (toxic, I believe in a thing called love, etc.) are great!!
Better than the first

This game was so awesome. It is twice as fun as the first one is. I hope the third is just as good. If you like singing and you don't mind doing it in front of friends, this is the game for you. My friends and I have contests to see who is the best. We are all in college and enjoy playing the game. We are even doing a floor program with it. Go CCSU Blue Devils!!!
