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

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!
FUN GAME!!

I found the most entertaining thing about this game was reading these reviews! The guy that stated "for 18 to 30 year olds" this game just did not do it!! Are you serious? Get a job! Quit playing kid games! This game is great for kids. No wonder our world is falling apart, we have adults sitting around on couches playing games.
Great for those Tween HSM fans

This is a great game for all those tweeny HSM fans. My daughter just received a DS lite for Christmas. She has nevered owned any other game system & was able to play the game with minimal instructions. A very user friendly game. She tried a friends Hannah Montana game & found it too difficult to play & they both went back to this game. High recommend
Very entertaining (rhythm) 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.
Faaabuuulous!

My 7-year absolutely loves this game. She's managed to master it in a couple of weeks. Even so, she still enjoys playing and singing along!
Okay.

I am fifteen and this game is not very fun. It looked very fun from all the previews and pictures but to be quite frank, it's rather boring.
The main game itself is not incredibly fun either, it is similar to Elite Beat Agents / Ouendan, so it is a rhythm game, but it's sometimes confusing because there aren't numbers on the notes so you can't figure out what order they are in and you have to remember what order they popped up. I don't like how it interrupts you in the middle of a song to change instruments, it kind of disrupts the flow of the game and all the instruments sound to same to me anyway.
There is not too much reading and the text is big and it's pretty short, there's not really a storyline except that the kids are going to compete somewhere so you can just skip it anyway.
The graphics could improve, although it may be the DS. I think cartoons may have been a better option (although whenever a game contains a cartoon of an actual person, it looks nothing like that person..._ because a lot of the people's faces look crispy and discolored due to the DS bit/pixel/color support thing.
The game is kind of confusing because I could only play two songs at first and now I still have no idea how to get more songs (and I honestly don't feel like playing it more to find out).
If you really, really like High School Musical and the songs, you'll probably enjoy this game, but I quite like High School Musical and didn't like this game very much. I think Elite Beat Agents or Ouendan is a much better option.
