This game is so much fun! you dont automatically get all 30 songs, you win them if you score over a certain limit on the different songs.

You also win the different enviornments, and characters the characters can sing in.

You also get graded like in high school :p throughout the song you get grades, and when you're done you get a final grade.

And i got a pleasent surprise when i went to something called extras and it had videos, interviews with the cast, dance along, and behind the scenes!

All in all a great game if you love HSM as much as i do.
Well worth the money!

Neices went bonkers....

I got this for 2 of my neices and I never heard so much screaming...they play this for hours. Can't go wrong with High School Musical. It actually can tell if you sing the right words or not...very fun. Kinda like a little girls version of don't forget the lyrics...

Excellent Wii game. Both of my daughters (ages 7 and 11) and their friends love singing with the songs and then being told they are a rock star. They love hearing their voices and being able to perform either as a solo or a duet. All the words are provided on the screen so it makes it very easy to sing along.

lots of family fun

Wonderful for the HSM fan in your family. It actually "grades" you based on your singing abilities to keep on pitch. You can win and unlock songs from HSM2 and new outfits for the characters. It has been endless fun for our family.

Awesome Game

LOVE this game! Gave it to my 10 year old for Christmas and he loves it. Getting better "grades" unlocks more clothing styles, characters and backgrounds. This is definitely a hit with my high school musical loving child. He has been playing it for hours and shows no signs of quitting soon.

Fun Game

This is a fun game for a wide variety of ages of HSM fans. Our whole family ranging in age from 5 and up like playing this together. My daughter especially likes that players can unlock new outfits and styles for their characters by performing well. The songs where you're expected to sing the harmony or embellishments are more challenging to score well on.

Family fun for all of us!

Although I'm pretty sure my 9yo likes "MLB Power Pros" better, our whole family is having a ton of fun with this game. It is uproariously funny to watch Daddy singing these songs, and the kids have a blast both singing the songs and watching their parents make fools out of themselves. My only complaint with my version is that I did not buy the bundle, so I had to buy the microphone separately... oh well.

Are there things I would change? Well, yeah, but what game is completely perfect? We also bought "Boogie" and I think HSM Sing It! is more fun.

High School Musical: Sing It Bundle with Microphone
My kids play/sing this every single day! It can be a bit annoying at times, but the kids are having a GREAT TIME playing/singing. My kids bond over this and invite their friends over to sing...it's fun and they have a lot of laughs over it.

We recently purchased the Wii for our 8 and 6 year old (and their parents). The kids love High School Musical 1 and 2 and listen to the soundtrack often. The game therefore seemed like a no-brainer. The game is fun, especially if your kids love the movies and sountracks. The graphics are not great. Music is great--it's the soundtracks from HSM 1 and 2. If your kids like to sing with the soundtracks, they will like it even more with this. Singing on tempo unlocks more songs and your kids can change venues to sing in (cafeteria, rooftop, auditorium, etc). There is nothing challenging about the game. It is simply karaoke. If you are looking for strategy or challenge, look elsewhere. If you are looking for you kids to sing for hours, it's great. Because of its lack of challenge and graphics, I would anticipate older kids will grow bored after a few hours--much more quickly than younger ones.

Entertaining but a little quirky

I'll echo a lot of what's been said - graphics are just okay, menus are touchy to navigate, and certain features/ways of getting around are not obvious. My 5 year old still loves it - she can't quite read yet but has the songs memorized (but it would help if the child is old enough to read well enough to keep up with the lyrics).

One tip for getting to sing the right part - it appears that the player gets the same part whether they are a boy or a girl. If the right part for you is not that part (and it looks like it usually is the first voice you hear), then pick Duet mode, name one of the built-in profiles as the player, and put yourself in as the profile for the duet. Since both profiles get the same score, this works out okay. But I think you still end up having to sing both voices.

Example - my daughter wanted to sing "Summertime" but ended up with Troy's voice - a little funny with the camera focused on her avatar singing and his voice coming out! We went back, named Troy as the player character, and put my daughter's profile (based on Gabriella) as the duet partner. We also picked "Corridors" for the venue. Voila, worked really well.

UPDATE: Got this info off a post at GameSpot - after you select the song you get to the screen where you set mic volume - if you look above the mic volume you'll see "Part 1" - if you click on the character name to the left of this to select it, you can then cycle between "Part 1," "Part 2," and "Mix." I'm not 100% sure exactly all it's doing, but it should at least let you pick a mode where the right voices are mapped to the right characters.

Four stars (maybe 3) if only because they could have done a somewhat better job making things work better.
