It’s never easy to bounce back after you’ve screwed up. I’ve been there. Screwed up as badly as some people can ever screw up and get a second opportunity. Voxler Games screwed up last year with the first Steam release of Let’s Sing. For a long time the game was sitting with a negative user review status. It’s only been in the past few months that some kind souls have raised it to mixed but it still has less than a 50% positive-negative review percentage. So somewhat bravely they returned with the 2016 edition of their music game that remains popular on consoles. It appears that the developer put a lot of effort into listening to their player base over the past twelve months because the new release is a vastly superior product than the original. That’s a great thing for fans of music on a platform that is dying out for quality games in the genre. The first thing that I did when I loaded up Let’s Sing 2016 wasn’t actually sing any of the songs. No, I wanted to ensure that the jukebox mode worked properly and I really wanted the easiest achievement in the game out of the way early. That achievement is of course the ‘insert a token’ achievement. All you need to do is to listen to ten songs in a row while in jukebox mode. Between an occasional click between working it was a nice change. That leads me to the first issue that I have with the game but it’s an understandable one. Last year’s version of Let’s Sing did not have any downloadable content – good grief if the devs catch up on that one they might make as many songs available as Rocksmith – and it appears that may be the case once again this year. So what is the issue you may ask? It’s that the game is perhaps too centered on pop songs. You’re not going to find anything too alternative in the track list (you can see the entire track list below in the Steam Description). This immediately narrows the audience for the game as much as it attempts to broaden it. It’s clear that Voxler Games have gone for the whole not appealing to everyone so appeal to the popular group as much as possible strategy. Although I’ve been in a couple of bands and groups before – only very small groups that never went anywhere – I’m not a good singer at all. I’m much better than I was when I was younger and my partner seems to think that when I know a song and it’s in my alley that I can sing I really find it embarrassing to share my voice. It’d be a train wreck and I’d look like Gary Brolsma only there’d be a hideous sound instead of lip syncing. I think the game picks up on that as I’m not very good and show no signs of improvement. When it comes to elimination songs I quickly lose out. However, I do believe that the voice recognition software works as it should. I’ve seen people reporting that it’s broken for them so it may depend greatly on the quality of your microphone as well as your ability to hit the right notes. I believe that this is important as you need to look past the price of the game if you’re going to play it and at the price of a good quality microphone if you don’t have one. Both my Logitech webcam and my headset, I currently use a Kingston HyperX Cloud II, work consistently well. Voxler Games can be proud of the effort they’ve made since last release. It’s a worthy purchase this year – if you have or can get a quality microphone – but I’m really excited to see next year’s edition. If the studio can make a similar improvement next year’s edition has the potential to be one of the best singing (not necessarily music as a general genre) games ever made.

Listen, I ignored the comments that said that you wouldn't be able to calibrate the game, but spoiler alert: DO NOT IGNORE THE REVIEWS SAYING YOU CAN'T CALIBRATE THE GAME. My mic picks up the signing about a good half count after the lyrics have passed. It's no bueno.
It's going somewhere.. I miss the option for a bigger catalogue, but I'm guessing a DLC is already on its way. I just hope we are able to choose songs we want. Some kind of a store. I would also like to be able to turn up the volume on the mic, in the game. But think Singstar. It's going there.
There is a delay on your voice making this game unplayable. There is also no microphone input volume controls so have fun eating your mic.
- No mouse controls. - Game music is low, so when I turn it to a decent level for the game, and I forget and do anything else I have to scramble to turn things down. - You practically have to be right up next to your mic to be picked up at all, and there is no way to turn up the mic sensitivity. - Duplicate song if you have the original Let's Sing. - Not the best selection if you aren't from the UK. - Can't play the extra modes until you do well enough on a song, which is difficult because you have to me so close to the mic in the first place. It can be a bit of fun, but don't pay full price for it. Even if you sing all the songs it's a pretty short game.
This is reminiscent of a place in K-town NYC where the karaoke prgram rates your singing. The difference is, if you score above 90% at the karaoke bar, you get a free drink. The videos are the original music videos. With that said, this is a neat little program. Unfortunately, the songs are very limited. I only know 5 of the 35 songs and can only sing 3 of them. At the discounted price, it is not a bad deal. If there were DLCs to download, like Rocksmith, this would be a definite buy. But if you don't like more than 5 songs on here, pass or wait for a sale.
At a first glance, this karaoke type game isn't so bad. The menu navigation, and visuals are really bright and vibrant. Plus the songs even include the official video and option to show lyrics. With over 30+ different songs, ranging from many types of genres (notably pop), and the different game modes, you're sure to spend some time singing. However, there is no help, no guide, nor review that can help all us poor players with calibrating the mic properly ... And this is the main downfall for Let's Sing 2016. No matter how many times I try to adjust my microphone, the game doesn't count towards your vocal tones but rather how loud you are singing. I swear it feels like I'm screaming moreso than actual singing just to hit the bars right. Even then, sometimes I still get an 'Oops' score even when I hit most of the bars. That has to be some sort of bug, as players are never going to get a perfect score at this rate. Console games like these really need better transfer implementation from the Wii over to PC, otherwise it becomes damn near unplayable. And with the devs no longer actively updating this game, it gets a thumbs down from me.
The game has 35 tracks, which is alright in general and you can even play against others in local multiplayer, if you own multiple mic devices (or just have one device for one gamemode). That's all the positive aspects for this game. First of all, the game has no mouse support and you can only navigate with the keyboard in the menu, which is weird but I can get use to it. If you have multiple mic devices connected to your PC, than good luck finding the proper device and choosing it in game. If you want to calibrate your device, you can forget about it. When I sing, the game sometimes doesn't get my voice and often ignores it. The game promotes 7 game modes, but to be honest 2 of them is not really mention able because how similar they are. You are locked to the 35 tracks, so after some time you will get bored by them. If you want to play a karaoke game, avoid this one. I'm sure you can find something better and more varied than this thing. I don't recommend getting this at all.
Very funny game, havnt played this since i was a little girl, when i played it I laughed my butt off, beacuse u can hear in the background how u sound when u sing, and I was really bad. Theres really not alot of bad things to say about this game except that u have to sing loud if u use headset, i would recement that u use microphone. But over all is this a pretty good game.
