"Gleeks" will love singing songs, but some have teen themes.

What’s It About?
KARAOKE REVOLUTION GLEE: VOLUME 3 is a karaoke game where players sing a song from the list of 34 songs that run the gamut from older classics ("I Want to Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles, Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way," Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are") to more contemporary songs (like "Loser Like Me" by Sixpence None the Richer and Katy Perry's "Firework"). Players sing the lyrics and record points by hitting the right pitch. Modes of play include duets and battles (where players try to get the highest score).
Is It Any Good?
There is little doubt that the cast members of the TV show Glee can sing, and this is a fun way for fans of the show to join in on that singing. But if you're not a fan of the show, the music videos and some renditions might leave some people a little cold. The first time through it's a blast, but you need to be a "Gleek" to want to play it again. This would be a decent party game, though, and the game's graphics are certainly well done. The bundle of the game with the microphone is a nice touch. This is a polished game, to be sure, particularly for fans of the show.
