Toys and Games Reviews of American Idol Talent Challenge

Customer Review: My granddaughter will love this for Christmas!
Summary: 5 Stars

There's nothing my granddaughter, Ashley, loves to do more than sing along to her favorite songs. And since she also enjoys watching AMERICAN IDOL--along with the rest of the family--I know she'll enjoy this DVD set.

Her friend Desarae already has one and she and Ashley sing-along together and have so much fun. She put it on her Christmas Wish List, so I can't go wrong with this gift. Of the twelve songs in the set, she's already chosen her faves and goes around the house singing them. Could that be a hint so Grandma won't forget what she wants?

I'm pleased that Ashley has the choice of singing alone or with a star, as the information above states. And,unlike her former CD player where she just sang and danced to the music, this product creates a challenge for her, complete with judges's comments. Since Ashley has never been one to shrink from a challenge, this may end up being her favorite Christmas gift.

The family is in for an unusual song-fest when Ashley finds her "groove." I wonder what comments Simon and Company would say were they to hear Ashley sing? ...

Anyway, I know my granddaughter will get many hours of fun and entertainment from this, so I'm hoping to avoid the "I'm bored ..." comments that float around the house from time to time. Typical of teens through the generations.

I checked this product at a local toy store and its durability is evident by the sample model holding up so well after being handled by so many customers.

Description of American Idol Talent Challenge

Do you have the talent that America is waiting for' Sing along with your favorite American Idol performers as you watch them on TV using your DVD player. This Talent Challenge features a working microphone and mixer, plus a DVD with 12 songs with and without original vocals from the show, so you can practice alone or hit it solo. There's even a karaoke-style screen text mode that shows the words as you sing. Try the echo effect to give your vocals a professional polish. Compete with friends, rate each others' performances using your DVD remote, then listen to Randy, Paula and Simon tell it like it is. Requires 6-volt AC, included; plus 4 "AA" batteries, not included. Also requires TV and DVD player, not included. 7" wide.
We all know from watching years of "American Idol" auditions that there are plenty of people out there who think they qualify as the next big music star. Now is there chance to step into the spotlight (at least of their living room) and prove their mettle. The American Idol Talent Challenge game lets all ages sing along with the performances on past Idol shows, be judged by their peers, and then hear actual comments from Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul based on the score.

Vocal Mixer
The vocal mixer lets you sing along with the included DVD or another DVD of your choice.
The game consists of a vocal mixer unit that you plug directly into your TV, a DVD with 12 songs performed by American Idol finalists, and one microphone. There are multiple ways to sing along: first you choose the song, then you choose whether or not you want the lyrics to scroll Karaoke-style across the screen or not, then you decide if you want the Idol contestant to sing along with you or if you?d prefer to go solo. You even get to choose your "stage" setting -- backgrounds include fireworks, cityscapes, stages, and more -- and the mixer allows you have your voice treated with cool sound effects.

Once you?ve sung (and danced) your heart out, your audience has a chance to cast their vote on your performance. By pressing the numbers 1 (lowest) through 9 (highest) on the DVD player?s remote control, they?ll determine your overall score and the comments that Randy and Paula give. The judges? comments are actual feedback that was given to an American Idol contestant after their live performance, which adds to the reality of the game. Even Ryan Seacrest is in on the fun. He hosts the game and helps keep things moving along.

Idol Screenshot
Choose a song, an Idol, and a background, then show Randy and Paula what you?ve got.
The DVD that comes with Talent Challenge features 12 performances for you to sing along to, including Paris Bennet?s "Fever," Chris Daughtry?s "I Walk the Line," Kelly Clarkson?s "Respect," Bo Bice?s "Satisfaction," and eight other hits. Four additional DVDs in the genres of country, pop, love songs, and classic hits feature another 12 songs each and are available separately should you want to expand your repertoire. Plus, a great feature that the game doesn?t really promote, is that the vocal mixer allows you to talk and/or sing along with other DVDs. So you can pop in a concert DVD to sing backup with your favorite band, or slide in a Disney musical to sing along with the characters. There won?t be the Karaoke option to help you out with lyrics, but it does mean hours of additional entertainment value. Four AA batteries are required, but not included.
