Ooh, I saw Wicked and it was awesome. Singstar is the utter lame, but *sigh* I must admit that I like those songs listed.

Wicked..
Bleagh.
They should have a whole game just for Les Miserables. And one for Phantom.

Well, GH already opened up a new pansy ocean market with GH Aerosmith. Worst band ever. Now either Rock Band or GH should do a musical edition!!!
Guitar Hero: Grease!
or
Rock Band: Aladdin!
Think how neato it'd be to have all your friends together for that!

I know you're being sarcastic but it'd actually be kind of awesome to have a karaoke game that DIDN'T suck. Or allow for back-up singing in Rock Band. :O
I'm a girl so obviously I like the idea of games that promote the singing of Disney songs but it's quite unfortunate that any material marketed towards girls is just shovelware.

My experience with them is minimal, but they're fun games. The backup singing comment just made me think more of the GH: Grease edition... The Summer ?
I was picturing folks in my living room, all the instruments set up, playing away, and then like 3 backup singers doing the 'mmm bop bop, mm bop bop' bits...

Really? they got the rights to Bugsy Malone? There isn't even a North American DVD yet! Jody foster is trying to bury it! Still. If it DOES indeed have "Bad Guys" it's worth checking out.

Shh, don't say that too loud. You don't want John to come in here and write another novel about how biased you are for nintendo, how much the Wii sucks, and how much he is unbiased for Sony, do you?

I expect "Seasons of Love" is a must and will be on there.

Well hey, why does it have to be strictly broadway musicals? What about musical styled movies?
Am I the ONLY one who wouldn't kill for the Team America theme song? I mean... That WAS kinda... musical styled right?
Or what about the Scrubs musical? Who else wouldn't love to hear "Everything Comes Down To Poo"?

If the game has songs from Rocky Horror i'll have to buy it, it seems unlikely though since singstar is enjoyed by children and many parents would flip if they caught their kids singing "sweet transvestite"

Bugsy Malone?! Like thewiicast. I'm prettty surprised by that one. It seems like nobody remembers that very weird movie. Well, not quite nobody, since the finale's song was used in that Coke ad that spoofed GTA shown in movie theaters a while back.
If the rumored list is accurate, what an obscure choice. I wonder if something from "Newsies" will also make the cut. :o)

Better have Jesus Christ Superstar in it. Come to think of it, Superstar would be great for Rock Band.
