Lips is the ostensible competitor to Sony’s SingStar series, only Lips allows would-be singers to import DRM-free songs into the game to sing along with, while also featuring its own set of songs that come with the game or extra songs available as downloadable content.

Lips includes two motion-sensitive microphones that react to players’ movement and can also be used as percussion instruments, such as the tambourine. Extra players can join in with Xbox controllers which also control percussion instruments.

Lips will be available later this year on the Xbox 360, from developer iNiS, headed by Keiichi Yano, creator of Elite Beat Agents.
