Microsoft announces Coldplay trio in song pack for Lips

busybeeburns · 26-02-2009, 02:24 PM

Microsoft has announced that its singalong game Lips is set to release its first downloadable song pack next month.

Available worldwide from 13 March, the song pack is set to feature three Coldplay songs, including "The Scientist", "Speed" and "In My Place".

However, if Coldplay isn't quite your thing, Microsoft has also announced nine individual tracks that will be released to Xbox Live Marketplace and the “Lips” Get Music Store between now and 6 March.

Already released on 20 February were tracks "How To Save a Life" by The Fray, "Speed Up" by Funkerman, and "Swing Life Away" by Rise Against.

Coming up over the next two weeks, with new releases on the 27 February and 6 March, you can expect six more tracks including "In The Shadows" by The Rasmus, "The Adventure" by Angels and Airwaves and "Hook Me Up" by Veronica.

Differently to the Coldplay songpack, all these songs will be available to buy separately.

Microsoft has also confirmed there will be a title update in early March to provide better scoring and better vibrato detection, as well as initiate global leaderboards so you can size up your performance with other Lips players around the world.

For full information on tracks or on Lips itself, head over to the Lips webpage.

Nice

An does somebody know how I can change my mood, and country etc....?

Cobalt · 26-02-2009, 02:40 PM

"Speed".

Gawd. Get the facts right, instead of just looking stupid, publisher-person.

Lips is just the worst name for such a product anyway - I'm even suprised Microsoft has stooped to such levels. They even had to confirm it was lips as in your mouth in one of the releases I heard

analoeskah, mood is changed under the "Welcome, analoeskah" bit. All others are in your User CP.

Heh... Coldplay are a horrible band to do that to with how often they reuse phrases.

So is it "Higher Speed" or "Speed of Sound"?

Corkus · 26-02-2009, 04:36 PM

^ Obviously "Speed of Sound". Casual fans have no idea what "High Speed" even is.

"In My Place" is actually already available. Reason being is that I was checking the latest content for Xbox Live the other day, and I saw one labeled "In My Place", which made me think, "The same song as that Coldplay one?" Surely enough, it had the AROBTTH icon next to it. Of course, I was merely looking for Guitar Hero material, as I don't own Lips. I want more Coldplay songs for Guitar Hero.

You're in luck! 'Shiver' is on World Tour and 'Yellow' 'Violet Hill' and 'God Put a Smile Upon Your Face' is on Legends of Rock (pretty sure that's the one right before World Tour). I play them CONSTANTLY!!!!!!!!!

Corkus · 26-02-2009, 07:59 PM

^ I know about those, which is why I said I want MORE of them.

I mean, Oasis has a whole album on there now!

Seriously, playing Talk or In My Place would be great.

Ah! Sorry

Yeah, those are pretty much the only songs I play on there. I think it's funny that Coldplay has a song on World Tour and so does SaDtriani!

miss_g · 26-02-2009, 09:22 PM

Wow I'm clearly not with the times...I've never heard of Lips!

But great for the CP songs being released.

That's obviously why you copied it.

You know it!

Thought I got it from a Pink Floyd song; I've never been on a forum with someone with a similar name :O

Done by! Gum by! In a cave in the hills he dwelt alone, And meat was hard to come by. Up came Tom with his big boots on. Said he to Troll: 'Pray, what is yon? For it looks like the shin o' my nuncle Tim, As should be a-lyin' in graveyard. Caveyard! Paveyard! This many a year has Tim been gone, And I thought he were lyin' in graveyard.' 'My lad,' said Troll, 'this bone I stole. But what be bones that lie in a hole? Thy nuncle was dead as a lump o' lead, Afore I found his shinbone. Tinbone! Thinbone! He can spare a share for a poor old troll, For he don't need his shinbone.' Said Tom: 'I don't see why the likes o' thee Without axin' leave should go makin' free With the shank or the shin o' my father's kin; So hand the old bone over! Rover! Trover! Though dead he be, it belongs to he; So hand the old bone over!' 'For a couple o' pins,' says Troll, and grins, 'I'll eat thee too, and gnaw thy shins. A bit o' fresh meat will go down sweet! I'll try my teeth on thee now. Hee now! See now! I'm tired o' gnawing old bones and skins; I've a mind to dine on thee now.' But just as he thought his dinner was caught, He found his hands had hold of naught. Before he could mind, Tom slipped behind And gave him the boot to larn him. Warn him! Darn him! A bump o' the boot on the seat, Tom thought, Would be the way to larn him. But harder than stone is the flesh and bone Of a troll that sits in the hills alone. As well set your boot to the mountain's root, For the seat of a troll don't feel it. Peel it! Heal it! Old Troll laughed, when he heard Tom groan, And he knew his toes could feel it. Tom's leg is game, since home he came, And his bootless foot is lasting lame; But Troll don't care, and he's still there With the bone he boned from its owner. Doner! Boner! Troll's old seat is still the same, And the bone he boned from its owner!" Albums of the Year 2011 - Vote Here!
