PSX Extreme writes: "Okay, we will freely admit we're not fans of Hannah Montana; in fact, we had to do a bit of research on Wikipedia to become more familiar with her before attempting this review. Evidently, she's the daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus (strike one, in our opinion) and is quite the teenage phenom with millions of loyal, screaming fans just about everywhere she goes. Perhaps it's unfair to label her as another ex-member of the Mickey Mouse club who relies more on her looks and charisma than talent, but hey, we're not music critics. We're not about to pass judgment. When the music industry has a formula that works, they go with it, and that's just good business. On the other hand, we are quite adept at reviewing video games, and that's what this is: Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour, which is – not surprisingly – a music-based rhythm game specifically geared towards those many, many fans she has who will leap at any product with her picture on it. And we like music games. …just not this one."
PeanutButterGamer goes over his top 10 worst licensed video games and has SO much fun while doing it.
IGN know this is a kid's game and they are not the target audience but the gameplay is still joyless. It works well enough, but the stick movement isn't exciting and definitely doesn't make IGN feel like they are really on stage or doing anything connected to what's happening on stage. Add to that the poor visuals, and this game is guaranteed to only get played by the little ones who don't know any better.
