How Metascores Are Calculated

Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
Stars indicate the most critically-acclaimed games. |
In Music Jam, you play as either Miley Stewart or her alter ego, pop sensation Hannah Montana. As the game unfolds, you'll take on another rising pop singer, Savannah Star, in the music jam video contest. Add to that the problem of Miley's friends being stolen away by a popular new girl in the school and, well, it seems like a girl's work is never done. To develop your musical skills in the game, Music Jam will let you actually play a variety of instruments--from lead or rhythm guitar to bass, and even drums. You'll use a slightly different approach for each instrument, but the common denominator is always the combination of the stylus and touch screen. When playing rhythm guitar to one of Hannah's songs, for example, you'll simply strum the strings of a virtual guitar by moving your stylus across them, changing chords as you go by pressing buttons on the directional pad.
All critic scores are converted to a 100-point scale. If a critic does not indicate a score, we assign a score based on the general impression given by the text of the review. Learn more... 81

Hannah Montana: Music Jam shows a lot of effort and polish, despite a couple of weak points.

It’s not quite Guitar Hero DS, but your little girl will love it.

This game is an average kids game that could have been better with more in-depth gameplay features, such as more puzzle solving in the adventure and better mini-games. The music portion is good.

Although it's leaning in a good direction, Music Jam could've used some more rehearsal.

The story mode is ridiculously slow-paced, and involves going to the mall, shopping, changing clothes, getting haircuts… yeah. There are non-music minigames thrown in, but they’re half-assed and the music minigames, which are semi-Guitar Hero-style, are fun, but there’s no way to access them outside the story.

A music game crippled by a so-so adventure game, which leaves both kids and adults looking to High School Musical, or trying to get tickets to the real Hannah Montana Tour.

Music Jam is definitely a step up from your average, crappy TV show turned even crappier platformer, but that’s like saying a car accident is better for you than a train wreck.
