(Croon to the theme of Livin’ La Vida Loca and YMCA, medley-style…)
So you’ve got a premonition,
Your DS could use some style…
Technique, and ambition,
Enough fun to last a while.
Well, this game will keep you rockin’, laughin’, plaaaaAAAaayin’ all night long
It grabs you with its kooky characters and it keeps you with its soooOOooong…
(chorus)
Have FUN. ALL. NIGHT. ALL. DAY.
Playin’ Elite Beat Agents!
Just TAP. THE. BEAT. A-WAY.
Playin’ Elite Beat Agents…

Just tap, a-with the music
Touch circles and draw the lines
It’s all… a-oh-so simple,
But, man, it plays so fine!
The graphics, bright and cheery, and the story’s real bizarre
Help a squad of singers cheer on folks in crisis near and faaaAAAaar…
Yeah, that’s really who you aaaAAAAaaare!
(chorus)
Have FUN. ALL. NIGHT. ALL. DAY.
Playin’ Elite Beat Agents!
Just TAP. THE. BEAT. A-WAY.
Playin’ Elite Beat Agents…

YEAH! YEAH, YEAH… Young man!
I know it sounds really odd
I say, young man!
But you should give it a nod
Yeah, play it!
It’s a really great game,
It is bound. To. Make. You. Hap-py!
Young man!
A great song list is there
Pop artists!
Like Madonna and Cher
Village People!
Songs going back to the
se-ven-ties. It. Will. Make. You. Hap-py.
(chorus)
It’s fun to play the game
Elite Beat A-Gents!
It’s fun to play the game
Elite Beat A-Ge-ents!
You thought PaRappa was great! You like Guitaroo-Man too!
This game’s peeeerrrRRrr-fect-for-youuuuUuuu.
… and it’s… wait… what do you mean, Livin’ La Vida Loca isn’t in the game? You mean I have to rewrite that all over again? Crap, it’s not easy being in the music biz…
| What Works | Score |
|---|---|
|
+ Great gameplay + Kooky story with crazy characters + Colorful graphics perfectly fit the theme of the game + Fun-filled song list with songs like Madonna’s Material Girl, Cher’s Believe and The Village People’s YMCA |
9.1 |
| What Doesn't | |
| - The odd theme and silly musical selections may not appeal to everyone. Odds are if you’re one of these people, you stopped reading this review quite some time ago. | |
| Under the Shrink-wrap | |
| Elite Beat Agents is a ridiculously silly music-rhythm game with a wacky song list, a laughably bizarre story, and fantastic gameplay. In other words, it’s just about everything a music-rhythm game should be, really. | |
