"...you'll still be playing once the novelty of Wii tennis has worn off."
I await the Sony and Microsoft fanboys to latch onto that sentence like a fish to a hook. Due to having a less then fantastic voice I've never taken a shine to karaoke games but it's probably one of the best uses of DLC I've seen recently for expanding a game. Aren't these tracks cheaper than the Guitar Hero II DLC for the 360? For a licenced version with video that's not at all bad. |

Woo, sounds great!
Not too keen on any of the songs on the disc, so sony will no doubt be getting more of my cash. |

This and ROCK BAND will MAKE christmas!
Not sure about the 'rubbish resolution' of the PSeye making everything look 'like its made out of felt' - I think this is down to the resolution they have specifically chosen to record at. Besides, it works with any USB PnP camera right? If you like showing off, dressing up, recording your silliest moments for posterity and sharing them with others, you'll adore My SingStar. WIN! /*SOLD*

Heheheee i can't wait to get my hands on this!!!
That's one game that keeps my PS2 alive even now. Shame though for the poor first selection and the fact that you cannot transfer existing PS2 tracks. Oh well... Let the humiliation begin! |

and again, it will be a hit.
BUT it could be better than that and thats due to the 30sec video-limitation. think about online-contests for users. think about tv and videogame-happenings merged to one platform. think about 'american idol'-online. it would be a huge hit if bands or singers got casted via the ps3, where eveybody could participate and vote. create a band with the help of a cheap (he he) console. the media-hype would be massive. hope they will realize their chances and possibilities soon. |

I doubt the videos from the '80s are in 1080p.
In fact, that's probably why there are only new-ish songs on the disc. |

Good point. Although some older vids were shot using film. Just depends which source they used to encode the vids in singstar. |

Scrolling through this selection, it became clear how easy it will be to throw money at SingStar. At GBP 1 / EUR 1.49 each the tracks are reasonably priced.
Hmmm. They're more expensive than tracks on iTunes, which are themselves criticised for being too expensive. I'm not convinced. |

"It's a superb party game, and in our experience one you'll still be playing once the novelty of Wii tennis has worn off."
Why have a dig at Wii tennis? Comparative reviews make sense when comparing like games but this is just a cheap shot! |

So if you have the original PS2 microphones, you can buy the version without the microphones for half the price, leaving you enough money to buy 20 additional songs right off the bat, giving you 50 (mostly HD) videos for the price of a regular game. Right? ;)
(I'm always looking at things at the sunny side, and will ignore for a moment the shame that has lead to not having a wireless mike yet at launch ... but at least I do still have those mikes, so I can go for this cheap version) |

I await the Sony and Microsoft fanboys to latch onto that sentence like a fish to a hook. Because it's true? :o) |

That is the funniest review I have read in a long time and has cheered up my afternoon immensely so ta for that Ms. G.
If this has a fighting chance of annoying my irratating idiot upstairs neighbours who thunder around like a herd of wounded rhino and insist on having noisy sex ALL THE TIME then i'm sold. |
