Sony has announced SingStar Volume 3 for PS3, SingStar Disney and SingStar Queen for PS2, and downloadable SingStar PS3 song packs during its Games Convention press conference.

Sony Europe boss David Reeves also revealed that you will soon be able to play SingStar PS2 tracks on PS3 thanks to an upcoming firmware update. Does that mean we'll get our money back if we bought them again on PSN?

Well anyway, artists on the Volume 3 disc include Barry Manilow, Michael Jackson, The Black-Eyed Peas and Katrina and the Waves.

SingStar Disney, meanwhile, is a PS2 compilation including songs from The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, The Jungle Book and The Little Mermaid, and will be released in the autumn.

As for the song packs, the first two will each feature five songs from Queen, and they will cost EUR 6.99 and be released in September. There is also a SingStar Queen release for PS2 planned.

SingStar already has a thriving downloadable content business thanks to SingStore, of course, and Reeves reported that over 2.2 million songs have been downloaded.
