Those who've complained about this release are missing the point, I think - Singstore is there for those who want it, but for anyone who either lacks the ability or the will to download extra tracks individually, or who just wants an interesting array of songs, the discs are still worthwhile. All in all, this is a good package, and one that I'd recommend to anyone looking for a good, straightforward party game.
Anyway the songs are great, its good that they are bring out as many songs as they do and the new 2 playing singing is great. Cant wait for disc 3!!!
I must admitt that I don't usually go in for karaoke, dance games, tv quizes & the general "party games" which have been around for a while, however there was something with Singstar on PS3 which caught my attention. Usually whenever we have a bit of a house party, theres a 99% chance that the tunes will start coming on the iPods & everybody will have a bit of a sing along & over the years the songs included in the Singstar releases have started to get more diverse & with the regular volume releases, you will usually be able to find a song to suite everyone.
Even if you find the standard volumes are bit of a mixed bag, Singstar have now started to release titles dedicated to specific artists & genres including: Singstar Pop Edition, Singstar Motown, Singstar ABBA, Singstar Queen & Singstar Take That which will following later in the year.
Also if you want to build a personalised libray of songs taylored to your tastes, the PS3 Singstar series now includes Singstore which you can purchase tracks or songpacks in a similar vain to Rockband, Guitar Hero or iTunes.
Quite pleasingly you will find that the Sinstore on Singstar is updated quite regulary & has songs nicely organised in Artist, Genre & Songpack sections to help make finding & purchasing new songs as simple as possible... I've purchased loads of stuff from The Cure, The Stone Rose, The Hoosiers & there are hundreds more to choose from.... Read more ›
You can also choose to battle another player, so you both sing the song and see who has the highest score at the end. There is the duet option, so one person takes the lead and one the backup generally. There is an option to save the song you have sung also, so you can hear yourself over the music as you play it back, and so can keep it for a laugh or to see how you are improving
There is also the online store, where you can buy singles or music packs, I bought an 80s pack and a queen pack for about £4.50 each, and you get five songs on each. The pricing for singles is 99 pence which I think is a bit too much for a song so be wary of how many you buy, the price can stack up.
I hope they bring out a Tenacious D pack, that would be awesome, take note developers!!!
I have recently ordered the Abba Singstar, to add more variety and fun to the game play, which I will review also.
I know this songs aren't on singstore. Read more
