PSX Extreme writes: "With a rapidly growing number of American releases under its belt, the Singstar franchise is trying to penetrate the American gaming market the same way it has the European gaming market. But where as back in May SingStar was more than a welcome addition, today, with franchises offering expansive tracklists and a variety of ways to play, is Singstar still worth coming back to? It all depends on if instruments are your thing or not.
The one aspect I've always enjoyed in SingStar games was the authenticity. I've always preferred games with legitimate, licensed tracks, as opposed to covers - one of the reasons why I couldn't appreciate Guitar Hero for a while, as well as Konami's Karaoke Revolution games. So naturally, I've taken a liking to the series because not only does it feature licensed music, but also their music video playing in the background to go along with it."

It was earlier today that Sony revealed that karaoke classic SingStar was due to receive an Online Battle mode, due to be introduced in an update available in June.
However those that love to sing to their hearts content can gain access to the new mode prior to this, by applying to participate in the Beta.

Now that I got a PlayStation 3 for Christmas, however, I was able to dive straight into the SingStar pool head first! Before, I gave Lips good reviews because I didn't really have that much to compare it to. But now that I've had a chance to play both games, I thought it might be interesting to pit them against each other and see who comes out on top."
BeefJack writes: "A 'Party Picks' Track Pack is set to hit for SingStar to round off the New Year featuring such numbers as "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood and "You Sexy Thing" by Hot Chocolate. In addition, there's a couple of standalone tracks for play such as the long awaited inclusion of "I Would Do Anything For Love" by Meat Loaf officially making my personal collection complete."
Never really understood singing games.Maybe I will never will :(
