Playing games after drinking heavily is a shortcut to being called a "noob" on Xbox Live before waking up on the sofa at 4am holding a joypad. Not so for frequently drunk PlayStation owners, for whom SingStar's mixture of karaoke and gentle competition supplies the perfect companion to lowered inhibitions.
PushSquare: "SingStar's a bit like the gift that keeps giving. For years Sony's karaoke platform has evolved - delivering iteration upon iteration to its core, yet somewhat niche, fanbase. And Sony's showing no sign of stopping that support with the addition of Vibrato. The new feature will allow you to pull your best Leona Lewis and actually score points for fluctuating held notes, rather than being penalised - something which occurs in Rock Band and Guitar Hero should you stray from the predetermined note line."
My wife, daughter and I have four of them.
Volume One, Two, ABBA and Queen. Want to get Motown! :o)

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.

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."
nice game
Not much of a review.
Could have at least included a track listing.
