"Adding an online video repository and an online store full of songs takes SingStar to exciting new heights."
SingStar
The PlayStation 3 debut of SingStar delivers the same style of karaoke gameplay that you've seen in previous games, but with added online functionality you can now download new songs and share your performances with other users.
Overview
The first installment in the popular SingStar series to hit the PlayStation 3 is simply titled SingStar. Unlike most of the PlayStation 2 releases, SingStar PS3 doesn't come with a specific genre or era tied to it. Instead, the song list attempts to cover multiple genres, with more of a focus on songs that are popular in a specific territory. For example, the French release of this game has a track from French house pioneers, Daft Punk.
The goal of SingStar is to match the pitch and cadence of the original songs by singing into one of two microphones. With two players, the songs can be broken up into duets. At the end of each song, a score is given based on how well each player sings.
SingStar on the PlayStation 3 also adds a substantial online component to the game.
SingStore
The SingStore allows players to download additional songs for a fee. In the US, songs cost $1.49 and include both the song and the music video, which plays in the background while you sing. While the game's European launch was plagued with infrequent store updates and an initially paltry selection, the US version launched with 200 songs already available for purchase.
SingStar Online Profile
The other online component in SingStar is a cross between a video upload site and a social networking application. Players create profiles, fill out brief "about yourself" questions, and from there, players can upload and view 30-second video clips of song performances. These videos can be rated by other users. Snapshots and audio recordings can also be posted for other users.
