Was looking at holiday villas last night. (We're planning to go with friends next year). The one we've selected has a PS2 = I'M TAKING THE SINGSTAR DISKS AND MICS!!!!eleven

[siteguru]

I ordered two new Singstar games off Amazon, and they're in the post!

Legends and Rock Ballads.

[Ekona]

Don't get R&B. It's rubbish.

[siteguru]

I looked at it but it's full of burds stuff - no good for blorkes.

PS3 version is now due out on the 7th of next month and single tracks downloaded from the PS3 SingStore will cost 99p each, apparently.


I'll be amazed if it does come out on time since it's been delayed about 4 times already, but apparently they're demoing the game at the O2 Arena for the next month so it may just happen.

Anyone bought this yet? Anyone good at it? I got pwned at Hey Ya!

Needs more songs on the store, I really want love shack and the reason!!!

[Ekona]

So you haven't got access to the entire SS back catalogue then?! What a crock, that's put me off buying a PS3 until they get that sorted now.

[DCUK7]

Yeah, that kinda made me a little annoyed. Sony said that at lauch there would be 300 songs available in the SingStore and upon checking it now there are 62! I think they are going to build up to 300 by slowly releasing the PS2 back catalog. That way it looks like they are constantly updating the store when all they are doing is slowly delivering on what they said they would.

Still, there is a decent selection on the disc!

Edit: Apparently there is going to be a BIG update tomorrow (Monday)!

[Ekona]

So? Is there? I got my Christmas bonus today so I've got a wad of money burning a hole in my pocket

[RB]

Get a PS3 anyway, they are well worth it for all kinds of reasons.

[Ekona]

I can only think of three:

1. SingStar
2. Gran Turismo
3. Blu-Ray


Given that GT won't be out until at least Spring '08, if I'm buying it almost solely for SS then I want the full 300+ songs.

[RB]

4. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune.
5. Haze (Soon)
6. PSN home (Soon)
7. Frickin' kittens come out of the thing.
8. Real men have PS3s
9. You want it.

[Ekona]

4. Mebbe, not a fan of TR-style games though.
5. True
6. Don't care, won't ever use it
7. ME WUBS TEH KITTEZ!!!11
8. i want to be a real man mummy
9. Also true



Current and future releases are listed here

Actually, that's not so bad. There's a lot of tracks on there already that aren't on the PS2 versions and that I want (Manics stuff for starters), so this may just require a purchase now...

[Ekona]

Of course, this is presuming that there isn't a PS3 shortage so close to Christmas.
