Singstar Rocks! Why don’t we have more here?
I have a massive woody for Singstar. It has done what the majority of all other rhythm games have not… real songs, by the real artists!
For as brilliant as Guitar Hero is, that final piece would make it better. For a game like “Get on Da Mic”, which has possibly the worst fake artists imaginable, it’s a death warrant. Those of you stuck on the Karaoke Revolution series owe it to yourself to try Singstar. Who needs animated bobble-headed avatars? Not you, and definitely not me! I wan’t to sing Sk8er Boi with Avril on the screen, in all her video goodness!
So, the UK has about nine versions, why aren’t they here? Ironically, it’s probably the reason I’m lauding it above. I’m betting securing those song rights are a few times more expensive in the good old U.S. of A than they are in the UK.
Or… we are all too busy spending money on GTA and Madden. Lame.
