Singstar Pop
One of the first things that you will
notice about this title is that it’s easy to set up and get into. For
those of us that have played the other titles, you will be able to get
straight in and sing your heart out.
For those not in the know, Singstar Pop is a karaoke game that is a heap
of fun to play. You have two versions of the title that you can sink
your teeth into, the first being the full retail version that comes with
the two mics that you will need to battle it out and the other is just
the game itself.
The cool thing about the game is that not only do you get to sing the
songs by yourself and your friends, you also get to see the original
music video as well during your song! The video appears on screen along
with your traditional karaoke interface, telling you the words to the
song and when to sing them.
The tracklisting on the title is a lot of fun as well with folks being
more than happy with the listing that is there. Here are a list of the
artists and songs that are on this release:

Personally I was absolutely stoked to hear Eric B & Rakim’s Paid in Full
on this release which could easily be argued as one of the finest rap
albums ever made. I could spend the rest of this review talking about
that album and just might for that matter. Nah I won’t really.
As usual you can “cheat the game” by humming along in time with the
music, the title isn’t too judgemental if you really suck which will
suit everyone just fine after a few beers! As per Singstar Party the
single player career is no longer part of the game, however it is not an
element that is really missed that much.
I think that punters are going to get a kick out of this game. The
videos are good quality, the songs are apt and fun to sing and the fact
that you can have a sing off is always excellent. The audio as would be
expected is fantastic quality and should really motivate the singing
action!
If you haven’t tried the Singstar series before, you are safe to start
with any of them. They are a ton of fun and well worth the purchase of
regardless of what version you choose.
Boyoshucka!
