Get Ready For More Crazy Karaoke!
Does anyone remember this little gem from its glory days on the PS2? SingStar proved itself a giant back then through its selection of pop songs, as well as its signature microphones that turned any get together with family and friends into a hilarious karaoke session!
Sure it has trickled out other entries since, but nothing really measured up to its first few releases. However, Sony seems determined to give the franchise one last hurrah!
According to an article on Eurogamer –
Sony has announced a modest new SingStar game for PS4, called SingStar Celebration. It’s due Wednesday, 25th October, a day after my birthday in case you’re wondering, and is part of Sony’s PlayLink push. There’s no word on price but I’m checking.
PlayLink is Sony trying to broaden the PlayStation audience a bit, much like how Sony broadened the PS2 audience with games like SingStar and Buzz! in the first place. But these days there’s no need for an additional microphone or buzzer peripheral because we have smartphones.
SingStar Celebration, then, uses your – and your friends and family’s – phone as the microphone via a free app. Otherwise it’s SingStar as normal: sing along to a load of music videos while trying to match the pitch indicated by the blobby bars on screen.
