Product Description
Get ready to step up on stage and into the spotlight as you turn on your inner rock star with SingStar. It's sort of like Karaoke but ampd up toward a more sophisticated game level. Unleash the rebel within to pulse-pounding tracks form legends like Nirvana, David Bowie, Nickleback, Foo Fighters and Ozzy Osbourne in this Amped edition. Developed by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's London Studio, SingStar Amped offers a compilation of dozens of chart-topping hits for players to perform. Only SingStar allows players to steal the spotlight with a solo performance in single-player mode and share the stage with multiplayer options including cooperative Duet Mode, one-on-one Battle Mode and the team-based Pass-the-Mic.
Partial list of tunes (at writing) includes The Automatic -- Monster; Britney Spears -- Toxic; David Bowie -- Let's Dance; Franz Ferdinand -- Do You Want To; The Killers -- Mr. Brightside; Ne-Yo -- So Sick; OutKast -- Hey Ya!; Pixies -- Here Comes Your Man; Queens of the Stone Age -- Go With the Flow; Radiohead -- No Surprises; R.E.M. -- Losing My Religion; Scissor Sisters -- I Don't Feel Like Dancing; U2 -- Beautiful Day; Weezer -- Buddy Holly; Wolfmother -- Love Train
The perfect game to keep the party going, players can easily expand their song library by accessing the song list from any SingStar game for the PS2 while playing another, via the quick disc swap feature.
With the launch of the critically acclaimed SingStar and EyeToy series of games, Sony London Studio has created truly revolutionary and commercially successful IP and introduced the concept of social gaming to a whole new generation of consumers. With these two titles gaining 3 BAFTA awards between them and a whole host of accolades from the press and consumers as well as industry peers, the studio has gained an enviable reputation for creating fun, innovative games which appeal to gamers and non-gamers alike.

This is no different than the other SingStar series... Great! November 24, 2008
This is our newest addition to the SingStar series. These are a little harder rock than the others that we have, which makes it easier for my husband and boys to participate. Most of the songs are a little older, I've given it 4 stars as we'd like to see very current music. Alas, we know these songs. We already sing along to them in the car and such. So bringing it to a challenge amongst the family is that much better.
As far as the Sing Star series of games, it is the best on the market. You are singing along with the actual song. It's not a generic version of the song. You sing along with the music video, and not some silly cartoon character. You get scored on several factors of your singing such as your timing and ability to hit notes. Your score can be ranked as an Amateur, Hopeful, Rising Star, Superstar, and SingStar.
Ready To Rock October 8, 2008
i havnt actually PLAYED the game yet since i just got it and am waiting til a get together with my friends to bust this one out and try it out with more people which is always more fun than solo. but i did however, listen to each song to preview them and get a feel of what we'd be getting ourselves into with these and i came to realize two things... 1. i actually really did know most of these songs already and 2. we are going to have the funniest time trying to master these LOL there are some pretty low pitch songs on here and thats were our weaknesses lie soooo i can already imagine the craziness that will occur when we play this game. but these singstar games are always a great time waiting to happen if you get a group together. this volume has a great selection of old and a few newer rock songs and its a nice new challenge since the other singstar game i own that came with my PS2 is the Pop one. cant wait to try it out!

My family has a lot of fun with Singstar and we own Amped, Rocks, '80s and Pop. Amped is probably my favorite.
First thing you need to know is to not pay any attention the song list Amazon has on here, I think their's is pulled from the European version or something, I'd have to look. Someone complained about having this and not being familiar with any of the songs, do you live in cave? I'm pushing 50 and I know them and not because they're all from my "era" although some are. Typical of Singstar I don't think the songs really fit their version titles though. Like on Rocks there are songs here I don't think belong on the "Amped" version. Here's a listing of the songs on the US version.
Alice in Chains - Would?
Audioslave - Cochise
Blink 182 - I Miss You
Blue Oyster Cult - (Don't Fear) The Reaper
Boston - More Than A Feeling
Cheap Trick - I Want You To Want Me
David Bowie - Changes
Fall Out Boy - This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race
Foo Fighters - Best Of You
Free - Alright Now
Iggy Pop - Real Wild Child (Wild One)
Judas Priest - You've Got Another Thing Comin'
Motorhead - Ace Of Spades
Nickelback - Savin' Me
Nirvana - Come As You Are
O.A.R. - Love and Memories
Pearl Jam - Alive
Poison - Every Rose Has Its Thorn
Queens Of The Stone Age - Go With The Flow
Quiet Riot - Cum On Feel The Noize
Radiohead - Creep
Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop
Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild
Stone Temple Pilots - Vasoline
Sublime - Santeria
Talking Heads - Burning Down The House
The Killers - When You Were Young
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion
Yes - Owner Of A Lonely Heart
ZZ Top - Gimme All Your Lovin'
 You have to buy this game! March 24, 2008
This game is so much fun! We play it at every get together and let me tell you GUYS out there... The women love this game! Trust me when I say this is a five star game and a must have for every party.
Fun...? March 10, 2008
I got this game because I need more practice singing, and a non biased judge to tell me instantly how I am doing. In that way, this game is great, I get instant feedback on how well or badly I am singing. The song selection here is about right, as it is rock songs.
The main downside is that the game isn't that much fun, at least in solo mode. I don't have any other singing games, but I do have a couple DDR games and a guitar hero game. These are fun because you unlock songs (and other things) as you go along by how well you do, so it becomes a challenge. Here you do the song, then have to go through 3 or 4 annoying screens that don't have that much to do with game play (taking you picture?), before you finally get the chance to sing another song.
