 Perfect party game.. just be sure to invite your neighbours September 20, 2008
To be honest song selection was disappointing, both online and the 30 songs that came on the CD. But interface and overall presentation is nicer than American Idol. Once we find a song that we like, it is a lot more fun, especially if you turn on video feed from camera.
I am hoping they will add more hip hop songs soon, thats what all my friends want to sing. I don't care much for the hiphop songs, so it is fine with me.
 Horrible song selection July 27, 2008

I could understand Guitar Hero and Rock Band not having any non Rock & Roll songs. But SingStar has no excuse with this kind of song selection since it is being marketed as a Karaoke Game.
No Motown, no classics, just bunch of songs that the guitar hero and rock band demographics might be familiar with.
Great Game But Too Few & So So Songs Included. July 19, 2008

I agree with the positive reviews here and the Mics do work well. My only beef is too few songs included at 30 and most of them were very so-so low on list for me. I had to spend $20.00 for another 13 songs or so to make the singing interesting to me.
They could also charge $.99 for the songs instead of $1.49 as well.
Song selection is awful July 2, 2008

Firstly, I must say that the game itself is great. Hugely entertaining and fun to play. The major problem with it is lack of songs - or rather, lack of good songs.. The bundle itself comes with 30 songs, which, even if I liked all of them (which I don't) wouldn't last me more than a couple of hours of play time. After an hour or so, my husband and I exhausted all the included songs, so we signed online to download more. Out of over 200 songs, there were only about 20 he and I had ever even heard of, and of those, we liked less than 10. I am actually shocked by how poor the song selection is - no current pop artists (Christina, Justin) or R&B (Beyonce, Ciara) or popular bands (Maroon 5, Dave Matthews) - no Sting, John Mayer, Phil Colins, BeeGees, Black Eyed Peas, Norah Jones.. no Country music to speak of... and yet hundreds of songs by unknown artists? I've retired the game until a proper song selection is made available.
Another problem is the difference in volume between songs. One selection is barely audible and the next one is blowing out your ear drums, so you basically have to reset background and mic volume levels everytime you change songs.
I would suggest checking out the song selection online first. If you can find atleast 40 songs you'd be willing to spend $1.50 on, go ahead and buy the game. If not, I would wait.
Great product! July 1, 2008
This game is great fun! I have spent many hours with friends and family trying to become singing stars. I haven't found any cons at this time, but there is one thing you will not be able to avoid. If you have always thought you could sing, but maybe you really can't and your friends won't or can't tell you the truth...you may or may not want to purchase this item because it will not pull any punches. Your delusions of becoming the next American Idol could end in a matter of moments!!!
