The first thing a reader should know is that this review has been written under protest. No joy was derived from the playing, singing and writing of it. Not because of the quality of the game, but simply the reviewer's personal opinion of the band in question. You see, the Singstar genre can be likened unto no other creature, with new versions cropping up every other month to provide the unsatiated with a karaoke version of their particular brand of musical preference that they can warble along with.
Perhaps it seems like only last week that the previous Singstar game graced the shelves of your local games store; perhaps you've been hankering for the next set of songs, or are waiting on that particular release that will let you karaoke all night to your favourite genre of music. Whatever the case, there seems to be no relenting in the Singstar titles being churned out. With such upcoming editions such as 'Take That' and 'Latino' it's clear that we can probably expect a Singstar Flemish Folk Songs before the end of the decade.
SingStar's recent offering, Boybands v Girlbands, reassuringly follows the winning formula set down by its predecessors. Although the title gives the impression it is geared at groups as opposed to the solitary songster, the choice of solo mode is still there along with all the other usual modes including pass the mic, duet and battle, so the shoot off solo artist has nothing to worry about.
