... I've never played Singstar, nor do I plan on it either... but I'm just curious: Do they have any other music genre's other than pop and all the big mainstream karaoke songs? Like, for example, are there metal bands included in any of the playlists? o.O


There is some stuff. I've got some Nightwish and Evanesence. The singstore's got a pretty dieverse cataloge of songs.

I love SingStar. I think the app for the microphone instead of needing a separate peripheral is genius.

How about anything a little heavier like Slipknot, Metallica or Trivium for example? I mean, IF there are enough bands in the store that it's worth getting for... I may end up having a bash... most likely while I'm drunk though, and have mates 'round, lol :P


I don't know, i'd have to take a look at the singstore and at the moment am not near my ps3. Though there might be one thing or the other form metalica (probbably nothing else matters :P) and slipknot, but i havent looked so i don't know .

If you have a ps3, there is a singstar is free (there's an app on the crossbar) so you could go check yourself if you want. Thoug if they have them they might not have many of their song.

Here's a list. I think it's pretty accurate as I've been checking the store constantly and it includes several recent releases. Seems like it doens't have the ones you mentioned, but you may wanna give a look at it anyway.

Edit: "Plenty of rock and metal to choose from…. Judas Priest, Iggy Pop, The Clash, Tenacious D, Def Leppard" (official comment on the ps blog).
