Aren't some of Singstar games country specific?



Around the Network

Mario and Street Fighter. Mario has been able to escape the "I'm sick of this game" syndrome because all the games released in a given time period are different enough to keep people interested. Street Fighter though...they SERIOUSLY saturated the market with games in the late 90s, which was especially stupid since it was around that time other fighters were starting to gain mass popularity. It's kinda irritating that it took ten years for a new SF game to come out, but the break was seriously needed, business-wise.

Yup. I actually don't agree with Singstar being the most milked. I just think with the type of game it is, it should deserve a pardon. They need to makes different tracklists for different countries, and then need to give them all different variations for individual tastes. It just has certain expectations that force it to be "milked" in that sense. Sports games deserve the same pardon because they have to release yearly to catch roster updates for the fans.

Really? Halo? There's been four games in eight years. There has been about eight Call of Dutys and eight Ratchet and Clanks in the same time frame.

Not to mention more than 40 Singstars. I wonder if people are even reading the OP. Considering the responses so far, I doubt it.

I definately know of the 40 singstars, I know of a girl who buys said singstars like crazy. Considering they were in the 6th generation, it wasn't exactly easy to do what rockband or guitar hero has done in the 7th generation. Release 1 game, then release track packs as DLC to expand the library. All those singstars are simply the same title with different librarys of songs. So it's hard to see that as a milked franchise, as everyone has different tastes in music and sony is just catering to those different tastes.

 



Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

I read it. I just don't agree. Read my response to Jagged Sac for why.

Yeah, I agree with ya.  They just didn't go the DLC route.
