It’s an idea whose time has come, because everything else about this series is top-notch. And while we might nail down an “Ice Ice Baby” for old times’ sake, no self-respecting fan of R.E.M.’s “Everybody Hurts” is going to be caught dead singing anything by Color Me Badd.
Even if you do give SingStar ‘90s a last-gen pass on this criticism, what about the fact that it only has 30 songs, compared to 40 on the latest Karaoke Revolution game and nearly 60 in Rock Band (not counting downloadable stuff for PS3 and 360). Even Guitar Hero III, which publisher Activision is milking like a heifer that squirts fine vintage wine instead of calcium-rich cow juice, boasts more than 40 tracks. There should be more here, period.
One final note to Sony US: we would love to see SingStar Bollywood, which came out in the UK last year, over here. We can’t quibble about the song list for that one. Just make sure the subtitles are solid and we’re sold. We still love this series and can’t wait for the PS3 version.
