PS3 SINGSTAR Game Disc

Description

Unlike most previous SingStar games, SingStar for the PlayStation 3 features the ability to remove vocals. The songs feature the original music artist, and can be adapted from a single track master as with previous versions. SingStar then attempts to digitally remove the vocals from the track. The game will also allow users to fade out the vocal track once it detects the user singing, and return it if the user stops. The technology is unable to work on some songs due to the way they were mixed during recording.[1]

The game shipped with 30 songs on disc, with the ability to download more songs from the online SingStore. The SingStore initially launched with 41 songs,[2] including selected songs from the PS2 back catalogue, with more songs to be added regularly.[3] The downloads feature the entire music video, and are in high definition where available.

My SingStar Online is the online component of SingStar. The idea for My SingStar Online was inspired by people uploading photos and videos of SingStar parties to websites such as Flickr and YouTube.[4] The game could record photos and videos of players singing with the PlayStation Eye and the PS2 EyeToy,[1] then be saved to the PlayStation’s HDD or uploaded to the My SingStar Online network. Users could able to rate each other’s performances and leave comments on their profiles.
