Just fired it up earlier today on my surround sound system, and it was fun hearing my voice come through with the song as well (hooray for nobody else being home during the day). I downloaded the Lordi song, and while I can usually sing rock/metal sort of decently, I just cannot find the right pitch to the Lemmy sounding like vocals. I'm always either too high or too low. Also, anyone else take a look at the videos yet? Definitely poke around the "hall of fame" area, there are some quite entertaining videos on there. The auto calibration was nice as well, all I had to do was hold the blue mic 10 centimeters from my right speaker, and it played some beeps and automatically determined a 30 ms audio lag for my system.

The songs on the disc are weak, [in terms of amount] especially when you compare it to the amount of DLC songs that are present. oh well..

Some of the videos are particularly weak sauce standard definition. Rio, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, She Bop look like bad Youtube recordings.

I'm up to about 75 songs.

I got the game, but awaiting for my mics to arrive (should be here Wednesday). I'm crazy excited to play this, because I spent a few hours previewing songs and watching videos of people singing. I could spend all day watching videos of people singing. I plan to post several of me singing eventually.

The songlist on the SingStar store rocks, and will make me good broke. My only gripe is there are many good songs in SingStar 90's which SingStar on PS3 lacks (making me want to buy SingStar 90's asap):

# Arrested Development- Tennessee # Boyz II Men- Motownphilly # Chumbawamba- Tubthumping # Color Me Badd- I Wanna Sex You Up # Divinyls- I Touch Myself # En Vogue- Free Your Mind # Extreme- More Than Words # Gin Blossoms- Hey Jealousy # Hootie and The Blowfish- Only Wanna Be With You # Jesus Jones- Right Here, Right Now # Len- Steal My Sunshine # MC Hammer- U Can’t Touch This # Natalie Imbruglia- Torn # New Kids On The Block- Step By Step # Nirvana- Lithium # Paula Abdul- Opposites Attract # Poison- Unskinny Bop # R.E.M.- Everybody Hurts # Santana feat. Rob Thomas- Smooth # Savage Garden- I Want You # Seal- Kiss From A Rose # Sir Mix A Lot- Baby Got Back # Sixpence None The Richer- Kiss Me # Soundgarden- Black Hole Sun # Spin Doctors- Two Princes # Technotronic feat. Felly- Pump Up The Jam # The Cranberries- Zombie # Vanilla Ice- Ice Ice Baby # Wilson Phillips- Hold On

I hope there are more M.C. Hammer (like Too Legit, Have You Seen Her), New Kid's on the Block (The Right Stuff, Hanging Tough, Tonight), etc. songs on the SingStar store. I just have way too many childhood memories of that music. It be nice to see more old school rap, like Naughty By Nature (Hip Hop Hooray), Kris Kross (like Jump, Warm It Up Kris, I missed the Bus), Wrex'n Effect, 2-Pac (Changes), etc.

I also want Madoona, Material Girl (which was in SingStar 80's).

Can't WAIT to pick this up.
How long is the cable for the microphone? I should be able to use my USB extension cable if I need it right?

I believe it's the same length of the PS2 ones. I'll let everyone know on Wednesday.

I've been on YouTube watching SingStar videos. Fun to watch:

That person posted over 170 or so.

I'm curious as to whether the U.S. version of SingStar Pop had the song Rihanna - S.O.S., because I watched the video and really liked it (hope it comes to the SingStar store).

Yeah, it does have S.O.S. on Singstar Pop. I pretty sure it does since I own that game.

Confirmed. My kid sings the out of that song. It's one of the more difficult ones too.

Here's the songs I'm probably going to get...

A-ha - Take On Me
Billy Joel - Uptown Girl
Billy Joel - Piano Man
Blondie - Heart Of Glass
Blur - Song2
Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart
Britney Spears - Baby One More Time
Don McLean - American Pie
Mr Big - To Be With You
Natalie Imbruglia - Torn
Nena - 99 Red Balloons
Spice Girls - Wannabe
Spice Girls - Who Do You Think You Are?
The Fray - How To Save A Life

Which ones?

Does anybody know of any way to get songs off the UK store? I can add them to my cart, but beyond that there's no way to add funds.

Yeah really, as I would really like to download Poison by Alice Cooper. I don't see how foreign language songs are available in our store, but we can't download English songs that are only available in other regions.

On that note, Perro Traidor and Augen Auf are fun foreign language songs that I did download and try out.

finally got my copy in the mail today, and it does not seem to support my rockband mic.

how much are used mics at places like GS / GC?

We downloaded 99 Luftballoons. Big mistake.

Finally played it. Sucks that I can only buy 15 songs at once, but I'm downloading 15 songs right now.

Took me a little time to get use to it on PS3, but I absolutely love it. Easier to sing to the songs compared to Karaoke Revolution.

Got my copy today and I've been spending all my time looking at community videos. Any find anything good out there?

I've seen CheapyD, Jeff Gerstmann, Lara Croft, a storm trooper, a ghostbuster, Jack Sparrow, and some other good videos.

Was that ghostbuster Greg Miller from IGN?

Don't really read IGN much, so I don't know.

Oh alright, the community features in this game a very interesting. Might just pick this one up (if I find a deal) but there's no way in hell I'm posting vids of myself singing
