SingStar Rocks! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

~Lucian~ · 03-13-2006, 03:02 PM

Hey all. I don't know if you've heard of singstar (i think it's mainly a european and australaisian thing, but correct me if i'm wrong) but it's the microphone equivalent to ddr, instead of dancing, you're singing (obviously) The newest release in the franchise is going to be called singstar rocks! and at this stage I'm becoming quite excited about the whole thing.

Anyways, I've found 2 tracklistings for the new game one of which features quite a few kiwi and australian artist.. I'm wondering which is the actual tracklist or if there are 2 seperate ones. At any rate it'd be good to know what ya'll think of them too. Chances are if you're from the states then you won't have heard of a few of even half of these bands but they're still quite rocking.

I'm in a band so I can sing songs for real. Not that I sound good though. This game sounds basically like karoake. How does the game know if you're singing correctly?

It basically is karaoke, for your PS2.
The game judges the frequency of your voice and matches it against horizontal lines which appear on the screen. You can be in any octave as long as you have the right note. It doesn't attempt to judge the words you're saying. Yes the game has been played by ignoring the lyrics and singing "penis" repeatedly. Yes it was worth it.

Track list looks pretty awesome. I don't think this is around in Canada, unless it's actually Kareoke (sp?) Revolution.

Zyr · 03-20-2006, 02:53 AM

Kareoke Revolution is something different. It has dancing as well.

Wingless · 03-20-2006, 11:27 AM

The dancing is optional, though.
