SingStar Country is a good SingStar game. Of course, if you hate country music, you'll hate this disc, but for those out there who dig the story-driven lyrics and rhymes of Nashville, this is a quality sampling of songs. Still, the franchise is looking old. The menus are fuzzy, the features are lacking, and there's only so much you can do with the PlayStation 2. Compared to the PlayStation 3 version of the franchise and the feature-laden Karaoke Revolution PS2 titles, SingStar on the PlayStation 2 is showing its age.

What a spectacular achievement, especially since you guys have only released 27 titles in 5 years.
Wow what a fanboyish comment go take them somewhere else please. This is great news for them and shows its a popular franchise.
HOLY CRAP!that's a lot!
Also R&C surpassed 25 million few weeks ago
GT is at around 53 million
I think Buzz! is also pretty big
nice to see Sony got some big franchise,they are really important
It's weird, you don't think much of these franchises, see nothing about their sales, and yet...
I remember playing it in Best Buy and I thought it was a very good game. Unfortunately, people in my house don't like to sing openly...no matter what so there was no need to buy it.
yeah two black dudes singing a Britney spears song will not work
411mania talks about this week's game releases. Highlights include MagnaCarta II, Tales of VS., SingStar Queen, and Hearts of Iron III.
On Magna Carta II, 411mania writes: "Even though the title indicates that this is the second MagnaCarta game, it is actually the third in the series, the first being for the PC and the second for the PS2. Unfortunately, Atlus' release of the PS2 sequel a few years ago wasn't very well received - some were impressed with the visuals and a lot of people liked the story, but many found the combat system off and most agreed that the voicework was bad. Luckily, MagnaCarta II features a whole new cast of characters, a new storyline, and a different fighting system, so knowledge of the previous games are not necessary."
Aww it's just the import version of Magna Carta II I thought they would have brought it out here already :(.
GamesRadar writes: "There's an overwhelming number of user videos on SingStar's SingStore and trying to watch them all would be stupidly impractical. So it kind of makes sense that, when browsing the karaoke clips, most people head stright for the videos that have earned top billing with a five-star rating."
