Darkstation reports:
''With each of my reviews for Singstar titles I have to say I look at it in a 50/50 perspective. The songs that are chosen versus any new modes to play in. This is a game with nothing much in terms of new modes, except the duet mode, which as you guessed it, allows you to sing with a friend. Other than that all of the modes of previous games are remains intact and work great.
The mechanics that have made the Singstar titles infamous over the years return as well in this game and work just as well as before. If you have never played one of these titles then you're in for a treat. The simple idea behind the game is that you want to sing the song in tune and in the right melody and pitch. If I am misusing the musical terms it's because I am not musically gifted, and Singstar reminds me of it each time it comes out. However that doesn't make it any less enjoyable.''

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."
