But in relative terms, it’s a free alternative that functions on par with the branded hardware, so that at least is a bit of a money saver. If you don’t have a mic, you can download the free app on your smartphone that will connect to your active SingStar game and turn it into an additional peripheral, and you’ll be pleased to know that it works just as well as the USB counterparts - you still won’t be able to bloody well hear anything. Crank the volume up on the d-pad all you like, no one will hear your caterwauling, and isn’t that the whole point of karaoke? You can still salvage the party with a handful of decent songs and enough beers, right? You don’t need a bit of software to teach you the meaning of sharing.
I don’t know what the twenty-somethings draped over one another in the fancy new menus are doing, but judging by the absence of party based musical antics, I’ll tell you what - it’s not singing. Online Battle Mode is a relic of the past as well, and the feature has been retroactively patched out from the free PS3 app in case you had any funny ideas about trying to actually engage with other human beings and have a bit of a laugh. Everything that made SingStar a party affair has vanished Pass the Mic, Duets, Medleys - even the difficulty settings - they’ve all been dumped in favour of a basic 1 to 2-player singalong. But the biggest kick in the teeth is the fact that all of the party features have been unceremoniously stripped away.
