I promised you exciting news, so here it is! SingStar, the ultimate competitive singing game for PlayStation 3, will now be available to everyone in SCE Europe territories (as well as Australia and New Zealand) as a free download straight from the XMB.

Yes, that’s right, no more need to slot in a disc to get that party started. Simply install SingStar from the XMB and you will be able to start singing in no time, share your performances with the community and visit the SingStore to get hold of more great tracks for your collection. (more…)

Hi all, what’s up?

We’re back once again with the SingStore update and this week we have all the songs from the ‘Brit Girls’ song pack as singles for you. Don’t forget, if you suddenly fancy all five of them, it’s much easier (one download) and a little cheaper to get them as part of the song pack.

Another perk of a song pack is of course the medley, which we include in all our song packs where possible and you certainly can’t get hold of anywhere else.

Hello, I hope you’re all enjoying the late summer sunshine as much as we are here at SingStar HQ. The SingStore update is a short and sweet one this week but it’s got one of my favourite dancey songs ever in it. If you have never heard of it, you should definitely check out The Shamen’s ‘Move Any Mountain’. It’s very catchy, I promise.

Did anyone guess the Top 3 songs for August right the other week? Well, here’s the full SingStore Top 20 so you can check whether you were spot on or a little off the mark:

We had a great time at gamescom with DanceStar Party Hits a couple of weeks ago so thanks to everyone who popped by to have a little dance with us. If you missed us there, make sure you head over to the website where you can browse through the full tracklist and check out all the great features of the game.

This week’s SingStore update features new songs by P!nk, John Farnham and *NSYNC, plus all the singles from the ’80s Part 4 and Tina Turner song packs. I bet that Toto’s ‘Africa’ will be making an appearance on quite a few PS3s this weekend…

On your marks! Get set! Go…

Who’s been watching the games, then? I must say, the atmosphere in London has been great so far and everyone is getting right into the spirit of things. Good luck to all your respective teams this week.

But just because sport is everywhere right now, that doesn’t mean you have to refrain from entering into the odd competition yourself. In fact, what better way to celebrate a few gold medals than earning some trophies of your own with SingStar? (Plus it’s a lot less sweaty.) You can always check out our games-related lists in the Charts section if you need some inspiration.

This week’s update features great tracks by Skunk Anansie, Chris Brown, The Saturdays, Carly Rae Jepsen and the B-52′s, all of which are brand new additions to the SingStore. Gold!
