This is a unique feature for SingStar and makes it possible for fans who have already built up their PS2 SingStar collection to continue enjoying it on PS3. The songs are not saved to the hard drive.
#Ps2 singstar ps3
While playing a SingStar PS3 disc, at the song select screen, hit the button to swap discs and play the songs from the inserted disc. The feature has previously been available on SingStar games for both PlayStation 2 and PLAYSTATION 3, but for the first time owners of SingStar for PS3 will be able to play songs from PS2 discs in their collection.

SingStar track compatibility across PS2 & PS3 is enabled via the Disc Swap feature. We wanted to make sure everyone was up to speed on what the disc feature entailed, so here’s the lowdown from the SingStar development team:
#Ps2 singstar update
You can check out the full details on SingStar PS3 Vol.2, as well get the latest on today’s SingStore update at IGN.Ĭoming out of Leipzig, you may have read about a cool new SingStar PS3 disc swap feature which incorporates the SingStar PS2 library. Yesterday we announced that SingStar PS3 Vol. Having said that I have recently bought a PS3 at the more reasonable $600.Hey everyone, just wanted to give you a quick update on some recent SingStar news. This was the sole reason I did not go out and buy a PS3 at launch.

#Ps2 singstar software
They removed the "emotion" engine chip, which was the PS2 chip from the Euro/Asian version and added a software "emulator" for backwards compatibility instead.Īnd guess what? they still charged the same price for the hacked down Euro/Asian PS3. That's correct, that was a major point of contention between the American/Japanese PS3 vs the European/Asian PS3

It’s a good, fun, non-thinky game that gets lots of people involved. Also, you don’t need to be embarrassed to admit to playing Singstar. Might want to rent and find out first that way, due to the region locking of PS2 software. I cant see you having any issues with buying an AU game and trying to get the disc swap to work – however having said that I don’t have a US machine. To access the US store, create a US profile on your PS3 (like you would to access the US PSN Store), when Singstar loads it will access the US store for you. US songs will work on your AU account and vice versa. A few months ago it was cheaper to get US songs, but now they are only slightly cheaper. If it doesn’t work, I’ll have go and get Singstar Rocks as that had the best songs to date.ĪU prices are 2.45 per song. I doubt it will work, but I still want to try it. Next thing to do is to try loading up a burnt Singstar disc. I didn’t actually try a song as I didn’t have the microphones plugged in, but she works AOK. I only played Ballads on PS3 so my save file is only on the PS3 HDD, but no go with the scores loading. It doesn’t however use your PS2 save file installed on your PS3 to load your song scores, which is annoying. I tried it was an original of Singstar Rock Ballads and it works fine – it even integrates your downloaded songs into the track list Load up a PS3 Singstar, press SELECT on the song selection screen and then follow the prompts on the screen.
