A fun sufficient Karaoke game that falls flat in singular player mode. : Singstar Rocks Bundle (w/ microphone)
This would be a great game, had Konami already not released five (six when the American Idol one comes out) good Karaoke games for the Ps2. You would think that when releasing this game in 2006, Sony would look at its competition and make it equal or better. They did not. I apologize that so much of the review is comparing it to the Karaoke Revolution series, but it's a natural comparison, and unfortunate for Singstar Rocks, as Sr is by far an inferior product.
I have a lot of the same complaints as others. There are no unlockables. Even though Kr's strange costumes are seldom used in our household, it's nice to see things being unlocked as you sing more and better. Singstar Rocks does not do this.
The big thing is with the Ps2 having two acceptable Usb ports, why they would utilize the mini to Usb adapter. This renders the mics useless to the Kr games. If they're worried about being able to use an EyeToy simultaneously to two mics, maybe they should have included a Usb mini hub instead. It infuriates me that with all the decent Usb mics on the market that Sony again would go possession (of sorts).
Another complaint is the lack of adjustments. In song, Kr (dating back to the original) allows you to adjust the vocals, mic and music. Singstar Rocks has only a master volume that doesn't see to do much.
It's also unfortunate that Sony stuck with only Sony artists, as they are missing out on a ton of others. The song option is very random due to this and a merge are very strange selections to have on a sing along disc. There are complicated songs on here that do not make a lot of sense. Of all the Rolling Stones catalog, why would Forty Licks' "Paint it Black" be the one to appear. Lame!
In a vacuum, the game is fun, but its song selection, lack of options and its possession options all make it fall extremely short to any of the other Karaoke Revolution. Don't waste your time with this one. Get *any* of the Kr series over this one.
