Electronic Arts will unleash their pre-order campaign for the upcoming title, The Simpsons Game. Four of the biggest game retailers (GameStop, Wal-Mart, Target and Best Buy) will each have an exclusive, limited edition The Simpsons Game Parody Poster for early customers. Each Poster is representative of an in-game parody featured in the new title. In addition, each retailer will have a specifically created cheat code printed on the back of the game posters to open some of the unlockable content in the game. These are all while supplies last.
During a recent Sony event in Chicago, the focus of which was SingStar for the PlayStation 3, GameSpot had an opportunity to spend some time with SingStar 80's and SingStar Amped for the PlayStation 2. Sony makes no secret of the fact that the upcoming games don't add new features to the formula already established in the "Pop" and "Rocks!" editions, they're song packs, each boasting 30 tracks for you to sing along to.
Give it up for Southampton, UK. About 50 brave souls will sing every SingStar song on the PS2 and PS3 discs in the order in which they were released. All of them. One after the other. Non-stop.
