Hello SingStar fans!
Why is there no video download service yet for PSP and PS3? In a recent interview with Joystiq, Engadget and PS Fanboy, Kaz Hirai noted that they need to provide a unique experience for PlayStation fans to interact with media. "I want to make sure that we are able to put a unique, PlayStation-esque way of presenting the music content, for example, to the PlayStation 3 users. Otherwise, we're just one of them," he commented.

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe sent word to press outlets in Spain of its line up for the rest of the year, including new dates and additional confirmation on previously unconfirmed games. On the list of releases were games like LocoRoco 2 and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, both scheduled for release this calendar year.
French gaming mega-site PlayFrance has posted a list of Sony titles coming out in Europe between now and this October and they've revealed a bunch of unheard of titles. Not only do they confirm that both Loco Roco PSN and GT 5 Prologue are coming out in the next couple months, they also listed three previously unheard of games:
SingStar PS3's European debut is pencilled in for your caterwauling pleasure later this year, with 300 tracks to be made available for download at the game's launch, via the online "SingStore". GamerSquad has the skinny and the current default in-game listings.
SPG is stating that SingStar will be making its debut in PAL territories on July 25, 2007. The karaoke style game will be availabe in two versions: the standalone going for 30.95 Euros and the package including microphones for 61.95 Euros.
Oh. Great. More Singstar. Another chance to bitch and moan about how rubbish the tracklists are, how the rap meter doesn't get enough of a workout, how the song selections are too heavily skewed towards the ladies, etc etc blah blah blah. But looking at this tracklist, which appears to be announcing the imminent arrival of Singstar 90s, Kotaku are just going to shut the fuck up.
