GAME REVIEW: Singstar ABBA
For PlayStation 3, rated G, RRP $69.95 (game only) or $119.95 (with microphones)
The whole Singstar thing is one of those concepts you either love or hate: an in-home karaoke game where you get rated on how good (or bad) you are.
The game can be played solo or you can have fun with your family and friends. Or torment them, if that’s your preference.
Swedish pop sensation ABBA might not have recorded a new album since 1981 but the band’s music is still out there and still popular with young and old. I went to the ABBA Mania tribute show in Australia last month and was surprised to see fans ranging in age from toddlers to grey-haired old buggers boogy-ing in the aisles.
In light of that, it should come as no surprise that this has been released. And even less of a surprise that it’s proved incredibly popular with Singstar fans.
With more than 20 of the band’s best songs, this one will keep the ABBA fans occupied for hours.
