SingStar: Back to the 80s

About

SingStar: Back to the 80s lets you belt out classic 80s hits with a focus on pitch and timing. Using a microphone, players earn points by matching notes accurately in real time. Lyrics aren't judged for word choice or vocal range only the technical execution matters. The track list covers major acts from the decade while the SingStore offers extra downloads for expanding the playlist. Single or multiple players can take turns in solo or group sessions turning living rooms into retro rock shows. This entry in the long-running series leans fully into the formula that made it popular. The lack of modern twists keeps it simple and familiar which works well for casual singalongs. Community feedback shows steady interest with over 2 million copies sold across the SingStar line by 2013. While it won't convert non-singers the dedicated 80s music fanbase finds value in the extensive catalog. The co-op mode adds replayability for friends looking to test their harmony skills without pretension.
