US and UK Singstar stores merge photo

Anyone out there Singstar'n? I know they're all about it in the UK, but the PS3 titles are bargain bin babies these days around these parts. It's not a bad game, but I guess it just hasn't caught on here as well as it did over there.

If you are a Singstar player, you might be interested to hear that Sony has merged the UK and US Singstar stores. GamesIndustry says that they're no longer split, and now the US store has the songs they previously could not access from Universal's catalog. Some upcoming updates will bring the earlier Europe-only content here. Sony says that the first of these will contain 64 tracks from artists like Rihanna, Black Eyed Peas and Lady Gaga.

Yeah, I read about this earlier... and it's nice that the American/Canadian store will finally get many of the songs that have long been available in the European store.

The game is fun. It's not really a game, more of an activity, but it's a really great way to pass a lazy Sunday afternoon! :)

The deal with Universal is huge for me considering that a lot of the bands I like are signed on with them. Also, Sum 41 song pack FTW!!

Now they just need to provide an easy way to re-download your songs onto a new PS3 and they'll be set.
