EyeToy Creators Try PS2 Karaoke With SingStar

Thanks to the Gaming-Age forum regulars for pointing to a French site showing new pictures of Sony's PlayStation 2 karaoke title, SingStar. Among the details for the USB-microphone bundled game is the fact "there'll be [multiple] versions of the game" with different songs released simultaneously, including SingStar Pop and SingStar Classics - there are detailed tracklistings on the same site. The game also "recognizes your pitch, tone and rhythm" much like Harmonix/Konami's Karaoke Revolution, and an earlier preview notes: "Plug in an [USB camera] EyeToy and you'll even be able to view your own pained facial expressions [in-game]." The game, developed by EyeToy creators Sony London Studio, is due for European release in March 2004, with its Stateside debut as yet unconfirmed.
