I grew up in the '80's, so I knew I had to have this game. Even if you can't carry a tune, it is so much fun to play. My 6-year-old and 11-year-old daughters love to play it with me.

What else can I say? 80's ROCKED! 80's songs are easy and fun. I really like the duet feature on this disc (also available on the other Singstar discs). If you like Karaoke games and 80's music you will love this.

Great fun for the whole family and friends

We bought this game for my 6 year old daughter--who loves to sing--just to give her a little more challenge and help learn the lyrics to the songs. She's had a blast along with my son (11), the rest of the family and many of our friends. Even though the game seems to let you slide along without knowing the lyrics perfectly but just carrying a tune--or trying--while in easy mode, it does help them learn tone by showing your pitch as sharp or flat while helping learning the lyrics. This helps even the beginner vocalist strive to try again.

Every time we put it in to play we end up adding in players as friends and family pop in. We all get a good laugh and have a good time regardless of whether or your good at singing or not.

I have even noticed vocal improvement with my son in just the past few days playing the game. He wasn't really that interested in singing in the first place. Now he's always asking me or someone else to play.

The actual artists videos are great too!

I am ordering the other three titles for the kids surprise Christmas and to add more variety and songs to appeal to everyone. Hope they plan to add more titles in the future.

My son was happy to get it for Christmas. My high-school years were in the 80's and I love this one the best out of all his SingStar's. We have a great time and making wonderful memories together.

80's lovers must have!

This game is so much fun. I am not really a video game person, but I have all of the singstar games & they are great party games.

There are three different levels (Easy, Medium, Hard). You can sing alone and try to beat high scores.

You can also sing with another person & choose from different game modes:

Duet (you sing different parts & together to get a combined score)
Battle (both sing the whole song & battle for high score)
Pass-the-mic (pretty self-explanatory)

I also like that you can do Freestyle if you just want to do plain karaoke & sing however you want. There is no scoring, but it's good for people who want to go crazy. :D

I love singstar & have all of the ps2 discs. The 80's one probably gets the most play by my family & friends.

The only real drawback with singstar is that their microphones are proprietary. That means you can't use them with other games and you can't use other microphones with singstar.

I hope they keep coming out with more!

For anyone who grew up with this music and likes SingStar, this is a must have. The songs are fantastic and our kids are loving the videos. Fantastic and well worth the money!

This game is a great way to relieve your stress and just relax and have fun. It has so many fun songs that even if you don't take it seriously, you can just have a riot. I enjoyed playing this SingStar so much, that I found myself wanting the entire series. I can't wait to see what versions are going to be manufactured. I absolutely and completely satisfied with this product and feel that everyone will love it.

This game is awesome!

I love to sing, and I especially love the Singstar games. This game is so much fun! I love that you are singing along to the real artists. I played it so much that I broke the microphones, and am now waiting for the 90's version to come out so I can purchase it with the mics. It makes a great party game, and unlike real karaoke, you don't need to be drunk to enjjoy it!

I Love the 80's! This game is awesome!

My husband recently bought me this 80's Sing-Star game for my kids PlayStation 2. The Kids always get games, Me or my husband never do. So we thought this might be fun. I love the 80's its the music i remember most from High School. It's just lots of fun. My boys are still young they have no idea who some of these artist are. Some songs have been remade by new artist that my kids do know. Like the song "Kids of America" was remade by a new singing group of this year called "The Josins Brothers" I could be wrong. Never the less we are all able to have so much fun with this game.

This is like totally rad....

Soooooo much fun!!!! Okay, yes, I am a child of the 80's, but I think anyone would enjoy these songs! I especially love how you get to watch the original music videos while you sing along, which in this case really is hysterical, I mean c'mon.... Duran Duran, Twisted Sister, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper... these videos alone are GOLD! My girls, who are 9 and 11, find them absolutely hilarious! We have American Idol too, which is also a lot of fun, but different.... no videos, lots more judging. However, karaoke lovers be warned, the microphones on these two games are NOT compatible. SingStar requires it's own microphone, and so does American Idol. That is my only complaint because you end up with all sorts of microphones cluttering up space. Playstation should streamline all karaoke games to use the same microphone. Other than that we LOVE this game!!!
