"SingStar goes retro, and we're loving it."

The Good: All our favourites from the past are coming back out to play.

The Bad: Seemingly no new or different gameplay aspects. Seems to be more of the same SingStar goodness.

The Ugly: You may make yourself look like an idiot in front of all your mates.
