SingStar Pop Hits, the latest PS2 version in Sony’s increasingly-popular party/karaoke series is due to drop in Europe this coming April, a SCEE-penned press release has just this minute informed us.
The game features an unashamedly populist, some may say cheese-heavy, collection of pop, and indie/rock-lite choons, with ‘highlights’ including:

You Give Me SomethingWhatever your take on Britney’s latest hair-scalping shenanigans in Los Angeles over the weekend, and whatever your take on what makes good music, you have to admit that at some point, at some as-yet-unplanned party in the future, it’s highly likely that you will be blasting out
Baby One More Time after imbibing a sufficient amount of SCL (Strong Continental Lager).
For early adopting cheese-warblers you will also want to watch out for the much-vaunted PS3 version of
SingStar which is set to feature downloadable tracks and online competitions in which you can upload your performances in an ‘online
Pop Idol’ type way.
The future looks bright. Well, it does if you fancy your chances at being the
next Britney or Robbie… maybe not though, eh? Not if it means having to meet Russell Brand.
