1. Do singstar wireless microphones work with Sing It games?

Yes

2. Can you use the PS3 camera in Sing It games?

Think so, not sure

3. What does the camera do in Singstar games?

takes pictures and videos
You can then upload pictures and videos on-line for others to see.


4. Are the Singstar videos too old for 5 & 7 year olds?

My daughter is 5 and loves singstar

5. Can you download singstar songs without buying the game?

No, you 'll need a Singstar game (any one) to access the singstar store to download and play them

Early responses would help,

1. Do singstar wireless microphones work with Sing It games?
The wired mics worked with Sing It, however I'm not sure about the wireless

2. Can you use the PS3 camera in Sing It games?
Yes

3. What does the camera do in Singstar games?
Allows you to record video (mainly of choruses) and take snapshots

4. Are the Singstar videos too old for 5 & 7 year olds?
There are no explicit videos, my 4 and 7 year olds love playing

5. Can you download singstar songs without buying the game?
No, you have to own one of the games to access the Singstore

Hope this helps!

Very grateful for the replies, thanks.

I bought a sing it game today. Which is the best singstar for young children. Would you recommend the camera?

Re: Sing it & Singstar - Please help

Definitely. The kids will love it, and it's nice to look back on them having a good time. You don't have to publish any content, but kids always get good votes

There is a Singstar Disney which might go down well, it's a PS2 game but you can use it if you own a PS3 game.
Saying that both of my daughters have their favourites, they often choose Karma Chameleon and The Levellers !

Take a look at the Singstar Central link in my sig, it lists the available games etc.

Brilliant. Will go for wireless mics & a camera later.

Can the kids sing together?

Of course, only two players at a time though, so prepare for arguments!
