Bollywood SingStar in development

tidus04 | July 18, 2007 | News | Playstation 3 Company 
Singstar has been a big hit with previous titles all over the world but now plan on taking on the Bollywood scene by producing a Bollywood Singstar game. Not sure on where or when it is going to be released Sony just tell us this is in the works and will be released in the future.
No song and dance as Sony quietly reveals new title in the hit karaoke series.

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, SCEE president David Reeves confirmed "we're doing a Bollywood SingStar".

It is not yet clear if the game is destined for UK shores, or is part of Sony's massive localisation of their Karaoke series, which has been translated into numerous European languages already, with each version containing hits popular to the country of release.

Either way, a Bollywood edition would likely enjoy success wherever it is released.

Next in line in the SingStar series are SingStar 90s on August 3 and later that month SingStar for the PS3, both of which should give the vocal chords a good workout.

      I never knew you was much of a singer Kru =P

      But yeh this is really good that they are producing this product as it is reaching the new market area and espically as there has been no Bollywood games that I have known of before might publisise the whole Bollywood thing more to people.

      You don't say? So am I (Indian) Bollywood ftw! Haha, yeah it's amazing how many outfits they go through...those 3+ hour movies must take quite a while to do. Each have at least 4 songs, too.

      I'll look into this.

      13 Changes in 1 minute... I'm pretty sure we could do it just for fun... and I'm serious they do have that many changes in one minute of the song.
