The phone-as-microphone is enabled by Sony’s new PlayLink app, which is a major improvement over having the buy a separate mic just to use for the game, as was the case with versions of the game on previous platforms. Just about the only differences are that a) you get to pretend your phone is a microphone, rather than some other household item, and b) you get points for singing well.Īdmittedly, these are fairly big differences, depending on your point of view. As my wife constantly reminded me during our time playing it, you’d basically get the same experience singing along to the radio or music videos.

Games like SingStar and Just Sing exist in a weird spot, if you think about it.
