Get the party started with SingStar Party; Sony London's second iteration of its popular karaoke-inspired vocals game developed exclusively for the PlayStation 2. Though gameplay is nearly identical to the previous installment (players are judged on their ability to sing with the correct tone, rhythm, and pitch), a host of new features populate this sequel as well. Boasting more than 30 new tracks and the ability to import 30 more from the original SingStar, the game also supports an all-new competitive Duet Mode, EyeToy compatibility, and a Shuffle Token feature for a more personalized selection of theme songs. Available only in the European territories.
The first "catch up" Japanese Dance Dance Revolution title. Most of the songlist consists of new Konami originals from Dance Dance Revolution ULTRAMIX and Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME CS (America), along with a few new licenses, some of the licenses from Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME CS (America), some old Konami original DDR songs, and two new KONAMI originals. Song list as a result has a large emphasis on Bemani crossovers than most Japanese CS DDR releases. Of the 55 Konami originals in DDR FESTIVAL, only 19 are original DDR songs/original remixes. Also, it is the only Japanese DDR without Dancemania licenses, hence no Dancemania advertisement is featured in the attract mode.
Get On Da Mic requires the use of the same kinds of microphones also used with the Karaoke Revolution games. A hand-held karaoke microphone made by Logitech is available in a bundle with the game and is also sold separately; Logitech also sells a microphone headset. The game is also EyeToy compatible, and it censors out profanity.
Unlike the many other singing games available for the PlayStation 2, this game focuses exclusively on Hip-Hop songs.
