Introduction
Welcome to Singstar XMB! Singstar is the Sony exclusive karaoke game that many people overlooked when it came out in 2008. Those people that bought it were greeted with a grind-heavy and near impossible trophy list with trophies like “Grand Celebrity” and “They Really Love Me.” Trying to make Singstar more popular, Sony decided to release a Singstar app with easier trophies and available to anyone in EU on the XMB. I will explain how to get it very soon. You can play Singstar XMB with a disc, or downloaded songs that were purchased from the SingStore. There have been rumors that this will even be ported to the new PS4, so look out for another SingStar trophy list!
If you have any questions about this game please check out the FAQs at the bottom of the guide here.
Walkthrough
Step 0: Get the Peripherals
The game is unplayable without these, so plan ahead to buy the peripherals listed within the roadmap. It is way more cost efficient than the previous one.
Kyo28 has found that Amazon is really good to get cheap microphones. They have great deals with them, since a pair can be less than 7 Dollars/Euros.
Step 1: Easy Trophies
When starting up the game, change your system date and play a song to get Holiday Special, Anniversary Gift and Sing me a love song out of the way. See the trophy description for more details.
Do horrible on a song (under 500 points) and get Low Rider.
Upload a song onto the community to get Concert Debut. - Unobtainable
Go to the community and view 50 pieces of media and rate 10 of them for two more trophies (Channel surfer and Stars in my eyes) - both unobtainable.
Step 2: Skill Trophies
You are simply going for Be number 1, Superstar Quality, Nailed it, and Midas touch.
This version of Singstar has no tricks up its sleeve. These are really basic if you follow my guide. Be sure to do them solo.
Also, to save yourself a lot of trouble, get That’s a rap out of the way alone. Rapping is a broken mess in this game, and can’t be relied on for any trophy.
Step 3: The Rest of the Platinum
The majority of this game, you will be playing in duet mode, multiplayer mode, or leaving your controller on in multiplayer mode. Simply play until you get Gold Rush and Good Vibrations then you are good to use your turbo controller. Be sure to pick up any miscellaneous trophies relating to these modes that are mentioned in the guide.
After your 400th song, if you completed the steps above, the platinum will pop. Congratulations!
**Since there are no turbo controllers for the PS4 at the moment, you must be active to earn this trophy on the PS4**
Step 4: Clean Up
The only trophy that might be tricky if you use a turbo a lot is Rule the stage. If you happen to be unfortunate and have not earned this before you've completed 400 songs, then play the game normally until it pops. Make sure that you have good songs to sing and this step won’t take that long.
