SingStar: Motown is a karaoke game which includes, with few exceptions, classic Motown songs from the 1960s and 1970s. There are no changes to the gameplay formula: player(s) sing into a microphone and the game gives points based on the performance. The only basis of assessment is if the correct note is hit with the correct timeing; the sung words or octave does not play into the result. The PS3 version allows access to the SingStore, an online shop for downloading additional songs.
