During a recent Sony event in Chicago, the focus of which was SingStar for the PlayStation 3, we had an opportunity to spend some time with SingStar 80's and SingStar Amped for the PlayStation 2. Sony makes no secret of the fact that the upcoming games don't add new features to the formula already established in the "Pop" and "Rocks!" editions, they're song packs, each boasting 30 tracks for you to sing along to.
