SingStar ‘80s (PlayStation 2, 2007)

SingStar ‘80s is a full-blown karaoke time warp back to big hair, neon lights, and synths that slap. Released in 2007 by Sony Computer Entertainment, this PS2 classic turns your living room into an ‘80s concert you probably shouldn’t be headlining — but will anyway. It’s cheesy, loud, and absolutely glorious, loaded with hits that’ll have you singing your heart out like it’s 1985 all over again.

The game features a killer playlist of real music videos from the decade of excess — think Duran Duran, Wham!, Blondie, The Cure, and more. Whether you’re belting out “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” or dramatically mumbling through “Don’t You (Forget About Me),” SingStar ‘80s nails the vibe. The pitch detection system keeps things competitive without making you feel like you’re getting roasted by a computer, and the multiplayer duets are pure party gold.

The interface is slick and easy to use, complete with those classic PS2 menus that scream nostalgia. Plug in the microphones, pick a song, and embarrass yourself in front of friends — just like the good old days. Bonus points if someone shows up dressed like they just walked off the set of an MTV music video.

If you love the decade of glam, synthpop, and questionable fashion choices, SingStar ‘80s is your ticket to time-traveling karaoke glory. Buy retro games on Retro Games eXchange and get ready to sing, shout, and totally shred your vocal cords to the best decade in music history.
