When it comes to Singstar, Sony just keep pulling the hits out of the bag and packing them firmly on yet another classic disc, Boy Bands vs Girl Bands is probably one of the best yet and is one I would highly recommend to all of the crooners out there.

As much as I’d like to knock it down to a 3 for simply including Westlife, if these are you favourite songs, then you’ll be pleased to know that the game takes the refined SingStar party experience and lets you sing them.

Mmmbop might make your insides shrivel, but leave your muso pride at the door and this shiny pop-package will provide you with hours of embarassing fun. [Dec 2008, p.118]

Rather than looking at what isn't in SingStar Boybands vs Girlbands, you can't deny the strength of the track list on offer. This is what Sony should do more of, genre-specific games rather than the eclectic mishmash of songs that's plaguing the PS3 titles right now.

A warning shouldn't be needed, but if the sounds of Busted make you want to weep, then steer clear of this one. [Christmas 2008, p.85]

For those of us who worship Westlife, miss Mel & Kim and are gay for Girls Aloud, this is a great purchase.

Jolt Online Gaming UK
This had the potential to be a must-have compilation, but some weak song selections, an unbalanced band presence, the complete absence of certain bands including Take That and a couple of thematic gaffes leaves it a much weaker prospect than it should have been.
