Singstar PS3 has finally got a release date and the girls and gay gamers out there can rejoice, as it’s a pre-Xmas one, with Sony’s next gen karaoke machine being on the shelf December 7th.

In case you're unaware, the PS3 version comes replete with support for SingStore (iTunes for Singstar apparently) and MySingStore Online - a community 'space'.

Sony will be promoting the title via dedicated ‘Singstar Studio’ pods at the 02 arena in London and in other ways that includes a social networking site beloved of a former Australian media mogul who already gets enough publicity.

SPOnG carried out a short survey last night of random straight men at Birmingham's Omega Sektor gaming centre - as we were being asked by some girls if we wanted to play Singstar. None of those present admitted to ever having played any Singstar game before.

Sounds a tad on the repressed side to SPOnG - there's lots of fun to be had in singing along to The Scissor Sisters and Britney... time for the industry to bloody well lighten up. Bitches.
