still, the ps3 comunicating nicely with cellphone/psp/camera(they do make cameras too, rihgt?) I think could make it into a livingroom comfy computer.
On the Singstar-rock music games: I used term electronic music because I didn't know how else to refer to exaclty the types of music you pointed out as popular (Kanye West, 50 Cent, Timbaland, Beyonce, etc.) electronic rhythm based music with vocals as it's centerpiece. These popular music songs would be hard to make into a guitar hero/rock band piece, but they fit great into Singstar, making it a possibility for building not as much a game but a music video distribution system with the plus of karaoke. I think that has the potential to become a unimaginably HUGE market. Now I'm a person who grew up on Dream Theater, No doubt loving Explosions in the Sky, 30 Seconds to Mars, ... my point being I'm a 'rock' kinda person myself but to caputure the bulk of the population, the true casual market games that can do the music played in clubs are needed, and for that Singstar I see the closest and with already a brand name and infrastructure in the works.
