Dave Ranyard, the Game Director for SingStar, recently announced a fairly huge patch for the karaoke-infused rhythm title on the European PlayStation Blog. See, it would have to pretty large in order to completely encompass the game's previous patch, which apparently broke a lot of things.
The game's last patch, software update 4.20, is apparently capable of deleting purchased songs off the system's hard drive, crashing the game in the middle of those songs or generally corrupting your media files. Fortunately, SingStar v4.30 is currently undergoing QA testing, and is targeted for a December 1 release. Just in time for the holidays, SingStar owners will receive the gift of not having their stuff deleted any more. Or, as we like to call it, the gift that keeps on giving.

Sounds good. Maybe they'll work on getting songs people actually want to sing in the SingStore next.

I prefer the gift that keeps taking away.

Play Singstar. Haven't had an issue with the latest patch whatsoever.

It's just joystiq an their usual ret@rded selfs making a mountain out of a molehill.
All it takes is one person to email some bad PS3 news in (true or not), and they jump on it like rabid dogs. At the same time, they bury anything bad about the problems with the American console..
It's all rather pathetic. Not nearly as bad as those that can't see throu it thou.

Played SingStar for a few hours yesterday evening (while re-downloading all songs on my shiny new PS3 Slim :)) and had no problems.
