This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
SingStar Motown for PlayStation 3
SingStar Motown is a music game for PlayStation 3. SingStar Motown bundles thirty soul and pop recordings from the Motown catalogue on PS3. I Heard It Through the Grapevine, ABC, My Guy, Super Freak, Dancing in the Street and Papa Was a Rollin' Stone range from ballads to party songs. Solo, duet, battle and medleys score pitch and timing. Compatible SingStar microphones plus a USB converter or wireless receiver are required and are not included unless the product title says so. This listing states No Manual and is supplied without a booklet. Songs on disc remain locally playable; SingStore, Voice Control downloads and My SingStar Online are not promised. In each situation you choose the route, equipment and approach that fit best. The physical edition is assessed by its actual product title; digital extras are mentioned only when demonstrably included.
The campaign builds each situation around clear objectives, enemies or obstacles and controls that you gradually learn to master. Difficulty comes from timing, positioning and intelligent use of available resources. Exploring, trying again and choosing another approach often achieve more than haste. The fixed content on the disc therefore matters most. Any network features are mentioned only as historical options, not as services guaranteed to work today.
This PlayStation 3 edition of SingStar Motown was checked separately for controller input, storage, presentation and delivery. The product title remains decisive for a standard or Classics edition and for the explicit No Manual label. Historical network functions are not promised as currently available; the campaign and local content on the disc form the core of this version.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 3 games are European editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
The manual is missing from this copy of SingStar Motown for PlayStation 3. That is why the product title says “No Manual”. You receive the game in its box, without the instruction booklet. This makes the contents clear before you order.
The original printed manual usually contains at least English and often around six European languages. The languages vary by edition; Dutch is not always included. This information describes the original booklet and does not mean that it comes with this copy. A copy with a manual is offered separately when available.
The history of SingStar Motown
London Studio developed SingStar Motown; Sony Computer Entertainment Europe released the European PlayStation 3 version on 18 september 2009. This original release defines which campaign, features and technical characteristics belong to the product page. Later remasters, ports, expansions and services are not silently assigned to the disc. Title, platform and edition were therefore checked separately. This keeps the description tied to what the offered PlayStation 3 disc actually contains.
This physical release preserves a defined version from its original console generation. Later expansions, patches, servers and reissues may have added or changed features, but are not attributed to this disc. Its original design choices and technical limits belong to this edition. Developer, release period and platform were therefore checked separately. Differences in controls, presentation and accessories between consoles are also stated where they affect what can actually be played.
