We Sing Down Under is a 2011 karaoke game part of the We Sing family of games, developed by French studio Le Cortex. The game features 100% Australian artists and is set to only be released in the Australian PAL territory.[2]

Gameplay

The gameplay is similar to the SingStar set of video games. Players are required to sing along with music in order to score points, matching pitch and rhythm. The game has anticheat technology whereby tapping or humming will register on the screen but no points will be awarded. We Sing Down Under also contains the addition of 'Star Notes' that allow the player to score even more points by matching the pitch and rhythm of certain hard to score parts of songs.
