A new breed of social gaming for consoles and an ideal party game, Yoostar 2 , brings the magic and fun of Hollywood to living rooms everywhere.  Using the magic of Kinect for Xbox 360 or the PlayStation ^®Eye, players insert themselves into famous movie and TV scenes, starring alongside or in place of their favorite actors.  Perform the lines as written in English, Spanish, French, Italian or German, or “flip the script” and deliver a personalized improvisation.  Yoostar 2 then scores the performance and lets players upload the scene to Facebook, Twitter, Yoostar 2’s in-game social portal on Xbox LIVE ^® online entertainment network and PlayStation Network, or Yoostar.com.

Fans can also experience the game from a whole new perspective on Facebook’s Yoostar Playground, a completely new kind of social game where players can earn Badges and “Yoobucks” by participating in the community and completing challenges.  View, rate, comment and award other videos and share your own.  Create Movie Mashups by combining multiple scenes together to create mini movies, and enter contests to win cash and prizes by creating and uploading new scenes.  Then watch as your Fame points rise on both the video game and Facebook as you rise from a struggling actor to an A-list celebrity.

Individual scenes purchased on the Yoostore are priced at $2, while 3-clip and 5-clip packs are priced at $5 and $7, respectively.  Yoostar 2 is currently available at all leading retail outlets throughout North America for an MSRP of $49.99.  Yoostar Playground is live on Facebook and can be played for free at http://apps.facebook.com/yoostarplayground/.  For more information on Yoostar 2 , please visit www.Yoostar.com.
