Yoostar2 brings the magic and fun of Hollywood to your living room. Using your Kinect for Xbox 360 or your Playstation Eye, you can insert yourself into famous movie and TV scenes, starring alongside or in place of your favourite actors. Perform the lines as written, or improvise and deliver your own improvisation. After you’ve finished, Yoostar scores your performance, and you can upload your scene to Yoostar2’s in-game social portal, PS Network, Xbox 360 Live, Yoostar.com and Facebook. Yoostar2 is a fantastic party game that will appeal to both hardcore and casual players.
