May 3, 2011 - Yoostar today announced a ton of cool new downloadable content available this month. While not everything on the list is family friendly, there are plenty of our favorites here that make these new scenes worth checking out for families who own YooStar 2. As we mention in our Yoostar 2 Report Card, this game does a great job of warning families about inappropriate content, so we feel safe recommending it for families to play with younger kids.
From The Big Lebowski to The Princess Bride, and with a little Three Amigos and Apollo 1 thrown in, there are some great new scenes now available for Yoostar 2.

Yoostar 2 is a console game for the Kinect for Xbox 360 and the PlayStation® 3 computer entertainment system utilizing the PlayStation®Eye that is played on the user’s television and connects to the Internet. It brings the magic and fun of Hollywood sets to living rooms everywhere. Yoostar 2 makes it possible for players to insert themselves into famous movie and TV scenes, starring alongside, or in place of, their favorite actors. Players choose scenes from a wide variety of movie genres; a built-in teleprompter displays actor’s lines in English, Spanish, French, Italian, or German; an outline of the original actor’s body shows players where to position themselves before the camera rolls. For added fun, performers can even toss the script and improvise.
Yoostar Playground is a free Facebook game and owning the console game is not required. Players rate, share, comment on, and “mash-up” performances produced by Yoostar 2 console game performers. In-game activities earn points that help players grow from struggling actors to A-list celebrities. As players gain “fame,” they are awarded Badges and paid Yoobucks. Yoobucks can be used for power ups and boosts that accelerate achievements in both Yoostar Playground and Yoostar 2.
The Yoostar Network is a growing web of interconnected social networks that link Yoostar performers across Facebook user pages, Yoostar Playground, Twitter, Yoostar.com, Xbox LIVE, PlayStation Network and YouTube. The goal of the Yoostar Network is to make it easy to connect with anyone interested in social performance games regardless of where their net-presence resides.
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.
