Sega Superstars is a party video game developed by Sonic Team for the PlayStation 2.The game features several minigames based on various Sega titles that are controlled using the EyeToy peripheral.In order to start the game, players have to stand in a position where the orange area won't pick up any movement and select the continue button.[4] As such, the game was developed as a product that would combine the novelty of this accessory with the familiarity of Sega's first-party franchises to extend the long-term viability of the PlayStation 2 console.It was announced in April 2004[5] and exhibited at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3)[6] and Tokyo Game Show events of that same year.
