Description:
Under the license from FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, joint owners of the blockbuster reality entertainment format as seen on FOX, Codemasters will launch an American Idol video game this fall for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and PC.

American Idol will be a music-based rhythm-action game, allowing players to create, style, train a character and compete as a singer. Each virtual contestant will then choose from more than 40 “top-ten” music tracks to perform for the judges. To ensure the American Idol game experience is truly authentic, Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul will be featured as computer generated characters, complete with their colorful commentary.
