By Roger Altizer, About.com

Konami Digital Entertainment – America, a division of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today revealed 35 all-new chart-topping songs included in Karaoke Revolution Volume 2. Making use of any PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system headset/microphone peripheral and the game’s proprietary voice recognition technology, which rates the pitch and rhythm of the player’s vocals, Karaoke Revolution Volume 2 is set to be the hit of summer parties nationwide.

The 35 new instantly-recognizable tunes put the focus right where it should be - the music. Featuring some of the biggest karaoke club classics such as “I Will Survive,” “Sweet Home Alabama” and “We Are Family,” as well as today’s top hits “Toxic,” “The First Cut is the Deepest” and “Genie in a Bottle,” fans will have plenty to sing about.

Also new is the Medley Mode where players can link up to five song clips together and perform them all in rapid-fire succession for a unique karaoke experience. The game ships this July for the PlayStation 2.
