5.0 out of 5 stars WOW - This game & the Kinect are amazing... 16 Dec 2010
By Chardy
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
well I received my copy of Dance Central and from the moment I put it in I was EXCITED!! first and foremost if your quite a lazy person,you prefer games where you can play half heartedly and or cheat... LIKE MYSELF!! then you need to snap out of that ASAP! you'll need full energy, concentraition & patience to really get the most out of this game, as some of the moves are quite complex.

So back to Dance Central - It is very important you set up your Kinect Camera in the correct place to allow you as much room and also to be the most responsive, once you have done this you're ready to play.
The dance central game can be high impact or just a warm up but it definetely gets my heart pumpin and me moving every part of my body tryin to master the moves "Sports bras at the ready ladies". I thought i'd be a pro and went straight to HARD! and came running back to Easy with my tail between my legs...lol; That being said though I love it... and being the impatient type, I get fed up easily with getting the moves wrong, then I simply, take a break and come back and the fun starts all over again.
I think the game was very well thought out, there are various options that help make it easier to learn the dance moves such as Break it down, the mode where you complete short sections of the song, you can also Slow it down, in this mode to really understand the move, or if you feel like you're ready to jump straight in you can. As you play more, additional Difficutly levels, Venues, Outfits and settings become available, and the Music choices and graphic are really engaging.

I give this game 5/5 and the XBOX KINECT a 5/5.
Im the owner of a Wii, Wii Fit Board & Band hero on the WII, and aside from the Band Hero which is literally TONNES of fun the WII does not even COME CLOSE!! to the KINECT - JUST DANCE in comparison on the WII in my oppinion seems like an imitation mared with limitations.
I was so amazed when I realised how the Kinect worked and how responsive it is, No Wands, No Control Pad just "ME"

And i hope you found this helpful ;o)

4.0 out of 5 stars Danced Out! 11 Nov 2010
By Simbad
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
This is an extremely fun game, even if like me you are hopeless at dancing. There is a good range of tracks to choose from and the difficulty levels range well. Unfortunately for me my wife is extremely good at dancing and totally dominates on dance battles even when she is playing hard difficulty and I am on easy. The freestyle dance is funny, where you can bust your own moves and these are played back at high speed. If you are wanting a game to show off the capabilities of Kinect I would recommend this as the tracking is excellent and jumping in and out of the game is quick and easy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Fun Fun and Weightloss too 4 Feb 2011
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I can't give this game enough praise. Good graphics and tunes. The dance moves can be learned peice meal step by step in "Break It Down" with the option to slow down the dancer until yuo get the move.
In "Perform It" you get to dance witht he dancer as the Kinect tracks yuor move and you get scored according to how accurate the move is. I got the game a month ago and i've lost 9 pounds without dieting.
