3.0 out of 5 stars Only DDR & Dancing Stage fans need apply... 11 Dec 2010
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
It's been a while since a game has had me torn so much as Dance Evolution. I have grown up with the DDR / Dancing Stage games from Konami, and this is the latest title in the company's Bemani "rhythm action" franchise. Indeed, this game has been so carefully targeted at the Japanese market that it sadly doesn't quite fit into the Western way of gaming...yet.

The big thing that will put most casual dance game players off is the songlist. While the development team (of which legendary DDR music producer Naoki Maeda was a key member) have tried their best to include a range of styles and flavours in the mix, the big thing that they forgot was to include any songs that a casual player would actually recognise. In fact, every song here is either an original track created by Konami for one of the DDR games, or it is an old Eurobeat song (a hyper dance style which has only ever been commercially successful in Japan). So straight away, people will be left wondering what on Earth they are dancing to. Personally, I adore the songlist as it holds a lot of very fond memories of playing the older DDR arcade machines, but it's important to know that this isn't just another vehicle to promote the Lady Gagas and Black Eyed Peas of this world...

As for the gameplay, I'm sure that most people will compare it to it's biggest rival currently, Dance Central. While that game allows you to employ a gentle learning curve, breaking each routine down bit by bit until you have perfected the moves, Dance Evolution throws you straight in at the deep end with barely even an armband to help you float.

4.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this game, you'll probably hate it 14 Feb 2012
By randall
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Basically i love this game. But then again you'll probably hate it. The songs are totally japanesed focused, if you werne't a hard core Dance Dance player the concept of this game will probably elude you. People say its just match the shapes on the screen, yes it is on lite mode. Give it time and get to master level and you'll be close to a heart attack.

If you're a fan of super eurobeat music and like your dance routines you'll love this game. no, it doesnt teach you to dance, no the songs arent ones you will ever have heard of, and no it isnt easy.

If you want a fun game to embarrass / injure your drunk friends with on a friday night this is it. play against an opponent instead of one at a time. play over xbox live with a 10 year old japanese girl who will thrash you.

Spend some time, unlock the harder levels and song packs, dont just stand there tyring to match the ripples and shillouttes without doing the whole dance and enjoy being able to watch your previous attemps dancing in the background next time you go on.

Highly recommend this game

5.0 out of 5 stars Best dance game out there 6 May 2012
By Sophia

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I've played Just Dance 3. I've tried Dance Central 1 & 2. I've played this one and although I feel there is a big limitation of songs on this game - the dancing just feels "right". Rather than copying static cards - this game actually shows you on screen what to do. So you trace the lines with your hands, hit the bubbles, etc. I love this way of dancing - it's easier to follow than static cards. However, these movements won't really teach you any cool dance moves. You might look a bit special but it's fun and to me, that's what's important.

What might bother people is the music selection. There is Club, R&B, Pop & Para Para. None of them are top hits. I think they were just from Konami's music library but in my opinion they are a lot of fun - I would love it if they used top hits you can dance to but the music isn't bad. There also isn't many of them. There's about 20-25 of them. People who are familiar with Japanese Anime & Manga would recognise the kinda genre that is Para Para. If you usually like Anime intros and outros - then I think you would like this genre.

I also think it's a bit too easy. After about a day of playing on it - I could get A on Extreme on some songs whilst eating an ice cream. But it just shows it's a game for everyone - I have only ever got a AA once.

But overall, great game, highly recommend! Unless you're into all that hip hop top hit stuff. If you're in it for top hits then Dance Central/Just Dance is a way to go.

2.0 out of 5 stars For mice with road-drills enthusiasts 6 Jan 2011
By Julie Cutler TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Fun: 2.0 out of 5 stars   
I gave it a fair go. The menus are good and stable (which can be a positive for a kinect title). The game projects your image onto the dance floor, where you join a silver bimbo in making vague wafting gestures to not very exciting music. It would be perfect if there was an academy for "embarrassing dads at weddings" as this would certainly ensure a rigorous standard of dull dancing. Only really aimed at a specific market and not very energetic or exciting. Deux points!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it 25 April 2012
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Any dance themed game you will always get this "not as good as dance central"

This isnt dance central but wow its so much fun, i love this game. It challenging, and its so rewarding to get past a stage, love the music love the feel of the game, works up a sweat tho. Its not a game trying to teach you dance moves its just a fun funky game. I know this game wont be everyones style check out the game play on youtube.

If everyone looking at dance themed game just want it to be like dance central buy dance central, even on just dance 3 everyone says "well its not dance central" seriously, i mean i do like dance central but dont compare every game to it
