  • Abstract:  The unfettered compulsion to shake what my mother gave me can be traced back to the days of In Living Color. As a hyperactive third grader with a penchant for hamming it up, I had no shame publicly recreating the carefully choreographed moves of the Fl...

  • Dance Central is great fun, it gets you moving, and it's absolutely perfect for parties. Although it's disappointing to see so few features and unlocks included, the actual song selection, dance routines, and the accuracy of the Kinect implementation i...

  • Easy to navigate menus; good progression from beginner to expert; choreography deconstructed into basic, discreet movements that anyone can perform.
  • Make sure you’ve got lots of room to move; people living in postagestamp apartments may have to play elsewhere.
  • Just as Harmonix empowered everyone to play the music they love, now they’ve given us all a reason to get up and dance to it. In Break It Down, the complete choreography is split into three or four sections of three or four moves each. You prac...

  • Abstract:  You might be thinking "not another dance game on the XBox 360 Kinect"? I was actually in the same boat because this new gaming device has a plethora of dancing games available for it. But Dance Central is actually a head above the rest and I'm guessing...

  • Physically challenging, wide music selection, great party game, you can turn off the freestyle camera that records your most embarrassing movements
  • Physically challenging, persnickety menu select system, tedious tutorial system, the sparkly butterfly mode itself cannot be turned off
  • Dance Central asks a lot of you as a player. Not only do you have to get up off your couch, somehow create six to eight feet of space in your living room for Kinect to register your coordinated flailing as "dance moves" and actually dance, you also have t...

  • Abstract:  I haven’t felt this embarrassed or self conscious playing a video game since I first picked up a SingStar microphone many, many years ago. I thought I had purged myself of all inhibitions: park me in front of a console, place a drink in my hand, and I’...
