Just Dance 2

Reasons I love this game: 1. It has professionally choreographed dances to different types of popular songs from all genres and ages. If you spend enough time on each one, you will master the dance and actually improve your real life dancing skills. 2. The variety of the songs is perfect! I love all types of dance, am easily bored, and have not been bored for one second with this game. It has songs from the 20s-present, including tribal music and bollywood. I have seen people disagree with the inclusion of those types of music and I really hope the video game designers don't listen to them with regard to future versions. The tribal dances are my favorite (and they are also the best cardio!) I would be very bored if the dances were only the top 40 that play on KISS. How boring would that be?! I enjoy the variety of the dances. 3. Its equally fun by yourself, with a party of 8, or as a daily workout. 4. Rather that becoming less fun as you play it, your enjoyment stays the same or improves because you actually learn the dance and are performing a dance each time. 5. It's a good workout, albeit less good than most people think it is: a friend of mine actually wears a device that counts calories based on her skin temp, sweat rate, heart rate, and movement. It said she only burned 190 calories in half an hour with this. That sounds about right, based on the face that 30 minutes of difficult running burns about 300 calories. As with most activities, this doesn't burn as many calories as you'd think. The thing is, the it is so much fun that you will be much more inspired to do it than run and to do it for longer than running, so it equals out. 6. It's a very inexpensive version of zumba with better music that you can do in your living room while picking the songs. 7. It lets you go right into playing the game. You don't have to win anything or do anything. Just open up the package and start dancing to the tracks. What I don't like about the game: 1. The controls are not very accurate. I have scored perfects on songs that I know I wasn't dancing perfectly to and scored constant "okay"s on ones that I was. This is a small inconvenience, as I am a very competitive person. 2. It doesn't let you set up a song list and takes a long time to load between songs. ^^^ These are recommendations for the creators and do not greatly distract from the fun of the game. I highly recommend it to everyone and have already bought two friends this game for Christmas. PS I am a nearly 30 year old woman who generally thinks video games are a waste of time.

One of the things I like about the Wii game console is the fact that it provides the potential to get people up and moving, rather than simply sitting and operating simple controls with their fingers while staring stupidly at a TV screen. I bought "Just Dance 2" for a few reasons: 1. To get more exercise myself 2. To hopefully get my stepson and my step-granddaughter up and moving and exercising more 3. To provide a form of entertainment that is really fun, as well as interactive This game succeeds at all these! While I do have to admit that I am a generation or two older than most of these songs are intended for, there are a few that I can relate to and provide more than enough aerobic bouncing and moving to work up a sweat! When my 11 year old stepson visited the first weekend I had this game, and he was tempted to turn on Nickalodeon and simply veg out AGAIN, I suggested he take a look at this game. He didn't want to stop playing it all weekend!! He was up and moving and dancing as much as he could! And when his dad wouldn't play with him, my stepson and I had "dance battles" and played "Simon Says." This kid is a total video game junkie, and overweight to boot, so it made his dad and I so happy to see him so excited about moving!! The game itself is fairly basic, though admittedly I don't think I've explored all the options, yet. The dances to the songs seem difficult, but really they are fairly easy to follow - the real trick is to add "finesse" to them! There are several different ways multiples of people can play: Classic (simply dancing along to the songs), Duet, Simon Says (individuals are provided with instructions to either stop, clap, or spin at various times during thier portion of the dance). I can see where, eventually, this game might get old and a bit boring. Once one has mastered the dances or is bored with the songs, the game will no longer be played. But, is that really any different than any other video game on the market? And, I would suspect UBI Soft will develop a Just Dance 3 by then, yes? My only wish, and I'm not sure how sucessful this would be, is to make these games with music geared toward certain genres. For example: Classic Rock, Country, Jazz. A lot of the songs on this game are ones I'm not familar with at all, are not of my generation, and I feel as though I'm simply following the moves. That leaves me with perhaps 5 songs that I can really get into. If there were dance video games with specific genres then I could have the ability to have truly 30 - 40 songs available to me, and that might make the video game last longer. However, ANYTHING that gets my overweight stepson and overweight step-granddaughter up and moving - and enjoying it - is deserving of 5 stars +++!!

It was good. My kids and I enjoyed it.

Creo que es un buen título sí aún se cuenta con un wii o wii u, aunque las compras de canciones en línea ya no están disponibles (debido a que se terminó su soporte por parte de nintendo).

GREAT selection of songs. I bought this game thinking there was a dozen good songs on there, but turns out the majority of the songs are amazing, fun, and songs everybody have heard here and there. Really fun! Great workout in the winter!

Le jeux à l'aire bien. Mais surprise surprise, tarce de doigts et rayure sur le CD du jeux. Je l'ai pris en occasion mais ça aurait été bien, de faire un effort avec l'entretien des affaires qu'on vend. Je constate avec ravie que le CD ne marche pas. Franchement je suis ravie d'avoir jeté mon argent par la fenêtre.

So far so good.
