My daughter likes the new songs, but complains that it's hard to maneuver through the graphics. She plays it but complains about it every time. Glad I bought it at a big discount.

Been a huge fan of jd series.. But I have to say, the interface is awful and there is no option of being able to use the controller.. I hate it! It does take forever to get to a song you want! Jd 3 were able to use the controller.. That's the only negative in my opinion. Now onto the positive, the scoring in my opinion got better, you actually have to use your whole body! I wasn't moving my legs and i was getting ok and goods but once i started using my legs and really getting into it, i was getting perfects. The game still has golden notes.. Mojo.. Where you can unlock things.. The songs are awesome, played for two hours tonite, haven't tried out the just sweat yet.. I honestly don't bother with it because it doesn't keep track of all calories burnt. After session is over you lost them, and on the wii i loved to rack up sweat points and check my total. Also the best thing they did was move your silhouettes above each of your names. A lot of songs your really moving around and changing spots with one another and spinning around one another and you get scored still and it doesn't change you to a different color... When playing just dance 3 or just dance greatest hits.. We noticed after some red exes that our silhouettes were different colors.. I would start out blue and end up red..that was pretty annoying! so, that got upgraded in my opinion..
Some of the songs are ridiculously hard to dance to. Example final count down, several parts of the song one character jumps and the other rolls under neath.. I told my hubby no way am i rolling under him while he's jumping lol.
One of our favs is I've had the time of my life and you definitely feel the dirty dancing aspect of the song! Awesome dance and song.. I also love the the fact you can unlock songs with different versions.. Like Rhianna umbrella.. One was just Rhianna and the other was Rhianna with jayz.. And there was a extreme dance version of one direction.. After you fill the mojo bar you get a chance to spin with different things on the board.. New songs, dance cards, mash ups etc..
Basically, this game has a high replay value! Its still got the awesome back grounds and colorful people with some cute and quirky costumes! I feel like they went above and beyond on this game and the only reason they get 4 stars is because of the interface other wise it would definitely be 5 stars!

Purchased this game for my daughter who has played the previous versions. She and I tried for over 30 minutes to get the game to work with the kinect and couldn't. She decided that it was too hard and frustrating and didn't want it any longer. Best Buy wouldn't allow us to return it because it wasn't defective even though I explained why I wanted to return it. NO LONGER A BEST BUY CUSTOMER.

Great Kinect Dance Game

I have the first two Dance Central games for kinect that me and the family enjoy. I've known about the Just Dance games on the Wii but this is my first experience with it on the Kinect.
I found it surprisingly more fun than Dance Central. It had a great selection of songs, and what made it really great to me was that there were many song genres to choose from and the dances matched the genre of the song. The dances seemed less regimented than the Dance Central ones and it just made it more fun to dance.
We especially enjoyed the option to dance with 4 players. Just Dance takes the 4 player experience to a new level by choreographing the dances so that in some songs each dancer does something different and it all adds up to a choreographed masterpiece (or not if you're in my family).
I am pleasantly surprised with Just Dance and I prefer it to the Dance Central games. Between the 4 player cooperation, the song selection, and the well thought out dance moves, the game is just more fun to play.

This game is another good one in the Just Dance series. Great to play with the kids (7&4) and a good workout. The interface with the Kinect for menus is embarrasing at best, impossible at worst. You almost have to use the controller to navigate the menus, which works fine but shouldn't be necessary.
All in all a great game and lots of family fun.

This game is AWESOME. So much fun! It takes a little while to get used to the Kinect - but once you get the hang of it things get easier. Songs will become stuck in your head and when you hear them on the radio you will want to practice your new dance moves.

We got the whole family in on this. The music is great and its really fun. I've never done this before so I have nothing else to compare it to. Freindly competition between the whole family has gotten everyone off the couch. I recommend this to anyone.

I played this a couple of times but can't get past two songs. It is a pain to navigate so I just play something else now. Kids can't do it either.

It is the biggest pain to navigate through the game especially when it's my 6 year old. Dance Central is way easier to navigate
