Sad day :(

Just Dance 2 looks much better than the original, though.


I don't see how for an HD fan, the profits are probably being tunneled into a big budget money pit on the twins, if beyond good and evil 2 sees that light of day you'll owe just dance a big thank you



I HAVE A DOUBLE DRAGON CAB IN MY KITCHEN!!!!!!

NOW A PUNISHER CAB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I'd rather see a good game sell well. And you'd be wrong to think otherwise.

I'm a fan of good games.

You should learn to respect other people's opinions.

Just Dance is a bad game. I don't even need to tell you my opinion. I'm going to let the professionals speak:

That being said, a bad game can still be fun.

No. I still enjoy bad movies.

And I can still have fun with a bad game.

I should respect other people's opinions, and yet your doing the exact opposite. metacritic is completely meaningless for a game like this, something intended for teenage girls doesn't really makes sense to be reviewed by adult males does it?

That be like asking a group of teenage males what they think of a new toys doll, most of them will say it is stupid. does that make a toy doll a bad toy for the intended market?

Well I'm not a teenage girl and I said that Just Dance is a bad game so I guess I'm normal.

Jesus didn't tell me anyting you know.



Well Ubisoft was able to adapt where others weren't.  Music genre was on the downturn until Just Dance and its eventual follow-ups.  Now it's as strong ever.  All for the simple idea of making it less complex, less bulky, and of course cheaper.  It's not that people still didn't want these music based games, but they wanted something different, something easier, and something that wouldn't hurt the wallet.  Kudos to Ubisoft for realizing it.  Now they have a huge hit on their hands and the ability to continue to take it to the next level.  Hopefully they won't fall victim to staleness like Activision and EA.  But those two definitely need to take a note from Ubisoft.

Funny, that we never thought that the simple idea of Wii Music would eventually become big in the music genre, but well Nintendo proved us wrong again.  Well, in a weird sort of way haha.  Nintendo is probably kicking themselves that they didn't follow fully with it.  Although, Ubisoft also had their own inspiration from the Rabbids games were this obviously started off for them.  



Well maybe they will break 5M both but I can't see them selling more than 8m still if it happens it will be great.
