"In fact, I owe it to Just Dance for being the first game that pushes its audience to consider suicide on an active basis, thanks to leaving three other spots open at all times on every song when playing alone-just to remind you that you are playing alone one of the worst games published and printed. Just to remind you that on New Year's Eve when the three parties you turned down for the one date you'd be on stood you up and left you alone with a bottle of angry medicine and your cat in a living room, there was Just Dance… waiting… watching… basking in its self-satisfaction and the endless hall of graves it had already dug for your self-confidence. And I beat Superman 64."

Ya know its pretty decent when someone goes this far..

What I'd really like to see is for an established writer over at IGN, Gamespot, etc. to investigate and really try to understand why this game has become a commercial success (without resorting to insulting the intelligence of the Wii's owners).

because in those games fun is a small part of the full package and the road to enjoyment while in just dance fun is the purpose of the game and dancing is the tool to get there that is the difference a game that is more fucosed on a fun experience will be more pure fun the a game that focuses on it less and a whole range of other things included in that experience but either game you choose if you like it you will probably enjoy either way. To enjoy a game is not equal to having fun, fun is part of the enjoyment but if a game focuses on the fun part and is done properly like in this case then it will be more fun as a game but thats not to say that you will have more fun with this because you dont seem to like this kind of game (thats the impression you are giving) you will probably have more fun and enjoy some other game (what ever that would be) but if you could step out of your preferences then you could see and measure the ammount of pure fun each game has even if it´s not your kind of game abd in this case you seem to be missing that attribute as a human being.

Well i am off to play some games with my brother, will be back later and continue this with you if you still interested.

@psrock

I think you misunderstand what vaio is getting at. Imagine Teenage Tom wants a lion for his birthday. He doesn't get a lion he gets a tiger instead. It's not a lion but it's a good substitute. Tom's happy with his tiger. Little Lucy wants a pony and she gets a pony. She would have been happy with a horse but her parents delivered on their promise and Lucy gets exactly what she wanted.

Lucy's parents delivered better than Tom's. Is a pony better than a tiger? Who cares?

How do you measure fun?

I enjoy Uncharted 2 because: it's well made, great story, looks amazing, plays amazing, funny and I have tons of fun in the multiplayer.

Now, you think I will give more credit to a game that the most you can say about it is it's fun. Dancing is fun period, but what about the game?

What?

I am not a big fan of MW2, but seriously the game is way beyond and has delivered way more than just dance could ever dream of. If you want a better example use The Conduit, that game was advertise has the big shooter, the crazy graphics and great multiplayer which it failed to deliver.

Once again, fun cannot be measured, it vary person to person. Stop bringing it up as excuse for a game badly reviewed but bought by the casual market.

For you maybe, for someone who wants a dancing game it doesn't.

I think my niece would tell you that Just Dance has delivered way more than MW2.

How on Earth did this become about MW2? PSRock, did it personally offend you that it was brought up?

Who cares which 'delivers more', the point of this thread is that people are loving Just Dance and reviewers like IGN were morons for reviewing the game from the perspective of their own values.

I would not expect someone who needs a dancing game to understand the value of MW2.

At least they are now just like movie critics, totally out of touch.
