All this is  already gorgeous,  but the best part of Just Dance 2 is the multiplayer mode! There you have more possibilities too, to be more specific, 6 games:

  • Classic- you just dance to the music
  • Duet – 2 coaches choreography, each dancer has something different but they work together.
  • Simon Says- dance, stop, spin, clap yours hands like Simons says
  • Medley- a mix of choreography, that means you have a mix of songs and you must keep the rhythm during all of them. They change randomly.
  • Race - you must be the first to reach the flag through winning each stage which is a song.
  • Royal flush: 5 pre-selected modes in a row.

In this mode, like in all other, you have an avatar on the bottom of the screen which shows you the movement to do, but seriously it is too hard to follow him, better is to watch the larger one  in the middle of your screen. And when you play with friends , and you aren’t dancing you can sing, because for each song you have the lyrics which roll by on your screen. So during one dance the other can sing. 

And the graphics are pretty cool, the scenery changes with the music genre along with  the avatar as well. The colors are vivid, and some times psychedelic. If you are listening a techno song, the scenery is adapted, if you select a country song, the scenery changes color and your avatar wears a cowboy hat and boots, etc. Just Dance 2 is full of all these details which make this game so good, almost  without fault. And the movement of your avatar are so perfect, he moves like a real person which was most likely achieved through motion capture.

In all the game I found only one negative point, the Wii registers only the hand movements which hold the Wiimote. Notice, if you are a bad dancer it can be a positive point, you need only move your hand properly and it is all. Unlike the upcoming Kinect which will utilize full body motion.

If you want some mega party fun I recommend you spend the 29,99 £ and buy Just Dance 2 , you won’t regret it. After all, everyone can try to dance even if they do it poorly.
