There are Kinect and Move versions that were to be released at the same time, but they were delayed until next year

Not even before the first song ends you search for the path of least resistance and start moving only your arm.  To me, that kind of defines the idea of motion controls vs the reality.

The best part was seeing Ryan's and Jeff's arms appear from off screen whilst Vinny and the Tednado were dancing.

 Ted Nyman locked that vault down, son. 
 
Pretty convinced he was also a strong Prop 19 supporter. Or it's just the Nymaness that makes him so chilled out.

Ted's joke on Michael Jackson and little kids seemed a little poor, that's coming from someone who isn't even a late Michael Jackson fan.

I absolutely love this music. If the Kinect or Move versions of this are even somewhat functional, I'll be first in line.

I was super stressed, but watching Jeff and Ryan play this game is strangely hypnotic and therapeutic.

I love how the lyrics subtitles are so obviously wrong in several places (at least during Billie Jean), and Every Word Is Capitalized.

I'm very happy that at least someone is raping his corpse for all it's got. Surely 30+ years of amazing music is worth one Just Dance clone, right?

Did no one notice how the game suddenly added a third player, then a fourth player? I thought it was funny that it thought more than one person was there.

If anything is appropriate as shovel-ware for the Wii, it's Michael Jackson.

@Th3_James: Because its an Experience. 
 
Vinny probebly wanted to cut down the file size a bit so made it 38fps instead of 60fps that the game runs at or someting like that.

I thought it was "Cho'mon!" :( "
I checked around online and there seems to be no accepted standard. The general consensus is that while certainly the meaning of the word is "come on" or "c'mon", the actual spelling varies between "cha'mon", "cho'mon", "shamon", "shamone" and really everything inbetween.  As far as I am aware as of this moment there has been no legitimate academic research on this increasingly relevant topic.

Looks better suited for the Kinect. Track selection didn't seem that fantastic either. Lots of songs I haven't heard or slower songs.

@Rox360:  Have we forgotten about space channel five? I think with better tech this game could be a killer. We'll see if the kinect version improves. Probably not seeing how much EA sucked on Sport Active.

Of course I haven't. I love music games. That's why I'm complaining about this one, I want music games to be the best they can be. This one doesn't seem to be the best it could've been. If the Kinect version works well... actually, no, nevermind that. Even if the Kinect support ends up rocking, this would probably still be better off as an add-on for Dance Central or something like that. I admit I haven't seen a lot of this game, but I can't shake the feeling that it just seems... cheap. I can't shake the feeling that almost everything Michael Jackson lately has been cheaper than the name actually deserves.

  There is a video for Don't Stop, and it's pretty much what the game represented.
