Do not buy this game. Do not rent this game, do not look at this game on the shelf, don’t even think about this game lest someone at Ubisoft find out and they prep a Just Dance 2. Such would be the end of all things, mark my words.

Just Dance can be a whole lot of fun for the right audience, and that audience is sure to love it despite its very basic nature. In any event, it's at least worth renting to laugh with (at) your friends.

Just Dance is really an awful game that should be avoided. If you like dancing and waving your arms around, there are a lot better ways to spend $40.

You know, I never understood the hype for the Just Dance series. I never had even played one of these games, so I thought to myself, "Hey! I should try the first game!" I booted it up, played for about 10 minutes and realized that it's definitely the first Just Dance game. I didn't understand how it was this game that spawn a series with a vast number of these. I realized that this was a Wii dancing game. Of course everyone loved it. Everyone had a Wii. However, it's just so lifeless. The menus make me feel nothing when I pick a song. These songs are for sure a time capsule. The motion controls are laughably bad. Even if you follow the moves perfect, you'll miss. I understand it's a Wii game from 2009, but this was a mediocre Wii game at the time, and now it's a soulless game that everyone forgot about as they're playing the new one, which I'm sure is the same game with more modern songs and better controls

I appreciate this game, because it is first in the series. And the most horrible one. The budget was veery low. I like the songs and the dances, they are not too hard, because it's mostly basic moves, sometimes too repetitive. The tracking doesn't work most of the time

Goofy, fun and sometimes ridiculous, Just Dance is a great little game that stops short of being fantastic because of a lack of gameplay options and janky motion-sensing. It’s just not precise enough to appeal to a really competitive gamer, but then again, that’s not audience they’re going for.

It's not up to the high standard set by other music games like SingStar and Guitar Hero, but it's good enough to please wannabe dancers.

A game that broke so badly that it ended up being a complete legend of the genre.

Just Dance has all the right ideas, but all the wrong mechanics. Below average graphics and a flawed rating system were the difference in this game coming more dud than hit.

As a whole, Just Dance doesn't work out too well. The graphics may be very spartan and the sound may be fine, but the controls and the gameplay just don't cut it.

One of the worst gaming experience ever created. Track list is poor and the movement relevation is very imprecise.

I'd call it an accomplishment to play through the entire game without creatively strangling a bystander with a cable just for watching you go through the jumps of self-depreciation that Just Dance asks of you.

Just dance is pretty awesome ! You have have a wide range of songs they you know nearlly all of them. It picks your moves up so accuratley. If you like to loose weight I could tell you it made me loose weight more than the 'Wii fit' because when I came off it and went on the wii fit I lost my weight to my target.

I better set my self in going to the Disco with my friends and girlfriend rather than playing this. This is a reason why some software developers still don't understand to work with the WII games. In Fact the game doesn't even have a big music list , giving the option to throw it in the antique stuff . Also, the movement aren't readable , well, most of them, so is easy too cheat.
SummaryRequiring only one Wii Remote per player, up to four people can break it down at a time, as they follow on-screen choreographed moves set to classic dance tracks, covering a wide variety of musical genres and bringing everyone to the dance floor. Whether it's a group of 15 year-old girls who just want to have fun, a high school reunion d... Read More
