Video Game Reviews of Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party Bundle
Customer Review: Great Eye/Hand/Feet coordination game
Summary: 4 Stars
This game is great for working on your Eye/Hand/Feet coordination and enjoying several decades worth of music. I could see this game benefitting kids and adults alike that are into sports such as soccer, where coordination training is necessary. I would agree the graphics are a bit cheezy, but my 6 and 9 year olds just love having friends over to play.Customer Review: DDR
Summary: 4 Stars
This game is a lot of fun. It's for the Wii. I had previously played the DDR game for PS2. It's actually a little bit harder because it involves hand motions.
I would definitely recommend this game to other Wii users.
You need a nunchuck with it. I do like that the songs are songs that are on the radio. Though, the challenges are a little hard to unlock the different songs. But I'm still getting used to it.
Customer Review: Brings some freshness to the DDR Series
Summary: 4 Stars
DDR for the Wii introduces several new dance steps for the feet, steps for the hands, and a battle mode.
One new step requires the player to step twice (on consecutive beats) to get credit. Another comes across the screen and spins to "confuse" the player. A third provides a penalty where half the screen is blocked if it is missed.
The hand motions include the shake of the Wii remote to hit a single beat and a repeated shaking of the Wii remote to maintain a beat (like the long foot step).
The versus mode contains a head-to-head battle between either a player and the computer, or multiple players. At the end a winner is declared. If both players get the same grade, the higher score is declared the winner. If one player gets a higher grade AND the higher score, that player is the winner. If the player gets a higher grade but a LOWER score, it is declared a tie.
There is a 10-stage mode for the solo player to beat which results in unlocking original songs, stages, character outfits, and workout plans. Each stage in the mode consists of 3 tasks. The first requires the player to beat a set number of songs on a specified difficulty of the player's choice while meeting certain conditions (i.e. grade of B or better). The second requires the player to beat specific songs on the same specified difficulty while meeting the same conditions. The final requires the player to beat a computer in a head-to-head battle (as described above) while meeting the same conditions. Once the player beats all 10 stages on the beginner/basic mode, the difficult mode stages are unlocked.
Overall I found this game to be very fun and had an added twist on the originals which I have been playing for almost 7 years. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because I would have preferred more of the Japanese dance songs to the American songs. The songs don't match my favorite two DDR CDs: 4th Mix and Extreme 2.
Customer Review: Awkward dancing to DDR!
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had this game for 2 weeks now and I love it. My little boy likes the training mode and then likes to get behind me and mimic my steps. I get up early in the morning to jump around on the pad and it doesn't feel like exercise although I haven't lost any weight like one other reviewer. I did turn off that annoying man's voice and on most dances turn off the hand movements because I could never seem to get them right even when I felt they were right on target, I got booed. Anyway, I have a lot of fun trying to keep up on the second level. I haven't danced for years except for aerobics so this feels great and I love trying to add my own movements while stepping on the arrows. I love this game!Customer Review: New DDR Addict
Summary: 4 Stars
I've owned this game since the release date and have played almost every day since. This is my first experience with DDR outside of Dave and Busters, and I have to say that this game is awesome.
I can't even begin to get above the second level of play, but I'm having so much fun with the first two levels, that I really don't mind. I have found the graphics just fine for my purposes, and the song selection is a good one that ranges from recent hits to favorite oldies.
One of the best things about this game is that without changing my diet, I've lost 6 lbs and lots of inches in a little over 3 weeks. I've got more energy and actually look forward to a form of aerobic exercise.
I would recommend investing in some type of padding to put under the dance pad as there isn't much cushion but that is pretty much my only gripe.
I highly recommend this game for both beginners of all ages and for more advanced players.
