  • Summary: Join some of the most popular cast members from past seasons, including nine stars such as Joey Lawrence and Laila Ali and nine professional dancers as you compete to impress the judges.

    I'm really kind of embarrassed that I'm giving this game such a high score. I thought I was going to hate it, but I really liked it. Now all they need to do is combine the hand motion dancing from this game with a DDR style game to get the full body involved and you'll have a really hard and involved dancing game on your hands.

    A decent shot at motion-controlled rhythm gameplay aside, this shameless cash-in game of a shameless cash-in TV show is what it is. What is it? Stacy Keibler is in this game!

    As with most games looking to cash in on whatever is popular at the moment, this game is just the same old song and dance.

    Lets remember this game is rated for 10+, My 6 yr old plays and my wife who never plays video games loves it. It is a good game to get the family together. That is why i give it an 8.… Expand

    Bought this for the mum-in-law for Christmas. We all played it at the traditional Christmas dinner. Fun was had by all. Yes, it is a light simplistic game. But the ladies like it, and it is good in a mixed group to get non-gamers up in front of the TV making fools of themselves. Quote from a friend at the party: "It's like Guitar Hero only lamer".… Expand

    DDR for your hands! What a disappointment! It does get faster and more difficult, but there's no dancing involved whatsoever.
