Entertainment Weekly
The game is just cheesy enough to make you stop, look, and bust out dancing. [5 Apr 2002, p.125]
GamePro
One of the better dance/rhythm games out there, and with so many unlockable goodies, it’ll make Britney fans want to consistently play it, baby, one more time.

Britney's likeness and her songs lend themselves especially well to this style of game. [July 2002, p.99]
Game Informer
Has one of the coolest interfaces of any title in the music genre. [July 2002, p.83]
TotalGames.net
For Britney fans the inclusion of exclusive unlockable DVD footage will make this a must-have. As for everyone else there are far better (and cheaper) examples of the genre on the market which we suggest you check out first.

The game is probably about 5 hours of gameplay, and another half hour of extras. Once you’ve unlocked it all, the game will probably collect dust. For that reason, it’s hard to recommend it to anyone but the most ardent Britney fan.
Read Full Review >GameSpy
Realistic dance sequences, solid graphics, and a soundtrack from Spears makes Britney's Dance Beat a surprisingly entertaining game.
Read Full Review >GameSpot
An enjoyable if short-lived experience, and it serves as a good introduction for the uninitiated to the world of rhythm games.
Read Full Review >Game Over Online
The game is hindered by unoriginal and lackluster gameplay mechanics that, while easy to pick up and play, does little to provide an experience that is as good as other music games currently on the market.

Oddly though, despite the game's limited premise, Britney's Dance Beat holds a curious mixture of addictive gameplay and fascination.

Ooh baby, baby, does this game get old in a hurry, with only five songs. [July 2002, p.82]
XenGamers
A surprising good dancing game, featuring excellent graphics and motion-capture work.
Read Full Review >IGN
It's short on songs, it's short on musical variety, backgrounds, dancers, and its even a little short on Britney.
Read Full Review >GamePen
The only real goal in the game is to unlock multimedia extras. Very little Britney! I want to play with Britney more!
Read Full Review >G4 TV
Its poor replayability and lackluster production values ultimately make this game a curiosity rental and nothing more.
Read Full Review >PSX Nation
An extremely short playtime, too difficult for younger kids, and too simplistic for older folk, only diehard Spears fans, who adore these types of rhythm games, may consider deeming this worthy of even a rental.
Read Full Review >Maxim Online
A mindless version of "Simon Says" to the masterful beats of "Oops, I Did It Again."
Read Full Review >Electric Playground
For the large group whose main interest in a Britney Spears videogame is sexual voyeurism, the inability to watch the breast-enlarged, navel-exposed, hip grinding onscreen display is a real let-down.
Read Full Review >Electronic Gaming Monthly
Besides 5-year-old girly-girls who like, love Britney, the banal set of revolving cominations and a suck-it-for-all-it's-got song list will send you surfing on a contagious yawn-wave. [August 2002, p.123]

God. This game is horrible. I played it for about half an hour and I already got bored.Though it is nice looking at the animated britney.But its just simply pathetic.This game is meant for the britney fanatics who absolutely adore her.

It is Britney Spears! God da@# it! How the f!@# can this game be even the slightest bit of entertaining! You people that gave it a ten must have some kind of mental problem! (If you do have a mental problem im very sorry.) This game deserves no recognition at all!!!
