It’s just an arbitrary number of points at the end of the song. The odd thing is that the game gives you a score for each dance you do, but there’s no description of what the score is or even what is a good or bad score. You could save money by just turning on the radio or your Itunes and moving your body to the music. As there is no real point to the game, a calorie counter or anything like that for working out or any reward, you’re basically playing forty dollars for piss poor choreography. This is nice, but ultimately very shallow and you can play through all thirty songs in under two hours. There are only thirty songs in the game, twenty-eight of which are performed by the original artists. Even then it’s quite far from actually dancing as you’re just flailing your arms, but more on that in the Control & Gameplay section. It’s just a really bad no frills dance game.

You can also play either the full song or a truncated version. Within each of these modes you can choose to play a single song or several songs in a row. You have two mode options: single player and multiplayer. Let’s take a look and see if Just Dance deserves a place as a stocking stuffer or if it’s something that makes a lump of coal look good. However, much like the ladies you meet at a rave, just because the game promises to be cheap and easy doesn’t mean it’s any good. With a MSRP of $39.99, it’s a bit cheaper than the average Wii game and much cheaper than Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party 3, which requires a Wiimote, dancepad and a nunchuck to get the full value out of it. It’s just shaking your groove thang with a Wiimote in hand. There’s no dance pad or need for a nunchuck. The big selling point to this title that makes is stand out if that all you need is a Wiimote to play. Just Dance is the latest in a long line of rhythm and dancing games. You know, I keep calling this game “Let’s Dance” in my head which of course gets the David Bowie song by the same name in my head.
