[Memefan]

[smooth_criminal05]

By the end of this year, global sales for this game will top 6 million. Mark my words.

 

[BillieJean84]

ok... i guess Kinect it is.

OMFG is it coming out on Kinect soon!?!?

 

[Ágnes]

OMFG is it coming out on Kinect soon!?!?

yeah, March

 

[potpot]

No the date for Kinect and PS3 is on April 12 for North America. Can NOT wait 4 da Kinect verison, I WANT 2 see vids and photos of it....

 

[Sarah.lovess.MJ]

My family got the kinect for Christmas i am sooooo buying this game!

I want it now though! it better be worth the wait!!

 

[iso_b]

Not happy with the playstation move feature...facebook connectivity?? hows that going to make my game experience any better? Glad there will be extra tracks though blood on the dance floor is liek one of my favourites just hope they add You rock my world, man in the mirror jam and dangerous!

 

[Staffordshire Bullterrier]

I don't see this game coming out for Kinect in march, there's only one gameplay movie of it, and it doesn't show much. Unless some news starts coming out this month or next month, i don't see it coming out in march.

But from the three versions..it's the Kinect version to go for. If Ubi does it properly...you'll be using your complete body to dance like Michael in the game, and that simple fact destroys anything the Wii-mote and PS Move controller have to offer...if you ask me.

^ Kinect version is coming in April as is the PS3 version. This was confirmed by Ubisoft yesterday.

Really? Cause i didn't see it on gaming sites...this is really confirmed?

 

[DeeEmAych]

So BOTDF and IJCSLY and more!!!?? That's awesome!

They definitely need to add the following tracks for sure...regardless of who wrote/produced them:

-You Rock My World (people became MJ fans BCUZ of this song!)
-Scream (with a "Janet" dancer!)
-Jam (should've been in original game)
-Man In The Mirror (his biggest selling song on iTunes!)
-Dangerous (would be easy to include since so many live performances!)
-PYT (fun song!!!)

Also, Unbreakable and Why You Wanna Trip On Me would be great additions!!

-Dal

 

[Hicci]

Does anyone know why 'Money' was included in the game?

 

[DeeEmAych]

Does anyone know why 'Money' was included in the game?

basically cuz it was written my MJ, and MJ only!

the MJ estate is kinda being greedy in a sense.. cuz they chose to include almost ONLY songs written solely by MJ...

that way they save on royalty payment to other producers/writers.. so more money for the estate..

i believe the only songs in the game not written by solely MJ is RWY and Thriller (Rod Temperton) and RTT (MJ & Teddy Riley)... thats it..

while that is a good way to make money, they really should've put YRMY, Scream, MITM, Jam, and PYT in the game... huge hits that they missed completely!!

So its been confirmed that the game will be re-released with added songs!?? I know 'Man in the Mirror' isn't really a dance but it would be nice to have on it anyway.

p.s. I don't think there should be any J5 songs! This is only Michael!!


& is Another Part of Me on there too? If not, it should be added

 

[Pentum]

They should have added a difficulty called "Michael Jackson", so we could dance exactly like him (only for the best dancers obviously).

 

[ShineGloveShine]

I agree, they needed to add that feature because I find that the difficulty on most of the dances are to easy that I've found on some videos. (I do not own the game, but do plan to get it on Kinect).

 

[innuendo141]

the game got too easy after like a week.

 

[Samweed]

I really enjoy this game. Yeah, a lot of the dancing isn't EXACTLY what he did, but it is still fun, Billie Jean is almost dead onto the Motown 25 performance and that's my favorite one.

I often think though these dance games that are for the wii and other types of gaming systems aren't for those who are actually good at dancing.

 

[flutinggnee]

You guys are better dancers than me! I find it challenging. Maybe if I keep working on the Wii version, then I'll be ready for the more full-body experience of the Kinect version. Sounds like fun!

 

[iso_b]

Well yeah the game is obviosly made for people who cant actually dance...its a game, you need to accept it wont be the exact replica of MJ dancing but a broken down version converted into playable game! Otherwise it wouldnt be a game and would be so hard and peoiple buy it!

 

[StaceyMJ]

Agreed, it was never going to be a complete technical replica of his actual moves. It's meant to be fun and a game, that ain't gonna be much fun for 99% of the population lol! I can understand the frustration though.

 

[L.T.D]

I'm sure its a great game and i'm glad you all enjoy it.

But I actually cannot play it. These dance routines are programmed inside me, literally. I automatically go to do the next move in the routine for say......Smooth Criminal and it does something else. Therefore I get it wrong.

Even the moonwalk sequence in Billie Jean is different, that more than anything is programmed deep inside me.

To play this game i'd have to basically learn to do the routine another way, and i'm not prepared to do that after years of practicing it the original way.

I'm selling this game, if anyone wants to buy it PM me

It's not that serious...

[Dangerous21]

After playing Dance Central on the Kinect, I'm hyped for the MJ game on it! I'm amazed by how accurately Kinect senses all your body movements. Lots of fun playing dance central...hope MJ The Experience is even better!

 

[L.T.D]

It's not that serious...

-Dal

I didnt say it was........ :S. I'm just explaining why I dont like the game....

I also know the Smooth Criminal coreography (as well as some others) and it's difficult not to do the routine you already know by heart, and follow the game instead. But I just take it as extra challenge

What annoyes me the most is how much the exact positioning of the Wii-remote affects your score. No matter how on point you are with some moves, you only score 'Ok' or get an 'X'. That happens on ITC, as someone else already mentioned. There are also some moves on The Girl Is Mine that I just can't seem to get right, no matter how I hold the remote, it's really irritating. Ironically, I have higher scores on songs that are supposed to be difficult but can't crasp some of the easier ones, lol.

So far the highest I've scored is on TDCAU:

 

[DeeEmAych]

my friend jen came by today and played the MJ game for only the 2nd time... and got a new high score on THRILLER.......... 5 STARS!! 10,880 POINTS!! HOW DID SHE DO THAT?? haha..

-Dal

 

[Memefan]

I hope they add either Hollywood Tonight or Monster on Kinect.

ETA I got my highest score on Beat it. 10260pts.

lol

 

[Jackson Rules]

Did you already saw these screenshots?? They come from the Xbox360 Kinect version.

 

[Laura.L.]

^^Wow!! Wii looks so crappy compared to that. I wish I had Xbox.
