Perhaps it is just me but there are about 10-15 songs I could have done without. The Disney song and George Michael’s “Careless Whisper” don’t fit with that general top-40 Just Dance vibe. The song selections seem all over the place. Here is where I take a little issue with the game. Just Dance 2014’s songs range from Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” to Disney’s Aladdin “Prince Ali”. Sure it seemed awkward at first but after a few songs I found I got used to holding the Wii Remote while dancing away to some pretty good tunes. What also impressed me about the game was that the Wii Remote doesn’t take anything away from the experience. The intent of the game is really to dance and have some fun.
#Just dance moves like jagger full
Let’s face it in a room full of people, you will look a little silly standing there just moving your right hand about. That is of course if you are all about the scores. As long as you are following the movement of the highlighted hand on the screen, your scores should be positive. Since the Wii Remote is in your hands, what you do with your feet, hips and other hand really doesn’t mater. That is, you don’t have to be completely accurate with your dance moves. Using the Wii Remote has some advantages for those dance floor challenged folks like myself. Just point at the screen, select a song or mode and off you go. Everything is accomplished with the Wii Remote, so you can keep that Wii U GamePad on your charging dock for the time being because you won’t need it for single player play. One the best things Just Dance 2014 has going for it is how easy it is to navigate and how quickly you can jump into a song and get moving.
You just need to accept that unless you have significant dancing experience or have put some serious hours into other virtual dance games, you may look more like a physically challenged emu rather than Chris Brown or Britney Spears on the dance floor. As long as you don’t mind looking like wounded walrus and you can accept some of those bitter truths I mentioned above, Just Dance 2014 is about as good as it gets for a social dancing party game. With the right group of people, and maybe some wobbly pops, Just Dance 2014 can be and is a hoot. It has actually given me a pretty good reason to wipe the dust off my Wii U and wiggle away to some pretty good tunes. Just Dance 2014 is not a bad game in fact it is quite the opposite. It is not that Just Dance 2014 is a hard game per se but rather it’s a combination of my lack of physical attributes combined with some rather complex on-screen dance moves that makes this Just Dance a little difficult for this aging gamer. The reality is I don’t move anything like the dancers on screen. There are the on-screen dancers and then there is me.
Either Just Dance 2014 is not for me (which is likely the case) or life has just passed me by, but honest to goodness Just Dance 2014 is about the most challenging game I have played all year. Three, at some point over the past 20-years a dance fairy swept in and stole any semblance of dance moves I previously had. Two, I am not getting any younger and my joints and muscles don’t quite react like they used to. One, I am out of shape as thirty seconds into the song and I found myself huffing and puffing. As I was sweating away to Lady Gaga’s “Applause” in the middle of my living room, I came to terms with a few brutal honest truths about myself.
