DESCRIPTION

Inspired by such hits as Konami's Dance Dance Revolution, Activision's Dancing with the Stars offers 36 licensed songs and both cooperative and competitive modes for two players. Based on ABC's weekly dance competition, Dancing with the Stars features nine previous celebrity contestants, including Emmitt Smith, Stacy Keibler, Mario Lopez, and Joey Lawrence. The couples must perform the cha-cha, tango, mambo, samba, rumba, foxtrot, waltz, and other dances.

Players will follow each routine by moving the Wii Remote and Nunchuk in the same directions as the arrows displayed on screen. Other Wii-specific touches include the ability to replicate such maneuvers as the twist, hot potato, and hand jive by following the same motions. After the performance, the television show's three judges will offer their critique. Featured songs include "Put Your Records On"," "I Like the Way You Move," "She's a Lady," "These Boots Were Made for Walking," and "The Final Countdown." ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
