Thread: Dance Central 2

For a developer it is hard to invent asolid storyline to be included in a simple game of ball. Theimportant thing is to do a good job of programming, to be able toimmerse and entertain the player after a simple apprenticeship, andbe supported by a valid device. But for Dance Central 2 Harmonixwanted to introduce a story mode anyway, which we are committed tobringing our alter ego virtual dancer street dancer said, in defianceof five different crew.

This will unlock new characters,costumes, and the same groups that then, if we wish, we canrepresent. Compared to its predecessor, Harmonix has tried to make aneffort with more game modes: access must pass as usual by selecting"dance" from the main menu. Here we can choose to perform,break the pieces to learn the steps little by little (highlyrecommended), or access the story mode just described: the dancecompetition. As usual you can also consult the online leaderboards,which will destroy your ambitions as usual of great dancers showingat the top players with stratospheric scores that have nothing toenvy to the world's greatest dancers.


The first welcome addition is theability to create a personal playlist of about 44 songs from DanceCentral offers us 2. We can save up to a maximum of twenty fivesongs, good and useful option in case of reunion with friends, toplay without pauses and returns to the main menu. The songs on thedisc can still add those in the first chapter: to do so, you willfind the code printed on the back of the manual of the first Dance Central and have 400Microsoft Points. Returning to the new songs we can not but noticethe more work (and not just numbers) in the selection of Harmonix.

In addition to the current fashionpieces to artists like Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber, wefind also historical pieces as Venus Bananarama, dated even in1986.Among the new purely technical, there's definitely worthmentioning the possibility of calling songs and other select menuitems with spoken commands: saying "Xbox dance," we willhave the opportunity to select the song to be performed, how to dealwith, the difficulty and much more. If we are in trouble, you caneven walk in slow mode disassemble, speed it up or return to theprevious step without invoking any menu.
