Dance Dance Revolution Universe

 (11 customer reviews)

When I ordered this game my husband laughed at me and said he wouldnt be caught dead on it. Liar..he cant dance at all but I keep catching him on "MY" ddr. Its a blast, I think I may have lost a couple of pounds--woo hoo and its great fun when we have friends over. I still cant believe that my husband LOVES this game. Its so funny and the poor clumsy guy just seems so proud of himself. Now if I could only get my cute little grandma on it.

Bought the bundled game and pad:
Game:
The game has a new user mode, good for newbies who need training.
It was not clear that you could only play 2 players if you had two pads (or the handheld controller), otherwise you must log in/out of your xbox to switch XBox live accounts between songs if you want to save your game.
There seem to be very few hits / radio songs with many being similar versions of the same old beats.
The animations are rather simplistic and graphics appear almost pixillated on a big screen HDTV.
Would have tried playing against others on XBox Live, but could never find any matching dance partner. I think most others have already given up on this one.
The quest mode is a pain in the behind because many of the quests require you to do things that most of the random songs do not have, so even when completing a song with high marks, you still fail.

Overall, This game was a bit disappointing after what I remember playing...Read more

We bought this game for our xbox 360 at the office. It's a nice little break from the work day and gives everyone a chance to get a little exercise. DDR Universe has a huge song selection. Another nice feature is that you can enter in some information about yourself to find out how many calories you have burned while playing. If you get more than one dance pad, you can compete against your friends. DDR Universe is a lot of fun and is great to play on your own, or as a party game.
