- Take note of these reviews and don't waste your money!
I was overjoyed to get this game, being a huge lover of kareoke and dancing and thought it would be fantastic. I had it for one night and sold it immediately (thanks Amazon).

Although I did have fun (most likely assisted by copious amounts of wine)! I found the game highly irritating because:

You have to go through a long and boring tutorial initially.

Making the character dance just involves wiggling your hand with the remote and messing about with the nunchuck. Since I clearly couldn't do this with a mike in my hand we had one person singing and one dancing.

There is is a very limited selection of cover songs, of which only a handful are good/recognisable.

You can unlock other ... Read More:

- DO believe what everyone else has to say about it!
I really wanted this game so I ignored all the bad reviews about Boogie. However, I am now looking to sell my copy after playing with it (both by myself and with friends) for an evening. This is because:

1) The Dancing is so bad! I do not know who did the programming for this, but they sure do not know how to dance. you sort of wave one hand around while fiddling with the buttons on your left. I wasn't expecting something as good dance dance revolution- but more in the line of the rayman dance game- which i LOVE, and where you can actually sort of dance to, instead of frantically trying to remember which buttons to push when to get a good score!!!

2) The Songs- why are they SO slow? Part of the fun of karaoke is singing ... Read More:

- V ery poor!
Having enjoyed the singstar games I thought this would be great fun, but it's not. This game is a rip off, most of the tracks are bad covers and the game is soo basic. The story mode is a joke, with no animation and terrible speech effects, I thought I was playing on my old megadrive!
I just bought this and am taking it back to get my money back. I thought EA were better quality than this.

- Don't bother!
Was excited about getting this but it took less than a month to get bored and trade it in. I think in that time I only played it about 5 times.

The choice of songs is ok, but even if you are a rubbish singer its easy to score high points. The dancing on the other hand seems very hard and the tutorials are stupidly short. You try out the "steps" 3 times - meaning that if you waft the remote about for a few seconds you tend to do it whether you intended to or not!

If its singing you are after - go for one of the singstar games on the PS2/3 - great fun and much better realised than this. Dancing wise, you are best sticking to one of the older style dance mat games out there.

Great idea but really badly worked ... Read More:

- Singstar's still tops for me
I was so excited to buy this game to play over Christmas with all hte family; we are big fans of Singstar on the Playstation and I had expected great things from this with the dancing as well as singing. I was very disappointed. I found it laboriously slow to get started and some of the controls were annoying. The dance moves were rubbish, it was just like waving around the controller and you donàt really have much control over the moves the computer character makes. Also, if you use the controller and the nunchuk for extra moves, how do you hold the mic to sing? We got around this by having one person sing and another dance and it was fine as we have a large sitting room so we both both bop around whilst playing, but if your space is limited, what do ...
