Resolution's Marco Fiori writes: Dance Central comes courtesy of Harmonix, the developer powerhouse behind the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games. With such a pedigree in rhythm based games, it’s only natural that they’ve gotten behind Kinect. Kinect offers huge potential, especially for such a visual activity as dancing. In the past (bar Let’s Dance on the Wii), we’ve been limited to dance mats where you match the corresponding foot to the arrow shown on screen. This approach as an actual recreation of dancing proves limited because of a lack of upper body movement (in fact, if we’re being obtuse, when considering the ‘man shuffle’ – move side to side in a stiff manner attempting to look blasé about dancing – it could actually be true).
The Meta Quest and PSVR 2 platforms host a number of great dancing and rhythm games, but which are best for your play time?
With Xbox 360 and a Kinect peripheral now cheap as chips, I finally got down with my funky self with Dance Central.

Dance Central will feature a 32 song soundtrack, custom choreography designed for VR, practice mode, customizable avatars, and competitive and cooperative online multiplayer.
Might have to pick this up at some point.
Why would you not just go dancing at a club? Instead of staying at home alone dancing with your toy...
Or how about drive a real car instead of a racing game? it's a game, that's the whole point.
