Irish games journalist in Dance Central shocker – video inside

dance central gc

Okay, alright. Here it is. In its own place. Let the abuse begin.

Watch me play Dance Central on Kinect with No Doubt’s Hella’ Feelin’ Good from today’s Microsoft Play Day event, and see the panic and fear when I nearly pick Lady Gaga’s Poker Face.

It was the worst ten seconds ever.

As for the Harmonix dancer itself, it’s shaping up nicely. We’re going to go ahead and tip it as our potential killer app for Kinect.

Dance Central launches with Kinect on November 4 in the US. No European date’s been announced for it as yet.

If you ever needed proof Kinect don’t work this is it,4 stars (or blue circle thingy’s) for a dance routine that clearly should have got a 5!

Clearly the Irish should not be allowed to dance with their upper bodies. Well done Johnny for trying

That might have been the funniest thing I’ve seen all year.

Fair play to you, Johnny. Fair play.

The combination of the unrelentingly positive support from the attractive female helper, juxtaposed with Pat’s mocking laughter makes this a truly epic experience.

Cullen: legend.
