Just Dance 2017 

 

As we march toward Christmas there is another game to enter Family Friendly Gaming Universe. This one is Just Dance 2017. Family Friendly Gaming was provided a copy of Just Dance 2017 on the Xbox One. Which in my opinion is still the best system to play Just Dance video games on. The skeleton tracking of the Xbox One Kinect sensor gives the most accurate grading of the dance moves.

There are songs in Just Dance 2017 that have lyrics many families will find offensive. I feel like there is less of the offensive content in Just Dance 2017 than in previous years. There are legacy songs in Just Dance 2017 so that is where I found more offensive content. There are also some sexually suggestive dance moves in Just Dance 2017. Kids younger than teenagers will probably have trouble doing some of the dance moves in Just Dance 2017.

The core of Just Dance 2017 is getting up off the couch and getting some exercise. I completely support this endeavor. In fact I wish more video games got gamers off the couch. I wish more video games promoted exercise. Just Dance 2017 is a fine ambassador for getting some exercise. Just Dance 2017 will tire you out. Whether it is after three songs, or six; eventually you will start to sweat.

There are some new dance moves in Just Dance 2017 too. Some of them are easy to pick up and others are much more difficult. There are forty songs in Just Dance 2017. There are also different ways to dance to certain songs. Just Dance 2017 can also be played online if you have the correct membership. Just Dance 2017 can be played with a compatible smart phone if you do not have a Kinect.

The different graphical effects in Just Dance 2017 are neat to see. Some songs have some confusing things going on, on the screen. Just Dance 2017 has a real international flavor and flair to it. I have even found a few songs we purchased on iTunes. Ubisoft is making money for the artists they had to pay to include in Just Dance 2017. Seems like the musicians should pay Ubisoft for the exposure, advertisements and sales in my opinion.

We are all having fun with Just Dance 2017 here at Family Friendly Gaming. There are a variety of dance related physical injuries that have come up from playing this game. It is a great reminder to pace yourself and take breaks. Just Dance 2017 is a game that can be so much fun we do not want to stop playing. Taking turns with Just Dance 2017 is a great way to get some exercise and stay in shape.
