E3 2010: Harmonix Announce 'Dance Central' for Kinect

Dance Central

Written Monday, June 14, 2010 By Richard Walker

Harmonix CEO Alex Rigopulos took to Microsoft's E3 stage to announce the developer's Dance Central for Kinect featuring a huge track list from the likes of Lady Gaga, No Doubt and the Beastie Boys.

With carefully choreographed dance sequences, the game has you pulling off dance moves with crowd approval for well-executed popping and boos for making a hash of the routine.

Kinect uses your whole body as it captures your moves with what looks to be 1:1 accuracy, and has a similar aesthetic to Rock Band. Hardly surprising really.

	It looked really cool. Now we remain to see if the lag doesn't really hurt the gaming. It would be so nice to have an almost lag free device and see our movement real-time on the TV.

	I want this. Too bad I can't dance for crap. Oh well I'll just play it when nobody's home.

	Harmonix people. Everyone writing off the Kinect so early should look to something like that as potential.

	I think this looked pretty sweet! I'll have a crack at it, even though I'm fat and out of shape! Looks fun!
