Dancing Queen (sorta)

We love our video games around here. We've got multiple systems and a crap ton of games... 90% of which I totally suck at. I have issues when it comes to video games. I can't steer to save my life in racing games, first person shooters make me ill, "Portal", while it was totally cool, made my brain want to explode. I'm just not smart enough for stuff like Portal. "Mario Party" is more my speed. Stupid little mini-games that require little to no skill. Or a good RPG. I adore both "Fable II" and "Fable III". Rob got me "Epic Mickey" for Christmas, and despite the limitations of my retard-ness, I loved it.

However... I have a new favorite.

DANCE CENTRAL for the X-Box 360/Kinect

I'm literally wearing myself out everyday playing it. I'm sure I look like a hippo having a seizure, but I just don't care. It's that fun. Seriously. I'm voluntarily working out, and loving it. That alone should say something to you. It's easy to learn the moves, the song choices are fantastic, and the accuracy of the movement/graphics stuff is amazing. It's not like the Wii where you can half-ass the steps and just shake your controllers around. There are no controllers. Its just your body. How freaking COOL is that?! The only part I don't like is the video playback during the "freestyle" section. No one needs to see my lard bouncing around. Even I'd prefer to just not look. ;) I'm over halfway to my weight loss goal now. Woot! If this keeps up, I'll make it by the deadline, easy peasy. My Wii Fit will be so proud. And maybe a little jealous. ;)

I've not done all the songs yet, I have some favorites that I really love doing and repeat them a lot. Of the ones I have done, these are my current favorites. Enjoy!
