Just Dance 2 will feature tracks from classic hits and legendary songs to today's chart-toppers. Players will enjoy moving on a wide selection of musical genres, including Pop, Country, R&B, Disco, Funk, Rock, World music, etc. Each track features its own choreography and dance lovers will move their bodies for hours on end. From Rihanna's SOS to Donna Summer's Hot Stuff, from I Got You by James Brown to When I Grow Up by the Pussycat Dolls, Just Dance players will find songs and routines to which they can't wait to break it down. And if they still want more, they will be able to download tracks from an expanding catalogue of new hits.
Just Dance 2 also boasts new environments, new modes, new moves... It brings the experience one step further with enhanced multiplayer options and new hilarious game modes. Players will now be able to create their own team and engage in dance-off contests with up to 8 players. In the Duet Mode, each player will follow a different choreography mixing dance steps and poses that will respond to the choreography of the other. And before engaging in face-offs and co-op challenges, players will take advantage of solo play to increase their performance. An added benefit is the new Just Sweat mode where players will keep their eyes on the Sweat Meter as their calorie counter shows them how much work they've put in.
The Classic Mode remains the core entry point to Just Dance 2 featuring fun and simple menus and giving access to all songs from the start - this is the perfect mode for an immediate dive into a non-stop dance-a-thon. And for those who are too shy to dance but love to sing, all tracks are accompanied by song lyrics on-screen. So even if they don't score points with their voice, they're sure to score some with the crowd... well, maybe.

Product reviews...
I have been told to get some exercise, anything that will get the blood pumping and body parts moving. A gym was suggested but with 3 kids of various ages it is not that easy to do. We already have the Wii so thought that a good plan would be some dancing games as then I would be moving and getting the heart pumping.
I know most the songs so that does help a bit, I end up singing along with it (not sure how the helps) but at the end of the day if I'm moving and having fun then I'm going to keep doing it and it is going to help. I usually play as solo but sometimes my boys want to join in as it looks like fun, my daughter refuses to join in as she says "Mum you look silly dancing around the lounge" and there are party modes and it does keep score and tell you if you did perfect moves or not.. mainly not if you are me.

Calico is a puzzly tile-laying game of quilts and cats.
In Calico, players compete to sew the coziest quilt as they collect and place patches of different colours and patterns. Each quilt has a particular pattern that must be followed, and players are also trying to create colour and pattern combinations that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also able to attract the cuddliest cats!
