If you've played a DDR game before, you pretty much know what to expect. This is Hottest Party's single player bread-and-butter, and it should be somewhat entertaining for both novices and veterans alike. Groove circuit, on the other foot, has you traveling through venues and completing various challenges before battling each area's boss character.
WII DANCE REVOLUTION REVIEW FREE
In free play, you just pick a song, a venue, and a difficulty, and then dance away. When you begin, you have three play options: free play, groove circuit, and workout mode. So, every time you play DDR, you have to reset them. Of course, you can turn the hand movements off and tweak a few other options, such as freeze arrows and other gimmicks, but none of these preferences are saved if you turn off your system. If you see one of these coming up the right or left side of the screen, you move your right or left hand. New to Hottest Party are diamonds that correspond to hand movements.
If you're new to the series, it's all you can do to keep from tripping over your own feet, whereas veterans lithely skip all over the place, seemingly hitting all the arrows at once. In case you're new to DDR, it's a rhythm game that has you stepping all over a mat to hit arrows that match the corresponding arrows flowing up the screen to the caffeinated beat of a popular dance track.
The diamond means you shake it like a Polaroid picture. As a result, it's much easier to dive into, even though it doesn't add anything to the series. But unlike later PlayStation 2 releases, Hottest Party isn't completely encumbered with random modes and features. And if you're like us, you do enough of that when you're really dancing.īut aside from the lame Wii Remote action, Hottest Party is another DDR game with most of the modes, moves, and crazy arrows seen in previous versions. Instead of going for grace and gusto, Hottest Party goes for random, nervous twitches. One of the most timeless questions in the world of dance is: What do you do with your hands? Do you stick up your thumb like a hitchhiker? Flap your arms like a chicken? Wave them in the air like you just don't care? There are lots of options, and that's why Konami's Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party for the Wii is a little disappointing.
