    To my disappointment, the sequel didn't turn out as cool as the first one, but it's still an addictive game with most of the characters that fans of the original have come to know and lust, er, love.

    A solid game for those who are looking for something fun and different, and it's not as complicated as Konami's "Dance Dance Revolution."

    Given what "Bust A Groove 2" could have been, it's somewhat disappointing that "Bust A Groove 2" is such a plain rehash -- a solid game in itself but a lacking sequel.

    Not a conclusive improvement on its predecessor, and as a single-player game, it becomes thoroughly mindless after far too little time to justify the expense.

    Only those who have rhythm and coordination and don't mind acting a little silly will truly enjoy this game.

    This game just seems shallow in the gameplay department.

    The music isn't quite as good (as its predecessor), and the gameplay has been simplified so much that it fast becomes mindless and quite repetitive.

    I really like the game. It's a strategy game and I like trying to figure out what button to hit next. Plus, the characters are so cool. I really like the game.

    Bust a Groove and Bust a Groove2 are by far one of the best games out there for playstation 1. I know that it is the best dance game out Bust a Groove and Bust a Groove2 are by far one of the best games out there for playstation 1. I know that it is the best dance game out there. I can't say which one is better because they both have there own good qulities. The second one has better costumes than the first for example Kelly :) (much better than that baby suit). The only thing I regret is that they got rid of Gas-o, Pinky, and FRIDA!!. But at least they replaced them with other kool kick @ss characters like comet and Bi-o. I have a favor to ask everyone. Well let me start off with asking wouldn't it be cool if they came up with Bust a Groove 3. If you think yes write a letter to enix... the more sugestions they get the bigger of chance we have to there being a bust a groove 3 so come on everyone lets try!!!!!! :)… Expand
