    Song selection is underwhelming. Moreover, they have definitely cheapened on the choreography director. It is so much worse than last year. I am glad that the series has continued but the quality has definitely deteriorated.

    What happened to this series?? I've owned every JD game for the Kinect - hey, it's a great workout. But THIS? Terrible song selection, No World Dance Floor (Online) and a SUBSCRIPTION for old songs? Dance Central had a one time charge to import ALL the previous songs to DC3. Why this decision? It's like they're trying to kill the franchise. Top 3 franchises that killed THEMSELVES: TonyWhat happened to this series?? I've owned every JD game for the Kinect - hey, it's a great workout.

    An above average entry in the series, with a comprehensive Just Dance experience in Unlimited. The new dances are varied in style and difficulty, this is all the matters. The new menu is simple and fluid (a major improvement)

    Don't waste your money.

    Bought the game had a blast with the wife and kids....until day 2 when the trial subscription ran out. Then half the songs that we liked were locked out. NOWHERE ON THE BOX DOES UT TELL YOU YOU NEED A SUBSCRIPTION. So let me get this straight. I pay $40 for the game then I have to pay monthly to use half the game. Negative ghost rider, so I paid $40    Don't waste your money.

    I do not like the just dance series it is pointless how they constantly make games every year. This is just a stupid dance game but this one is really mediocre in my opinion. This game deserves not to be played.

    TERRIBLE SONG SELECTION, and World Dance Floor is not present yet. By the way, the new mode Dance Quest and Just Dance Unlimited helped the game to be less worse.

    Just Dance 2016 is a fun party game but its movement tracking does not offer enough precision to appeal to more competitive players. The track selection on the disk is a little lacking; with only a handful of big hitters available unless you are willing to pay for Just Dance Unlimited.

    Despite my qualms, I had fun playing Just Dance 2016 -- but then again, it’s hard not to. It’s still a favored party game and one that has almost perfected the fun-for-all game model. Heck, it’s reached a point where it’s thrown in some mediocre new modes and a subscription model just to keep itself fresh, so in some cases you can call this a success. However you can also say that Just Dance is a dying breed, one that is taking its last breath to capitalize on the streaming craze that’s enveloped our little gaming world. I say we don’t think about it too deeply, and just dance.
