Presentation
Dance like no one's watching
Calling all disco divas, bust-a-move masters and dads with two left feet – grab your PlayStation Move motion controllers and get ready to get down in DanceStar Party Hits. Yes, the biggest, best and loudest PlayStation party ever is ready to rock once more, jam-packed with 40 sizzling tracks from the world's biggest stars including Cheryl Cole's Fight For This Love, Jessie J's Who's Laughing Now and The Wanted's Glad You Came.
Fear not about making an utter fool of yourself in front of your pals; you will be guided through the 160 dance routines by an on-screen dancer and easy to copy movement icons. Each track features four different dance routines that vary in difficulty, so everyone from total beginners to seasoned dance floor experts will be able to shine in their very own spotlight.
And if you feel the rhythm of the music is in your soles, as much as your soul, you can even use your motion controller to create your own dance moves as you go feet-to-feet with your friends in epic dance-offs.
Once you've shaken your behind on the PlayStation Move dance floor, you can then upload pictures and videos of your performance to Facebook, Twitter, dancestarparty.com and the in-game community gallery for your friends to enjoy. Oh, and don't forget to head down to PlayStation Store whenever you're thirsty for more tracks and dance moves.
