I recently purchased over the last weekend, Dance Dance Revolution Universe.  I am a big fan of DDR and this latest rendition on the Xbox 360 is no exception.  The game features a lot of new songs that I haven’t ever heard before and I am enjoying the change-up.  Overall there are more than 65 new songs, with a lot more to unlock and even more will be downloadable for a fee over Xbox Live.  The cost is 100 points per song or cheaper if you buy them as a bundle.  I haven’t bought the songs yet, but I figure it will help stretch out the lifetime of the game if I keep having new material to dance to.

One of my favorite features is back, the Workout Mode.  I really like the idea of keeping track of how much i use the game, it allows me to see how much energy I am using playing the game.  It displays the total for the day in the Workout Mode section, as well after every song it will say how many calories I burnt. It always looks good to see that the game is a form of a workout.  What more can I ask for in a game?  It’s a really fun game and I get the side benefit of a workout.  I am definitely recommending it.
