gaming is all about pushing the envelope. Guitar hero, Rockband and DDR are all brilliant attempts at accomplishing a completely different method of playing the game. i get so tired of people saying they're stupid games just because they're not your standard run and gun, rts, or rpg.
So something that you can have a ball playing with your family is dumb? Not to me. We play board games as well alot. But, when we did the DDR I have never seen my parents laugh as much as they did. And to see my brother get up there and try was a treasure in itself. Not dumb at all. Sheri
