News PQube Announces "Most Realistic Move Dancing Game"
No, it's not Let's Dance with Mel B 2
Some PlayStation Move dancing games are OK. Some, like Let's Dance with Mel B, are not OK. Here's hoping that PQube's new announcement Dance! It's Your Stage is better than that, at least.

News Sony Steps Back Into the Groove with DanceStar Party
Like SingStar, with a few differences
Last year's SingStar Dance wasn't a bad first effort at a Move-controlled dancing game, but the controller's capable of far more, so it's good news that Sony's London Studio is having a crack at a dedicated dancing title with DanceStar Party.
