MJ The Experience (actually… Inexperience)

MJ The Experience Cover for Wii Michael Jackson

Kaing MIKO!!!

Even though I suck at choreographed  dance moves somehow MJ The Experience is my favorite video game ever in life.  I hollerated in an earlier post about my lack of skills in the dancerie.  Word to Mary J. Blige, who coincidentally is a bad dancer.  Full circle.   If you have been living under a rock, basically the MJ The Experience is a game featuring Michael Jackson’s music and you must follow along with the choreography.  No offense if you actually do live under a rock, sometimes I can be insensitive.  Any-hoo…   I absolutely suck at this game with one major exception.  I am a beast at “Rock With You”  This is the only song on the entire game I will participate in on my own volition.  I made a gif just to show you the part of the choreography that I completely master with  precision.

that slide gives me sunshine on a cloudy day son!

 

 

No one except the ghost of the Pop of King himself can see me on that immaculate slide.  Dang, I mean King of Pop, but that does sound kind of cool, like a new soda or something.  Now don’t get me wrong, I have some issues with MJ The Experience game for Wii though.  First off, there are some really terrible dance numbers in the game.  Check these tweets out:

There is a tug of war sequence in the choreography that is the goofiest thing I have ever witnessed.

 

 

There are also a rack on rack on rack of songs on this game that are more obscure and not particularly danceable in my lil’ ol’ opinion.   For example, who immediately is checking for “Ghosts” and “Sunset Driver” to dance to?  Don’t worry.  I’ll wait.   Now, like I said before, I have to be coerced to dance to any songs other than “Rock With You” and because my friends are terrorists I am forced to dance to the hardest choreography on the game.  Yes, the terrorists win… le sigh.  I am glad no one has incriminating video of me fumbling through “Remember the Time” and “Thriller.”   Actually I wish they did so I could show you guys how bad I really am!  I sacrifice my dignity because I love y’all.

Have any of y’all played MJ The Experience?  What’s your signature song?
