This game came out back in the late 90's (1998 to be specific) and I still play it hard! I love the different rhythms it contains. And the moves well... they are just awesome to look at and immitate. Addictive and fun. Love it!

Bust a Move to Bust a Groove!!!

This game is probably my all time favorite music game, 2nd only to Bust A Groove 2. While BAG1's music is drop dead catchy, and entertaining, BAG 2's scoring system improved on an already excellent game!

But this is a review of BAG 1. This game was the very first Playstation game I ever saw being played. My brother brought his Playstation and this game over to my house one Holiday, and I could not believe how much fun it was. It offers up multiple difficulty levels, and about 14 different characters. Some of the characters have to be unlocked. Each charcter has their own stage, with unlocked characters sharing the same stage with their bigger "brother" or "sister." My favorites are Shorty and Hamm.

This game has a very colorful interface. The female and male characters are quite enjoyable to watch perform. At some point you can even control the players moves, through a special training/Video phase, and its fun to see them move based on your controls.

Another feature I love is the fact that you can use a "jukebox" mode to listen to your favorite tune. So you can leave the music on, when you are studying or doing some other activity. Every song has a catchy beat, and it covers everything from American Pop to J-Pop to Rap (no bad words). However, Country is not represented, but I'm guessing most far east game makers aren't big fans of "Garth Brooks."

I'd give this 10 out of 10 stars, so you can double my scores above. I give it two very muscially inclined thumbs up!!! Hopefully you'll be able to raise your two thumbs after playing this very active, music inspired game!!!

The Grooviest Game EVER!

My cousin came to live with us, and she brought this game with her. I came home one day and she was playing it, so i said i would play with her. It was really easy to learn, and i loved it! I think the most awesome character is Shorty, and her level is my fav! I love this game so much, it is fun and easier than those dumb footpad ones, cuz you use the controller! I LOVE THIS GAME!

omg! Amazing!!

The game is set up like a 2-d fighting game. But instead of throwing punches, you dance. Sounds silly, I know. You can attack (only twice per stage), and the dance commands get harder as you play. The music is great though. There's J-Pop, Hip Hop, Techno, Disco, all sorts of genres. But all of it is great, I don't really like techno or pop, but I was singing along within minutes of listening.
The characters are also pretty interesting. Each has their own style of dance, and all are fun to watch. There's 10 characters (i think) and 4 more to unlock. They all have their own personality, attack, styles, etc, so it makes for a replayable and interesting game.
This is easily my favorite Playstation game I have ever played. I bought it 5 years ago and still play it to this very day. The game may be hard to pick up at first, but one you get the hang of it its a blast! ...

FANTASTIC

I was first introduced to Bust A Groove at a friend's house. I was immediately hooked. It's great fun w/ the best music you can ask for. I know all the songs and have them all on my computer! This is my all time favorite game and everyone should try it out. It's a little hard at first (especially if you don't play video games all that much) but you catch on pretty quick and it's a very addictive game. But that's ok cause it's awesome. The characters are cool too. I recommend it to anyone!

forty dollars!!!!!

bust a groove is not a good game at all it looks like a crummy cartoon with corny characters all you do is shoot little colored balls and you get points, it is not a good game at all to spend forty dollars on.There is different modes of play but they are all stupid, before you buy a game check it to see if its cool, if not drop it and just walk away.But this game ,I mean dont even pick it up it's not worth it

the most addictive game you will ever play!

This game is OK if you haven't played Dance Dance Revolution. I first got this game loving it but after the exposure to Dance Dance Revolution, who needs it? DDR's music does circles around BAG, and playing it with your feet is better excercise and far more fun than pressing buttons with your fingers. Buy a dance pad, Dance Dance Revolution, and be glad you read this.
