Some mini games are better than others- my son and I enjoy the Jedi adventure story, and I'll admit to playing Rancor Rampage to blow off some steam now and then. The Galactic Dance Off is kind of silly, though. Sort of makes it feel cheesy and cheap, (jar jar binks style, if you know what I mean), but I suppose they wanted it to be fun for everyone of all ages and interests, so kudos to the developers for doing exactly that!
If I may admit, when starting the Jedi adventure and being trained to use a light saber, I started to really get sucked into it. The Jedi Master instructed me on screen to reach for my light saber (which flew into my avatar's hand), and feel its weight as I swing it around. I did that, and for a moment I felt like "Aw yeah, I can feel it!". Tons of fun!

As a wife and as a mom of 3 kids, I spend a lot of time shopping for deals on the best products out there for my family. It's important to me that if we're spending our hard earned money that we get a top notch product in return. I often rely on the reviews and opinions of others when contemplating purchasing a new product that I haven't tried before myself. Because of that, any products that I buy (whether on Amazon or from a 3rd party) I always make sure to leave a detailed review of the product to help others when selecting items to purchase, as well. My family tests these products fully before forming a solid opinion and writing a review. When I write a review, I keep in mind that those reading are also looking for honesty about the product and want an unbiased opinion to go by. If my review has been helpful to you, please give me a "Yes" vote on my review. Thank you!
All things considered, I have not had more fun with a video game. Thus far, my son and I have made significant progress through the "Dark Side Rising" campaign, and have wreaked serious havoc as rancors in Mos Eisley, Theed, Mos Espa, and Felucia (there are different rancor species at each locale, and even a flying rancor). "Duel of Fates" is good practice for lightsaber duels and very soon, we will try our hand (hands, really) at pod racing and the Galactic Dance-Off, but we are having way too much fun swinging our lightsabers.
The primary complaint of most reviewers, that the lightsaber action is not completely realistic, is well founded. At the same time, that does not make any sense, and I would encourage everyone to read why this must be so at http://www.gamesradar.com/high-horse-stop-asking-11-star-wars-lightsaber-game/. The game often controls when and where you turn so that you are automatically directed toward remaining enemies. At the same time, you definitely control when you swing your lightsaber, and faster swings with broader strokes appear to translate to harder strikes and greater damage to enemies (those daggone Trandoshans in particular seemed to go down more easily with these kinds of hits). Moreover, the simultaneous ability to fight with your lightsaber and use the Force to grab and throw objects or enemies makes for extremely interesting (and challenging) gameplay, but doing both can make you much more effective.
For both the Dark Side Rising campaign and Rancor rampage, you swing, step, kick, jump, twist, and otherwise move your entire body. The battle action of the DSR campaign is punctuated by interludes, spacefights, and "obstacle-course"-like challenges, which were all welcome breaks from the non-stop dueling, but, when engaged with the proper enthusiasm, you will definitely get a serious workout. For fun, health, and family bonding, I am seriously loving this game and being able to rule the galaxy as father and son.
When we've engaged the other gameplay modes, I'll post an update. Keep the limitations of this game in perspective, and you will love it, too!
