Gameplay

Wii

The Wii version of the game features Just Dance -style gameplay, thus serving as a spin-off title. There are three modes of gameplay in this version. The first mode of gameplay is "Classic" where all players follow Michael Jackson's choreographed routine on-screen. The second mode of gameplay is "Duo" which is used for duets (e.g., "The Girl Is Mine") or videos with two main characters (e.g., "The Way You Make Me Feel" and "In the Closet"). Two players take the role of Michael, while the other two play as the other character. The third mode of gameplay is "Crew", which features Michael and two backup dancers. One player dances as Michael, while the other three are the backup dancers, or if optional, all players play as the backup dancers. All pictograms in this game move from bottom to top. After performing songs, players are able to unlock training videos in the "Dance School" where they are taught some of the more difficult moves from several of Michael's music videos and stage performances.

Nintendo DS

The Nintendo DS version features gameplay similar to Elite Beat Agents . In this version, there is a cartoon version of Michael Jackson on the top screen and the player follows along by tapping the bottom screen with the stylus to the rhythm of the music. Also in the Nintendo DS version, there is an Anti-Piracy/Copy protection feature created by Ubisoft that will freeze the game and replace the audio with the sound of vuvuzelas (popularized by the South Africans in World Cup 2010) if the player is playing a pirated or ROM version of the game. [6]

PlayStation Portable

In the PlayStation Portable version, the player follows Michael by pressing the action buttons when it hits the circle. The gameplay style and songs are the same as the DS version, but there are more songs than the DS version of the game, such as "Will You Be There" and "Rock with You". There is still the Show Time part of each song, but when the player spins a wheel to light up Michael's stage, it is replaced with the screen telling the player to press the L and R buttons as fast as possible.

Kinect

The Kinect version of the game includes full body motion technology and judges on how well the moves are done. Michael Jackson Experience Kinect.jpg
The Kinect version of the game includes full body motion technology and judges on how well the moves are done.

The Kinect version of the game features full body tracking, and an entirely different choreography from the Wii version, meaning like the Dance Central series, [7] along with several other changes and additions. This version uses a technology called Player Projection, which puts the player's own image in the game allowing them to star in their own Michael Jackson video. The Kinect version includes two game modes: "Solo" and "Party". Solo mode features one player. Party mode features 2-4 players. There are two options in Party mode: "Co-Op" and "Battle". Co-Op mode is an "every player for themselves" mode as players take turns jumping in and jumping out in order to complete the song. Battle mode is a team mode where two teams face off to get the highest score. Battle mode is a little different from Co-Op mode as each team performs the song together and the song gets broken down into two parts in which one player dances and the other player sings. Party mode only features Dance Mode, Performance Mode and Master Performance Mode. There are four symbols to represent each player: Michael's glove, Michael's hat, Michael's shades and one of Michael's jackets. Several of the songs in the game do not feature any moves to perform, instead becoming "Singing Only" songs, with "Earth Song" being the first song confirmed as Singing Only. There are certain songs that have moves that can be taught in a practice mode called "MJ School". During each performance, a crown pops up above the player's head and the player must hit the crown to activate "King Power" before it fades away. The crown, appearing only once per song, will multiply the score by 8. Similar to the Wii version, the player is scored on how well they sing and dance. The player can get five different grades: "Perfect", "Good" and "OK" increases the player's score, while "Almost" and "Miss" may cause the player to lose their current score. Points add up at the end of each song along with the rating of stars the player receives and a photo the player takes during their performance. Players can either use the Kinect's built-in microphone, an attached mic/headset or the Xbox 360 Wireless Microphone for karaoke (much like the Lips series). [7] The game does include the option, however, to choose a "Dance Only" version of the song, which means the player will not be asked to sing. [7] The Kinect version also features a mode known as Master Performance, which requires the player to both sing and dance to a set of choreographed moves that are harder than the normal moves and "as close as possible to the videos". [8]

PlayStation 3

The PlayStation 3 version features the same gameplay as the Wii version. In addition to the singing and dancing functionalities found in the Kinect version, this version allows the player to sing or dance at the same time as other players. [9] There is also the option to record the video clips or take pictures of the player's performance, and allows the player to save or upload them to sites, such as Facebook. In this version of the game, all the songs from the Wii version are included, but new songs such as "Stranger in Moscow" and "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" are added, making it slightly different to the Wii version of the game.

Nintendo 3DS

In the Nintendo 3DS version, there is a CGI version of Michael on the top screen, and the player draws different shapes with the stylus on the bottom screen to follow along.

PlayStation Vita and iOS

The PlayStation Vita and iOS versions were ported with Improved graphics in HD, Multiplayer (AD-Hoc), Trophy Support, Motion Sensor support, Multi-touch support, and instead of taking off the on-screen notes, it was replaced with the ability to use the rear touch pad for an even harder challenge and since its use the multi-touch, the difficulty has been given an upgrade to increase the challenge. The PS Vita and iOS versions, compared to the 3DS version, have been given a whole new look in graphics and resolution, with the player being able to use their finger instead of a 3DS stylus. The Vita and iOS versions do not have any downloadable content.

All of the songs from the album Invincible are excluded from the game.

In the Wii version of the game, "Money" is incorrectly credited as a song from the album Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix which was released in 1997. This would be true if the song in the game was the remix but it is the original version of the song, released on HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I in 1995.

"Another Part of Me" is exclusive to copies of the game sold by Walmart.

Development

Roughly two weeks after Michael Jackson's death in 2009, MJ Productions announced that a Michael Jackson game had been in development for several months. [10]

The game was displayed at New York Comic Con at Ubisoft's booth.

Reception

Michael Jackson: The Experience was met with generally mixed reviews, with most of them citing the varied differences between the different versions of the game. The reviews for the DS and PSP versions were above average, with a slightly better score for the DS version. IGN gave a 6.5/10 for DS [31] and 5.5/10 for the PSP. [32] Destructoid gave a 6/10 for the DS version. [33]

IGN gave the Wii version a 3.5 saying that it does not give clear instructions on how to dance and also criticized the controls. [32] Metro gave it 5/10, describing it as "perfectly good party fun if you don't care that the controls don't work." [34] VideoGamer.com gave the review a 7/10, stating that the music overplays the responsiveness difficulty. [35] CNET gave the game 5/5, writing that the game is "extremely easy to pick up and play" and "the choreography is amazing" [36] The Escapist gave the game 4/5, noting that the game "is not meant to be played by yourself". [37]

Eurogamer thought that the dance routines in the Xbox 360 game "feel a little slower and more simplistic than those in the PS3 game". [9]
