    Is this the only game on Xbox One that requires Kinect so far?

    Also, Just Dance 2014 and 2015 use Kinect heavily, but I'm not sure if it's required.

    Anyway, buying this tomorrow. So excited, asI just finally completed Just Dance 2014. =D

    "The game will support importing of songs that were previously purchased for earlier Dance Central titles."

    So, I assume this only applies to the Xbox 360 version which will be coming out in the future? Otherwise, I don't see how DLC purchased for the 360 can move over to the Xbox One since they don't exist in the Xbox One Marketplace in the first place.

Gets to the screen about online downloads are not rated by the ESRB or whatever and then crashes to dashboard.

    Well, considering they're multiplatform games on PlayStation and Wii too, I'd say they somehow manage to work without Kinect. Nowhere near as well or as fun, I'm sure.

    Anyway, I've played Dance Central Spotlight for the past 90 minutes. It's awesome.

    Wouldn't PlayStation still use a camera?

    It only applies if the DLC is in the Xbox One store. So, for example, Gangnam Style by Psy will be downloadable if you purchased it for Dance Central 3 previously.

    No. They don't. At least not on Xbox. The only use a controller has is for the menu screens etc. It isn't like with guitar hero where you can use your controller.

    The wii uses the motion sensors in the remote and playstation uses the camera.

    Most kinect games on Xbox 360 won't even boot up without a kinect attached.
