The game is actually pretty good - part rhythm game and part puzzle game. If it was $5 I'd pick it up in a heartbeat, but $10 games need to go a bit further nowadays and not just 2d sprites dancing around. You compare this with Bionic Commando coming up at that price point and it's hard to justify the $10.

I thought this would be a Breakout clone. Speaking of that, the Breakout game on Live Arcade for the original Xbox was rather fun and should be brought to the 360.

I didn't get the game. First I'm hitting buttons and then I'm doing a puzzle game and then back to the button matching.. it's like the game is trying to distract me from how much it sucks.

I bought the game after 2 or 3 minutes of playing the demo. The combination of puzzle and beat stands out as a great idea. I dig the characters, thought not really "street", very appealing for pretty much anyone, I think. Good buy

XBLA is really losing out to PSN these days. Maybe in the upcoming month when some of the remakes and classics come out, but ms really needs to start screening for the experimental and exceptional original titles and stop trying to meet quota.

Very enjoyable game, I bought after two minutes into demo.

I downloaded Go! Go! Break Steady, it i a little better than what I expected. I will say ti is different, but reminds me of the cheer-leading game in Thrillville: Off the Rails. I enjoyed it just as much, but liked the humorous animations of the cheer-leaders. Go! Go! Break Steady would have been an instant buy, but I'm going to wait for my friends on this one. The demo is cool, the price point kinda stopped me from rushing off to EBGames to get a points card.

Anon 3 you are right, it does take a bit to get used to it, as if you hit the correct button before it is dead center you get AXED. The music is nice, I love it. Actually I just played each song in its entirety while I worked. IF I could find a steady partner on the weekends, I'd buy it.....

This could be my 'Boom Boom Rocket stand-in' for online play until the release an official one.

Can't be that good, it's nowhere to be found on xbox.com.

I wasn't sure if the puzzle/rhythm combination would work, but it actually does and makes for a pretty fun game. It is a bit tricky to get the hang of it in the beginning but the game definitely builds on you the more you play. All in all it is a fun game that is different. Definitely worth it especially over remakes.

I'm really surprised. I went into this expecting it to be a throw-away game and it's actually a lot of fun. Definitely going to pick it up along with the 1942 remake when I get some more points.

Its Zume + GH kinda, it would have been more interesting if they dropped Zuma though
