Exclusive contest: Win "Michael Jackson: the Experience" game for Xbox 360 Kinect!
We are huge fans of the new Michael Jackson The Experience Game for XBox 360 Kinect, and have a copy to give away to one reader. This is the only dance video game featuring Michael Jackson's music and is choreographed by Steve Bolton, the choreographer for Blueprint Crew (ABDC5 runners-up). The Xbox 360 version of Michael Jackson The Experience uses the Kinect’s built-in camera to capture the player and put them into the game on-screen dancing on a variety of interactive stages inspired by Michael’s music videos and stage performances. The multiplayer party mode allows up to four players to join-in as individually or in teams of two. This video shows some behind the scenes with the game creators (including Bolton) and some game scenes. Click here for the game's official Facebook page which contains tons of information, links, and fan feedback, and click here for the game's official website.
HOW TO WIN: leave a comment here telling us your favorite Michael Jackson song and which ABDC crew or dancer (from any season) you'd most like to see dancing it. I'll pick one commenter at random and award them the game. IMPORTANT: use a memorable and unique commenter name so that I can identify you as the winner! Deadline: midnight June 6, 2011. Good luck!

Dance's Review of ABDC's Kanye West/Last Chance Challenges
Hey everyone!! Phunk Phenomenon and IaMmE definitely performed their hearts out on the ABDC stage! It was an epic battle! Phunk will always be remembered for this performance! I wish they could have been in the final 2 along with IaMmE. Phunk out-danced IaMmE in the first battle, but in the Last Chance Challenge IaMmE blew my mind with a genius performance! Click here to read the full review.

Send some love to Phunk Phenomenon!
From Ninjaboi: No doubt about it. Phunk Phenomenon has some of the best new style choreography from any crew on the show. They have mad energy and passion for what they do. They are also one of the most versatile crews ever to be on the show. While most good crews have one, two, maybe three styles that all their members excel at, all of Phunk's members are EXCELLENT at many different foundational styles: Bboy, Locking, Popping, Housing, New Style Choreo, Stepping - I wouldn’t be surprised if they also knew some krump, contemporary, ballroom, or whatever. The list goes on.
Not only are they awesome dancers, they’re also great individuals. Not only are they friendly people who appreciate their fans, but they’re also doing something good with their dancing to fight San Filippo syndrome with Hip Hop for Hope. There is no doubt in my mind that they could hold their own against any champion on the show, that they are one of the dominant forces on the East Coast dance scene, and no doubt whatsoever that they are the best East Coast crew ever to be on the show, bar none.
Please leave a comment if you want to leave a positive message for Phunk Phenomenon. If you have anything else to say about them or anything else having to do with ABDC, please take it to the Party Room/Critics Corner. All non-relevant comments here will be deleted.
