Boogie Playlist Has all My Least Favorites!

EA announced the song list for their Wii dance-aoke title Boogie just before the E3 deluge and I never got to post this. What I was going to say was that I’d like to thank EA for this list. I’ve been meaning for a while to compile a list of songs I never want to hear again in a dance/rhythm/karaoke game and this pretty much nails ’em all. Songs in bold are ones that gaming has forever tainted.

It’s kinda sad really. I was looking forward to Boogie but with nearly half the songs on my blacklist I might pass. If you have to unlock songs by repeatedly playing others I’m definitely out. Nods to Gypsy Kings though. It’s about time!
