    She's a very kinky girl, the kind you don't take home to mother -- unless mama wanna dance! Dance Central adds old- and new-school tracks tomorrow, February 15, with songs from Rick James and Missy Elliott for 240 MSP ($3) apiece. Funk and disco are respectively represented by a pair of undoubted classics: Rick James' "Super Freak" and Chic's hit "Le Freak." More modern flavor gets mixed in with MIssy Elliott's "We Run This," from her 2005 album The Cookbook. It's not the most desirable dance track we'd like to see from the hip-hop beat master's repertoire, but it's a start. There's also a track from Amerie -- don't feel bad if the name doesn't ring any bells -- and she, too, has a couple of other tracks that'd be nice to see available in Dance Central at some point.

    The tips just keep on coming in today, and I love it! Less work for me!We knew that Lumines II would feature some "pretty famous artists". Buena Vista Games just sent out a press releases and mentioned these songs and boy they are pretty famous: * Beck Black Tambourine * Black Eyed Peas Pump It * Chemical Brothers Star Guitar * Fatboy Slim Gangster Trippin * The Go! Team Bottle Rocket * Gwen Stefani Hollaback Girl * Hoobastank Born to Lead * Junior Senior Take My Time * Missy Elliott Lose Control * New Order TBDTwo additional songs will also appear on the games soundtrack: * Junkie XL Breezer * Stigmato Inc Reality CheckIf this list is indeed true, it appears that Lumines II will be hitting for a much more mainstream crowd. I'm still waiting for more Japanese music to pop up, but for now, I'll take whatever Lumines-related info I can get.[Thanks steve!]
