"These games give fans a taste of what life on the road during a tour is all about and we're stoked to give players the feeling on what it's like to join us backstage, on the bus and performing live, making them feel like they're a member of our band," said Big Time Rush.

In Big Time Rush: Dance Party (Wii) players dance and sing along with Kendall, James, Carlos and Logan as the guys record their album, practice choreography and start touring on the way to the big concert.
