Dancing

Moonwalking, robo-boogie and Safety Dance

Alright, let`s get it on.

I want some people on the stage! Come on up to the stage! I want you dance!

One of Coub`s main features is the ability to add your own soundtrack to the original video.

So, the desire to create one`s own dancing videos came to existence just naturally. Basically all coubs are to some extent musical videoclips, so it didn`t take long before some crazy dancing coubs started to emerge. Gaming dancing coubs were no exception.

The most obvious idea is to take a video with dancing gaming characters and trim the best part out of it. So here comes Elizabeth from BioShock Infinite, the eternal queen of a Dancing Coub. Her first dance of freedom with its looped animation was just meant to become a coub.

Alright, that was easy. But how about using the same video sequence but with completelly different (and completelly suitable) soundtrack?

And why do we have to stick to the original dance sequence, when we can easily create our own?

Here is some more of Michael Jackson. The troopers perform the Zombie-dance from ‘Thriller’ masterfully. Who cares that they are actually dying in this sequence?

This track is truly electrifying.

And so is this one.

And these marines could have formed a really decent boys-band (if they hadn`t been ripped to tiny bleeding pieces by the Hydralisk who attacked them right after they finished peforming).

Apart from drinking whiskey and pulling the cybernetic limbs out of their owners` sockets Adam Jensen appears to be a gifted dancer (please don`t tell anybody that he`s just changing the combat stance in this video).
