How to unlock the Perfectionist - Gold achievement in Just Dance 3 - Definitive Guide

The achievement description may be slightly misleading. Not only do you have to finish any song with 90% of "Perfect" moves, but you also have to follow the rules of the 'Perfectionist-Silver' achievement and pass each move with a "Good" or better.

Fortunately though, I can confirm that this achievement can be unlocked while playing with the "Short Song" option selected from the Settings Menu.

This makes any given song much shorter, making it slightly easier.

Find a song that you feel comfortable scoring well, and count out how many scoring moves are in the song. From here, you can determine how many "Goods" you can get and still have 90% Perfects. (For example, I got my achievement on "Everybody Dance Now". I counted out 71 moves, so I knew I had to miss 7 or fewer Perfects for the achievement to unlock)

Remember though, any "Oks" and the achievement is forfeit.

Good solution, I tried 'Everybody dance now' but kept getting around 9 goods...I did it on 'Are you gonna go my way', there's 131 moves so more moves to do, but more scope for error, and once you manage to get the 'hand waving' section sorted, the 'diagonal arm' moves are so easy to perfect you can breeze through it ;)

I originally tried doing it on "going my way", and I had enough perfects to get the achievement, but there was one move that gave an ok everytime, even though I was doing it right (I get perfect for the same move in other parts of the song). Must be a sensor issue on my part. Glad to know it is not a universal issue.

simple: you can use the combination of: "are you gonna go my way" + "short song" setting + "easy" difficulty, then you receive all as perfect :)

nice right?! :)

good luck!!

I just want to add to what Johnny Sinister wrote, which is all true.

After trying several songs and missing one or two moves inexplicably (I.E., repetitive moves that are all of the sudden "ok" after being "perfect" every other time), I decided to try "Party Rock" and I got it the first time.

I normally don't get too excited after popping hard achievements, but this one warranted a guttural "F**K YEAH!!!", after I finally got it.

I think why this song works better than some of the others, is that there are more exaggerated moves, wherein your arms are spread out and more clearly seen. Some way easier songs like "Are You Gonna Go My Way" have moves where your arms are placed in front of your body, making it hard for the Kinect to pick up.

ALright. I spent a lot of time doing 'Party Rock' and could never seem to do it, one of the moves wouldn't register. And I did Make you wanna sweat and boy did I sweat...

This is how I finally got it when I wasn't even trying for it.

I was using the three chair and me method on Halloween to try to get 4 different styles. I had myself set to EASY.

The chairs I used filled most of their screen and I was the pumpkin. I simply danced okay, as it is a simple song and the game gave me a great mark or better for all moves. Since there are 4 players the game is a lot more gracious with the scoring and has a harder time seeing errors as everyone is crowded together.

You need to play a song almost perfectly, gaining at least a Good rating for every move. The choice of song is largely personal, since you will do better on the song that matches your personal style of dance and/or music.

The important thing to remember is that Just Dance does not really track your body. It only tracks your right hand, the one holding the Move Controller. This is represented onscreen as the highlighted hand of the dancer you are following. You need to focus on that hand and make sure that the moves mirror the dancers exactly. Don’t worry too much about moving your legs or body with the dancer, but I do find it helpful to move both arms to keep the rhythm of the song better.

Use the pictograms to your advantage as well. Once you have played a song several times, the pictograms will mean more, and they can help you remember the order of the moves and show you what is coming up next. Playing the song a few times in a row will definitely help with remembering what is coming up next, a critical lifeline, since being late on a single move will mean restarting and trying again.

The timing of your moves is critical, so make sure that the system is properly calibrated, and go back to and change the calibration to suit your needs. Calibration is found in the Extras Menu, then Sound, and finally Sound Calibration.

If you do mess up, there is a restart button in the pause menu, but it may be worthwhile to play the song all the way through so you know all of the problem areas.
