The latest announcement from Ubisoft is not Michael Jackson's first game, but it's the first MJ game to put motion sensing technology to good use - as long as you can follow his lightning moves, that is.

The company has announced the development of an interactive game dedicated to Michael Jackson, and calls it a “family entertainment at its best”. The players will be able to “re-live his most iconic performances through their own singing and dancing”, although we’re not sure whether the users’ singing and dancing will be set in courtroom settings and feature angry crowds as well.

The game will feature classic tracks like Beat It and Billy Jean and will come with the latest in the motion sensing technology. Ubisoft lists support for both Kinect and PlayStation Move, but judging by the initial reports, we’re yet to see how they fare.

The game is announced for holiday 2010 and will come out for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii and DS.
