DDR

[myoga]

I may be new here,but im a long time anime fan,and yet i noticed that you haven't mentioned this,considering every anime convention ive been to,they have had DDR (Dance Dance Revelution) compotitions,yet,you havent mentioned that game from what i saw.

[Superchop]

Well, the games section is pretty new...it was added only within the past week...so there wouldn't be too many threads talking about it...

as for myself...i can't dance...i have no rythmn...so playing DDR is out of the question

[daliinn]

Thats partly because the games forum is fairly new. It was just created the other day.

I have noticed that there is a huge DDR craze, i don't really see whats so great about it, but iv never played it so i have no place to argue.

[GipFace]

I'm not too bad from a casual standpoint ... passing most single 8 footers and a bunch of single 9s. For double, I can do up to 6.

Although from a competitive standpoint, I suck because I can't do a sustained perfect attack too well. I usually have a 75/25 perfect/great ratio.

Have I passed any Oni courses? Nah (but I've come close on Naoki Standard). Have I passed any of the Max songs on Heavy? Nah.

Meh, I don't see why people hype DDR over the rest of the Bemani games so much. I personally like BeatMania better, hee hee.

[myoga]

i admit i suck,but i have met more people who have goten over 300 perfect on end of the century than i have colecting and owning 30 love hina graphic novels(its bad enogh i know one)

DRR my fav arcade game. I`v been playing it for exactly one year. I`m not that good but im not bad either. But I love this game I spend around 10$ each time I go, each game costs 75cents. heh i know its 2 much but I like to shake it

DDR was really big 2 years ago, but I've noticed that people are starting to lose intrest. Kids still play it non-stop though. I like watching them dump 10 bucks into a ddr machine and go at it. Have you seen what the new thing that they are coming out with ? Karaoke Revolution. Thats right Karaoke..... If this goes into the arcades it will be the FUNNIEST thing that I've ever seen. Specially the part where you laugh your ass off at the people who cant sing .

I firmly place those blasted 20 pounds on that DDR machine.

As silly as it may be, I continue to play that game, easily burning $20/wk, but it does seem to work

[Hellychan]

Before I first tried it, I wasn't really excited about DDR, but from the time I began to play, I've become a DDR-addicted

I used to like playing DDR alot, I used to be able to do 5-6 foot songs(Trick), but one day my dog bit up the cable to my home dance pad I just stopped playing and I never did play at golfland too much so I just stopped. I did buy another dance pad, but for some reason I just don't feel like playing much anymore. Here are the DDR games I got(there all for PS1):

Dance Dance Revolution (first one, english)
Dance Dance Revolution 3rd Mix (japanese)
Dance Dance Revolution 4th Mix (japanese)

It's nice to have a DDR at home. You can practice whenever you want. Even if the arcade is better, its still nice. My cousin has DDR Ultramix on the Xbox but he still didn't buy the dance pad. When he will, his house is gonna be a paradise for me

[zalas]

Personally, the fun part of DDR is creating new moves

[myoga]

from what i saw,everyone who has replyed here likes DDR more or less,but what do you feel about para para dancing,(if youve hered of it)its made from the same company.

[StarCreator]

Urgh...

Para para is NOT a Konami invention - it's an attempt to hop on to a popular form of dance in Japan at the time. Unfortunately for Konami, they released Para Para Paradise (Para Para Dancing in Korea) as the dance was phasing out - the game performed dismally in sales, and only barely made it to a 2nd incarnation (which was not only graphically inferior, it was also never released as a home version).

Since it was targetted to the para para mainstream, the game lacks any kind of difficulty. I was easily passing the most difficult sequences within hours of the first play. And even then, I could have just flailed my arms randomly to pass it, the machine couldn't have cared less about the timing. The sensors are inaccurate to the point that there is no technical value to the game, and the game quite simply gets old fast.

so right,but the real scary part abot it is not that its easy,but some people who acctualy get into the game (unbelivably more like it)look,for lack of a better word, queer

You dont know how many people you just pissed off . Now when no one likes you in the forum dont come looking to me for an answer :fingers:

I LOVE DDR!! I remember watching everyone at Otakon playing when everyone was stuck in this little small room. I loved it so much that I bought the 1st English release and the pads. Afterwards I also purchased the rest of the American releases as well as the Japanese versions that ranged from the 2nd mix to the 5th mix. I'm still saving up money to get a converter to acquire the last 3 Japanese versions.

i understand that i may have made some people angry,but when i saw someone who was REALY into it,they looked a little odd.then again,i think it may hae been the same person i saw cosplaying as a maid at a convention.(no offence ment to anyone.i forgot to add this note on my last post and i appologise)

[Lst2touchdasky]

my sisters love the game- Personally i have no opinion of it- it's a good a idea for a game, im just way to stiff to play ;p
