I love this game. My brother got it for his birthday today. Plus 2 dance pads (they are Wal-Mart's $20 pads). I have it on the computer (Stepmania) and I have excelled greatly on it. Passing every Max song on Heavy with at least a C (Except Max Period).

Now the pads are a different story. I'm having to learn how to use my feet instead. I've only played for about 4 hours total using the pad, but I just beat Maxx Unlimited on Standard.

I'm just wondering how good anyone else here is. Or if anyone else has even played it.

Ah DDR...pure fun. Course I'm very uncoordinated, so I suck...but yeah. I'm also horrible at FFR. But I still play for the music. And for anyone who doesn't know, FFR is Flash Flash Revolution, the keyboard equivilent of DDR. www.flashflashrevolution.com

DDR's a really fun game, I got Konamix about a year ago for Playstation original.  Only problem was we ordered some dance mats online (I believe that playing it on the controller sorta ruins the point) that were supposed to be high quality so I wouldn't have to worry about maintenance or them tearing up or anything... yeah, they broke after a couple weeks of near-constant usage, and the company we got them from didn't respond to any of our e-mails and very soon after took the mats we got out of stock.  Kinda annoying, so I haven't really done all that much with it since.

And I was just getting somewhat decent too :? ... I could actually pass six and seven foot songs (out of nine feet, I think, maximum difficulty)

I don't own any version of DDR, tis what happens when you only own nintendo systems and a computer that can't handle stepmania.

Anyway, I'm quite good at the game now, nothing amazing, but there are very few songs i can't finish on Max 1 and 2.

note: assume everything is on Heavy, and being done with my feet.

Only songs on max 1 i can't beat is Max 300, Angelic Mix, and Rythm and police.  I know its just a little more practice till i can beat Rythm and Angelic Mix.

Max 2 has my personal fave song DDR song currently, Kakumei.  It has quite a few more songs that i can't beat however... So Deep, MaxX unlimited, End of the Century (not quite sure why) ...theres another one, i'd have to hear it again to remember, think its a 9-footer.

I have quite a few fave songs, Kakumei tops the list.
Kind Lady Interlude
Abyss
Break Down
Midnight Blaze
-Just about anything with loads of gallops-

I'm a huge fan of stream and gallops... amazingly fun game, wish i could own it though, great workout.

I like streams and gallops too. I would think that you like Burning Heat too. I like it but can't pass it yet. I come close though. I also love very fast songs such as Max'es and Break Down.

Umm... is there any particular reason Healing Vision(Slow-Fast) is on your list twice?  Do you just like it that much?

Healing Vision: Angelic Mix.

Angelic mix is tough, very fast song.  flows well, but its just tough on the legs.

Ouch. It's hard to play this game with a rolled ankle, sore knees, and shin splints.

And now to raise this topic from the dead with a wonderful little post.

I have completed my metal dance pad today. I haven't fixed all the kinks in it yet. The arrow don't rebound very quickly so it's hard to do songs with multiple taps in a row such as Abyss or Can't Stop Falling in Love. The other one is that the arrows are too "sunk in". I should add another layer of cardboard <_<. Other that that, it works great.

I'll edit this post with some pictures when I upload them. Keep in mind that this is a ghetto design with materials that were cheaply bought or received for free. Cost about 55$ total.

Yeah. Luckily all the wood and sheet metal was free. Hooray for parents who work at glass plants. <_< Weird, but that's where the metal came from.

I only had to buy the Acrylic, (wanted Lucite but I couldn't find any. They did have Lexan for 47$ 3'x3' sheet.) for 17$, 16 Stanley corner braces for 26$, and a lot of screws and some weatherstripping for a little over 10$.

Do you Take your shoes off When playing DDR?
I do. I take my shoes off cause I cant take the clomping sound on the Metal Dance Pad. I also take my socks off cause I dont want to risk slipping off the pad and falling on the ground(and yoshi getting it all on tape Shocked )
