Max 300 and Unlimited are nowhere NEAR gimmicks. ESPECIALLY when you compare them to crap like Chaos, HDV, and FaxX.

Songs are not hard enough, the only REALLY hard song is Pluto Relinquish.
Konami is running out of songs, so their just scrapping old ones with new ones.
Konami is losing it right now, Roxor has ITG3 and is whooping DDR now.
I hope Konami can keep me playing DDR, cause it's getting boring

Being an 8 year veteran, I could agree with the whole DDR scene shift. Back when ITG didn't come along, there wasn't as much whoring for good scores. Sure we had players who wanted to get really good scores and stuff, but it wasn't as competitive as now. Never did we have people kicking machines whenever they got a single great, and freestyle was just as big as tech.

Now it is somewhat more annoying. Never did I see so much drama for scores.

But I digress far t his is an anti-DDR thread. I dunno what else to apply to this conversation.

Things I'm not lovin' about DDR right now:

1. The weird obsession with eighth-note jumps present in the newer mixes, starting around Supernova. Sure, they were there before (End of the Century?), but in the newer games, they're EVERYWHERE. They really break up the flow of a stepchart when they're overused like that. I'm talking about songs like Flow (Jammin' Ragga), Feelings Won't Fade, the newer La Bamba, and many others.

2. Lack of background videos. Extreme 2 did it right. Disney Channel did it right.

3. The new tens. They're just a little much, I think. I've seen people play Max 300 SMMM Oni in the arcade, and I've seen people play Trip Machine Phoenix Oni Doubles in the arcade. I'm afraid to touch these songs even with stable arcade pads and a bar to grab in an emergency. When you buy the home version, Konami gives you a soft pad and tells you to pass these things.

4. Whoever rated the stepcharts in Supernova 2. I can pass Maxx Unlimited (ten feet) but not Paranoia Hades trick mode (eight feet)? That seems a little fishy.

Other than that, I don't really have too many issues with the game. And as someone who enjoys easier, more fun stepcharts, those problems hardly matter at all, except the background videos thing.

Eh. I wish there were more slow, reading-challenge tens. Bag was fun.

One of the things I hate the most related to DDR is the Fanboish comunity. The people who would kill you if they see you use speed mods or the bar. They were put there for a reason: to be used, if it doesn't disqualify you, it's legal. So what if you hate to read thightly packed arrows that take half an hour to get to the top of the screen.

The beginner mode, it has a retarded background dancer that always brings his feet back to the middle and all of the newbs play that way. When you try to talk to them, they say: If the character does it then it's the right thing to do.

The new formula to make a ten footer, bigger speed changes and more retarded crossovers. Seriously, it was ok on PS and on PSMO but it got out of control on SN.

The dedis. They suck at every aspect compared to ITG's. The sound is crappy, the sensors suck even if the cab is new, the screen is frking small and the arrows blend with the background what ever arows you use.

The syncing is just horrible, enough said.

The lack of e-amuse (probably spelled it wrong) if we would have more official ways to keep our scores on DDR, I would probably play it more to get the boss songs enabled all the time. But no, nothing for us stupid North Americans.

The recycled songs, a lot of them come from other bemani AC and in America, we get crappy pop music with even more crappier stepcharts. And having a bit more than J-Pop in arcades would be cool too.

Yeah, if you read all of this, you probably realised that I love ITG way more than DDR, R21. But even though, I can still enjoy a few rounds of Extreme when I go to the Cinema. I have started on DDR but I have evolved to ITG

Gotta agree with most of what FwAnkY Bouy said. It shouldn't matter if someone uses a bar, or uses speed mods. But people are so obsessed, and usually so jealous (though this isn't always the case, sometimes people have somewhat legitimate reasons) that they need to find something wrong with how people play. And I also hate how beginner players never seem to listen to advice. Most of the time when I try to tell people to not return to the center, they get pissed for no reason and tell me to %@*& off. Or if they don't get pissed, they just say "BUT DATS WUT DA BAKGRUND DNCER DUZ".

Regarding SuperNOVA dedicabs, I've only played on two that were as good as an Extreme, pad condition-wise. Then again, I've also played on Extremes that were just as bad as a Supernova dedicab.
