DanceDanceRevolution (PS3 & Xbox 360) (International)

...uuuummmm last time i played Ultramix/hottest Party 2, the load times for the previews were still pretty slow to me...

...almost like X CS, BUT it would be nice to have a much faster time for song previews

Hey, did you guys hear that GH5 is planning on actually releasing ALL of the songs from the game when you buy it? That's crazy! I wouldn't want to get a game where i buy it and i already get what i want...wait....

...let me put it this way, i would rather like to go through the entire game, working my butt off to unlock new songs and whatever instead of just getting it the first time i turn the game on. For me, it makes the game more valuable and worth the money you had to cash out to pay for it. Plus, it would take a lesser time for you to get bored of the game instead of having a game where you go through a storyline/whatever to unlock new things...

...on the other hand, GH5 will allow you to transfer ALL of your songs from GH:WT and you can play them...

I hope DDR Vol. 1 doesn't do anything like this, sure i DO want to play the classics/new songs/whatever songs we get, but i would rather like to go through something and work my way for it than to just get it initially...

[/small rant]

(I really couldn't think of anything bad to say about the PS2 versions to finish the joke :c )

Hmm... I never minded the original announcer or the one present from MAX to SuperNOVA2. Anything is better than the new one for DDR: Black Edition A.K.A. Dance Dance Revolution X.

You know something I'd love? Konami including a re-imagining of the original announcer they used up until 5thMIX. I ALWAYS loved that guy.

"You're BEAUTIFUL!"

Not to mention the expenses that will go down when you've only got one sound team, graphic team, etc. etc. Sales are important, but if you can cut your expenses, you can make an even bigger profit with smaller sales. This game will not cost a lot to make, especially if a majority of the songlist is just old Konami Originals.

It isn't Thomas Howard. I think we've gone over this a few quadrillion times. But yeah, Londell Hicks was cool. That guy from Ozomatli (sp) was probably drafted in to try and attract a newer, non-existant audience.

4 platforms with 90 songs, 10 of which would be unique, would give us a total of 120. It's cheaper, but each platform gets more songs. It's not like each will have 15 new licenses or anything.

Maybe now Konami can get some decent licenses too.

[I hope they can try getting some more classic songs into the songwheel (like from the 90's and before).

DDR Extreme USA, anyone? Anyone? No? Ok.!

Thomas Howard was the announcer until 5thMIX, and this Londell guy did DDRMAX to SuperNOVA 2. Thomas Howard is credited as the voice of the announcer in at least one of the game manuals and in interview if I recall. Do you have something that says otherwise?

I have many memories of people yelling "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" when this topic's usually brought up.

Here's an idea...

Since DDR X AC has the ability to share edits of songs over e-amuse, why not put that function onto DDR Vol. 1 through the PSN/Xbox Live/Nintendo Wi-fi networks?

it will work just like the DDR X AC, you make the edit, put it over the network, most plays gets you to the top of the list, etc., etc.

Software and programing issues for different consoles might be a problem though. Like how Live & PSN can;t play the same games together. But what do I know?

just because he listed all of them doesnt mean he is saying they should work cross platform. make it like GHTunes where they upload to the server but you can only download for your system.
