DanceDanceRevolution (PS3 & Xbox 360) (International)

really hope so, that's ANOTHER thing bothering me with this :/

Well, in preparation for the event (I'll be leaving in an hour and a half)
YT channel:

Flickr (all pictures I take will go here):

Twitter (some text based updates):

High(er) quality videos will be put up when I return from the event, but I'll try to get a couple up whilst there. Flickr and Twitter will probably be the things I use most to get info out.

You must have extremely blurry vision.

There is no way to look the conference in streaming ?

Heh:

I might try it at some point, I'll twitter if I do. It's not very good quality though, I figure taking local videos and then putting them on Youtube will be more satisfying for most.

Okay thanks

Btw it's a 1AM (French Time) so i can't watch X_X. Have to wait tomorrow
I'll go give your links to friends

New arrows are sex. The current arrow design is now 12 years old, they needed an overhaul when everything around them was going high res. They look like ITG arrows with round edges and brighter colours (imokaywiththis.jpg). I especially like that the blocks around the diagonal arrows are gone, even if they re-tooled Octo into Move with a bit of HOTTEST PARTY gimmickry thrown in for good measure.

So a substantial amount of new music means this is not a console port of X2 anymore... or even HP3. Figures. The way the game elements are presented this looks very faithful to the ULTRAMIX/UNIVERSE way of doing things, especially the arrow "lanes".

Konami really needs to not rely on so much flash to build a website, wrapping every damn thing in it makes the site clunky. I'm also amused at how much all this promo stuff must have costs Konami. They must've had so much left over after making the game absolutely perfect and complete. But it's okay, we've got a good idea of why this game was delayed and I personally think it was time well spent.

The game has DLC too, so some of the HP3/X2 stuff might appear as that. I'd rather have all new content on disc if that is the case.

I'm really curious where Konami is going to take this. The new arrows are ok (anything is better than the old SM4 ripoff ones). Seeing no dancers on a stage in the background is also a disappointment.
I was really hoping for an arcade port
Remembering back from the first trailer, maybe, JUST maybe they will have an X2 theme.

---

Rather disappointed that it's not DDR X2 but let's see what they do with it...

Bad konami!, bad!... We want the AC DDR X2 port to PS3, not this...

I bet some of the 30 "new" KO's are gonna be X2 stuff, so don't worry about it. if not, then just shoot me.

---

Sure, it may not be X2, but I really like how this version looks.

Yeah that's what I'm looking at now. We haven't seen a songlist yet so who knows what will happen.
If we get the X2 songs, I will be satisfied.

---

This version looks "unappealing", yet we won't be able to JUDGE this game until we see gameplay of it.

Example (not a good one but eh, whatever):

When DJ Hero 2 started to come out with info, we were able to get a sneak peak as to what the interface looked like, the interface was, IMO, an EXTREMELY sexy looking interface (all white, crisp, clean, fluid, just an awesome interface). The modes and the music were just amazing.

with DDR PS3, i am guessing that a LOT of us thought this would be the DDR X2 AC port (which i have a hunch it will be the DDR PS3 JP version). But ALL we have seen now is just screens and a trailer. So we really don't know how this game is going to play out UNTIL TONIGHT.

This version has potential, it all comes down to it whether or not having that "DDR" appeal that X2 AC seemed to have when it first came out.

WAiring outside now

I saw your picture on Flickr. Looks like a long line...

But it will be all worth it, right?

Not moving either

Only one solution.

Cut the line.

Or maybe get everyone to start two parallel lines to give you the illusion that you're actually closer than you are?

Konami set up a ustream for the party tonight, check it out!
