DanceDanceRevolution X (PS2) (North America)

Hey guys! i'm back!

so i got 82% of the game complete...

I have missed alot of stuff from here, but eh doesn't matter, SO DDR X = HOTNESS, i love the new X songs, the remaning SN2 songs, Horatio, Trigger , and the other boss songs.

The Xmix's are also one of my favorites, especially Xmix5 (Overcrush) =)

And that's about all i have to say really...i am really enjoying the game but here is a question: Has anyone reached 100% completion in the game yet? If so, how do you do it?

---

So, has anyone else noticed that Endless Mode will select songs you don't have unlocked for normal play? I just got headshot and lost quickly because I had it on 3x (I was even playing on controller, because it's too late at night to play on my feet now). But I don't have that song unlocked for normal game play.

What's headshot?

The Saber Wing remix is what he is referring to.

Okay, so I finally got around to watching some of the videos floating around YouTube...

- Taj He Spitz. With Binghi Ghost and Drew Campbell backing it, this was the song I was looking forward to hearing the most. Unfortunately, it's lackluster at best. The Tommie Brooklyn What's-His-Nuts Remix is better, but still easily forgettable.
- On the Bounce. Is this a boss song? And its difficulty doesn't make me want to swat a baby in the face with a car bumper? I declare shenanigans.
- Saber Wing and its remix. Maybe it's just me, but I don't hear what's so amazing about them.
- Horatio. It sounds great, but the Oni chart is ass, because...
- Shock Arrows. Konami, if you decide to continue this idea, please put some actual thought into it next time instead of pulling it out and messing with it at the most inappropriate times like a retard that just discovered his own dick.

...Oh, and one more thing. Why was I not informed that Konami added such a sexy new Zukin in X? She may be the hottest one since Maid-Zukin. I can't wait to play her story in SMM.

Saber Wing edit... 19 feet
Hooray for failing >_>
I should definitely be able to pass this if I get a better warm up.

I'm not quite sure how to rate it. If Xmix 5 doubles and Trigger are 18's, this is a 19 for sure.

---

Actually, I am really digging on the bounce a lot. To me, it sounds like a new flavor of DDR has been added.

---

Horatio edit... 17 feet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSaQRg8L9Kw
It's similar to Konami's chart, but still a lot harder.

Yay, I'm borrowing the game tonight and tomorrow!

The slowdown makes a lot of sense with no added steps if you start the first freeze with your Left foot and then alternate feet on each freeze. The last UD jump should have you turn right with your Left foot on the Up Freeze (LOL @ SPOILER TAGS), and you don't have to do any tricky maneuvers/spins. If you don't alternate like that (initially what I did), you can definitely spin a lot of stuff or switch feet on the freezes.

I have a pic & vid (though I'm not posting this yet) of Horatio Expert AAA (0 Greats) from tonight, but I'm not happy w/ the Perf count at all. I'll mess with the sync tomorrow and hopefully get it somewhere nearer to 50. (pic: horatio-expert.jpg

Edit: Since I'm getting downrated for everything I do here on these forums, I'm editing this old post to make a few notes:
Horatio Oni: 5 Greats "AAA" though not AAA by most mixes -- would have to borrow again to get that to 0
Trigger Heavy: 61 Perfects, AAA (PFC) -- the ending took several tries to get right, so I have a ton of runs with like 2.
Saber Wing: very fun song, AAA (PFC)
On the Bounce: AAA, 31 Perfects (PFC)
Flight of the Phoenix Oni: 6 Perfects, AAA (PFC)

I think it was a fun game, but the timing window is huge. I'm going back to arcade only since home version messes with my arcade MA. I also didn't really touch Street Master Mode, and I unlocked everything for Chris. I don't know what the % was for the overall game % or whatnot. Unh; God bless.

I did Horatio Expert AAA Perfect Full Combo 7 hours ago
Yestarday, I've played almost all licensed song with AAA PFC and Horatio as Extra Stage

Some things on DDRX I could use some insight on below:

I have been playing for awhile, I am at 89% complete for info mode and 100% for SMM. Completed every mission. Anyone have a guess as to what the 11% might be? I remember what was needed for SN2JP CS and that was crazy. I wonder if they carried a few things over. Also I never got an All Songs Played or Unlocked Message at all. I have played all songs outside of SMM and in SMM as well. Maybe we can share what we have and get to 100% who knows what it might be...but like 100% for SMM I got nothing. Nothing showed in info mode.

He didn't capitalize it, so I figured it was just a word.

Nice edits, NIQ9. THAT'S what Konami needs.

Cool, it's definitely a fairly fun mix to do it on! What pad setup do you have?

---

I don't have idea ... I've played with a friend's pad the last 4 days
My Horatio Expert AAA PFC with pad has more than 200 Perfects (997,6XX)
My friend leaves at least 2 months ... there is no other way ---> I must play only with controller because I don't have a pad

I'm stuck at 77% on information, SMM is at 100%, what else is there to do?

Doubles?

I know that in previous versions you get information by mastering each difficulty on Doubles.

---

Wow, DJ Sterf, you still got it. XP

I, surprisingly, like the steps to SABER WING (AKIRA ISHIHARA Headshot Remix) on all difficulties. Haven't had the chance to play them on pad, but when I have time, we'll see if they hold up.

---

Unlock courses?
Speaking of which, how do you do this? I played for a while and randomly got a course. I haven't played course mode yet, so can you just unlock more by playing that mode more?
Also, is there a boss rush-like course?

---

BOSS RUSH X is in this game, and is almost impossible to do with ONI meter.

And no, I unlocked courses but nothing new shows up in INFO.

Clearing each difficulty for each song at least once?... Just came to my mind ... oh and is it possible to rip the course banner graphics at the moment?

Also, what is the song played right before Pluto Relinquish in the Xmix 5 (overcrush)?
