The only way I foresee either the upcoming X-Box 360 version and the PS3 version to be saved is by DLC from X2 arcade, or at least better Konami Originals. It would be logical to release DLC for past arcade versions, but the problem there that would not be an ultimate money maker due to the fact of past versions with said songs in addition to the fact the songs are easily and freely accessible from multiple sources in Stepmania.

While that may be true, I think it would be easier to buy your favorite Konami originals and play them there rather than plug in your PS2 and switch between games just to play a couple of song on each title. I think that would at least a little, if not significantly, overpower the feeling of not needing to buy a song because you already own it on a previous release.

Well I tried Move and Step for the first time last night and it was horrible experience. The way the PS Move controller was set up was not well suited for what they wanted you to do. I couldn't get a Shake arrow to save my life, and trying to move from one side of the screen to the other was just as impossible. In fact I looked like a fool and here is why (though I admit I gave up like half way through the song), and please note I can play regular DDR quite well all the way up to Challenge.

Looks like the main problem to me is the fact that the mode was meant to use two move controllers and they didn't bother to cut notes when only one controller is used. Definite lack of foresight here on Konami's part, as I don't see how anyone is hitting all that reliably with just one. I played with hand markers almost exclusively on HP2, and a little bit on HP1, could AAA quite a few songs, even the hard ones, and yet I don't even think for one minute I'd touch this mode, at least not with one controller.

Here is some further proof of DLC. Here are some images I found within the game.

It's sad that my greatest hope for the Xbox version is that it doesn't have the giant firework show every time you step on an arrow. Those images really give hope for good DLC.

I will be getting the Wii version when it goes on sale next week at Best Buy. Hopefully I can sell the pad on eBay.

It's weird how the CD covers are 192x192 on the higher-def PS3. They're 256x256 on the Wii version.

Promising DLC, but it's all for naught if the 360 interface is as much a terrible, unplayable shitstorm as the PS3 one.

They'll have to re-rate X/2 content to fit on the 10 point scale and I feel this will end poorly. They'll probably use old ratings too; even though bag is a 13 on X2, they'll probably still call it a 10. Sigh. Why aren't we using the 18 point scale again, KONAMI?

But at the end of the day, if I could get a new interface without crazy note explosions and stupid chaining so I could actually see what I'm doing, I'd be way into a game that has (potentially) so much content as DLC.

An X2 AC port with all that DLC would be so good that it brings tears to my eyes Cry.

I know a lot of people don't like the look of this game. I'm sure many are judging based on video and pictures without actually playing the game. You, however, seem to be the one who exaggerates it the most. So there may be a few quirks to hammer out (the rating system not being one of them); it's a hell of a lot better than playing any 360 version. At least the PS3 game and controller aren't laggy pissfests. I like this game a ton more than the Universe series; a TON more.

Haha, yes, I rail on it a lot, and no, I haven't played it, but I honestly get lost reading the notes due to the flashiness, from following along in videos. I guess I'm just being a prick about it on the off-chance KONAMI really does read here and maybe in the future thinks to offer downloadable, or changeable themes (this was promised on the 2009 360 trailer). Offering a "classic DDR" interface for elitist snobs like me would be a great move to mollify the long-time DDR fans who do have an issue with the look, and I really hope that's something they can hash out sometime.

I have played Universe though, and I do have a lot of issues with it as well, but at the end of the day I could adapt fairly quickly (as long as we turned off background animations because they are seizure-inducing).

I also consider myself an elitist snob. For me, the theme is alright and the menu BGM tracks are awesome. My biggest gripes with the game are the kinda bland songwheel (although it does have a nice readable font for the songs) and the chain arrows. Those chain arrows make the arrows shiny and all the same color. There definitely should have been an option to turn those off. Other than that and the pitifully small on-disc songlist, I consider this a strong mix.

And judging from those CD jackets, there is more good stuff to come.

That is incorrect. The DLC will reflect upon the songs that the NA region has seen before. Then they'll throw EVERYTHING ELSE into the following folder:

http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e51/SSGotenksUFO/DLC_jk_pack15.png

:B


So the other folders will have about 50 or so songs and that one folder will have over 200. Talk about tacky. :B

But we aren't 100% sure of the number of DLC songs we'll get yet. :B

Are they really? because all the files provided here have always been 224x224...
